We welcome you to join us and thousands of others around the world for a full week of fun events, discussions, activities, and learning during the 3rd Annual USF Climate Teach-in.

WHY

If we don't talk about climate change, we won't act to stop it. The Worldwide Climate Teach-in gets Honors community members and our fellow Bulls talking about climate solutions. As we work together towards a more sustainable future, we’ll help mobilize thousands of people to focus on the critical climate justice work ahead, and our shared sustainable future.
