Students put the heat on Congress for action on climate change

To kick off the Spring semester, student climate change activists are organizing five days of demonstrations, from January 29 to February 2. This season’s Campus Climate Challenge, “Rising to the Climate Challenge: Visions of our Future,” will put the heat on a new U.S. Congress to begin an aggressive national power shift on global warming.

Learn more and register now to participate in the Climate Week of Action. The first 1,000 campuses (including high schools and Canadian campuses) who register will be offered the chance to host a free campus screening of "An Inconvenient Truth." The Campus Climate Challenge will send you the DVD with public screening rights.

The Campus Climate Challenge is a joint campaign of more than 35 organizations working together to fight for a clean, just and renewable energy future. Coalition partners include environmental groups, youth and indigenous peoples groups and some state PIRGS.
