Taking Action

Sunday, Oct 27, 2019

Young people around the world are demanding that society confront the climate crisis with a new level of urgency—the urgency required for them to have a future without dread. They are demanding intergenerational justice + giving us all an opportunity to rethink and recommit.

This new youth movement inspires our exhibit featuring hands-on learning about solutions for the climate crisis; a space to understand barriers to their implementation; + a concrete invitation to meaningful civic engagement and collective action.

Sponsor: The Climate Museum

Date: June 1 - October 27, 2019 Taking Action will be staffed primarily by high school students, open 11am-9pm on Fridays + Saturdays, 11am-5pm on Thursdays + Sundays prior to the end of the public school year, with extended hours during the summer months.

Location: Governors Island
