Finger Lakes Youth Climate Summit

The Finger Lakes Youth Climate Summit is a one-day climate and leadership conference that empowers high school students to create environmentally positive change in their schools and communities. Hosted at the campus of Hobart and William Smith each fall, participants:

  • learn about local, regional and global impacts of climate change;
  • explore environmental justice solutions and climate action initiatives;
  • network with peers from area schools;
  • develop a Climate Action Plan to tackle an actionable project at their school or in their community.

Today’s youth are our most vital resource for creating positive change for the future of our environment. Across the United States and around the world, youth climate summits are educating, engaging and empowering students to be agents of change in their schools and communities. Join the movement!
