Whether you are a member of an eco-club, have a general interest in the environment, or want to know where to start, we want to hear from YOU!
Youth Connect 4 Climate:
We know that thinking about the future while we are faced with so many important environmental issues can be stressful and overwhelming. Where do I start? How do I get support for my ideas? Are there other young people that care about the environment too?
These questions are the reason that the BGYN created the Youth Connect 4 Climate program. Youth Connect 4 Climate provides both online and in-person activities such as:
- Special Guest Speakers
- Eco-film Screenings + post-film discussions
- Hikes and Opportunities to Connect with Nature
- Learning about Climate Change terms such as adaptation, mitigation, resiliency
- Hands-on Habitat Restoration and Clean Up events
- Invasive Plant Removals
- Event Greening at Popular Burlington events
- Special Events and Webinars
- Volunteering for our Social Media Subcommittee
And more!
