🌍Youth Climate Change Conference
A group of Dane County residents, most of whom are UNA-USA members, concerned about climate change and the role youth play now and in the future, are organizing a conference on November 6, 2021 to address this issue. The conference, to be held at the Oregon High School Innovation Center will be for students from Dane County high schools. The conference will connect the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and UN Climate Conference of Parties (COP26) in Glasgow, Scotland to local climate concerns and initiatives in Dane County. The goal of the conference is to energize youth to network among themselves and to become involved in their schools and local government to make a difference.
The conference is being planned in conjunction with the Dane County Office of Energy and Climate Change and the Dane County Youth Environmental Committee.
