Climate Justice Now

Take Action Today to Demand Action on Climate NOW!

AYEA's statewide Climate Justice Campaign, in coordination with our partners and the growing international youth climate movement, demands bold action from policymakers. Youth leaders around Alaska have organized dozens of Youth Climate Strikes in the past year and are calling for the implementation of the State's Alaska Climate Action Plan. AYEA teen leaders were instrumental in elevating climate change among the public and elected leaders in recent years and helped establish the multi-stakeholder Climate Action Leadership Team (CALT), which AYEA teens are now calling to be reinstated.

It is time that the voice of the people is heard by our legislators and reflected in our states' approach to economic development and climate management. Our youth are leading the charge for a more just and equitable system to address the profound impacts of our changing world, and need your support

We cannot leave the weight of this work on the shoulders of our youth. Please fill out the form below to let our policymakers know it is their job to protect our future, TODAY!

Dear (policymakers),

I stand with youth leaders of Alaska Youth for Environmental Action (AYEA) to urge the Alaska State Legislature to:

  • Reinstate the Climate Action Leadership Team. 
  • Implement the Alaska Climate Change Action Plan Recommendations to the Governor, published September 2018.
  • Support climate change hearings and the reintroduction of State House Resolution 12 (HR12) that would create a Climate Policy Advisory Committee and Senate Bill 216 (SB 216) that would create an Alaska Climate Change Emergency Response Commission.

Our young people are reminding us of the beautiful, just, and healthy Alaska they want to live in. We believe the future of our state and the future of our youth depend on your climate action NOW!
