Who is eligible? All high school students who are passionate about climate education!
*Note: our core team members are mainly from the Boston area but we have members from California, New York, Virginia. No matter where you live, you're welcome to join!

Commitment

  • 1 hour core team call once a week (learn more about the different core teams here!)

  • 1+ hour work per week 

  • 1 workshop led per semester (we'll help you set it up and lead it!)

Why?
55% of teachers report never even mentioning climate change in their classrooms and when climate change is discussed it is often reduced to personal sustainability and polar bears. Spring Forward works to ensure all students understand the basic science, history, and far-reaching consequences of climate change while empowering them to make a difference. There is no climate action without education.
