Adirondack Youth Climate Summit

The Adirondack Youth Climate Summit combines plenary sessions and workshops in a fun, yet powerful, 2-day educational experience. At the Summit, students will develop a climate action plan that they can use to implement climate solutions in their own community. Young people will leave ready to accelerate change in their lives, schools and communities.
Registration for the 2026 Adirondack Youth Climate Summit is now open!

Please reach out to Garrett Marino, Youth Climate Leadership Coordinator, at gmarino@wildcenter.org with any questions.
