About

The Chicago Climate Youth Coalition is a collaborative of Chicago area high school students coming together to activate our voices and talents to address the climate crisis. We are a part of Climate Reality Chicago and work closely to make real change in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.

We aim to unite the various environmental clubs of the Chicago Metropolitan Area to promote coordinated action, sharing of resources, and guide new/smaller clubs in the climate action movement.

The current focuses of our coalition are educating students on the climate crisis, making school cafeterias more sustainable, passing a clean energy bill in Illinois, and securing commitments from our schools to 100% renewable energy via the Green Schools Campaign
