Individual Student Submissions Page
GenAction is a national community of young climate heroes from
K-12. Together we are on a mission to inspire youth to take climate action.
​
To win the contest, students are invited to submit a video that answers the question, "What does Climate Action mean to you?" Videos can be anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Bonus points for creativity like drawings, acting, poems, or acting out a climate action!
​
In addition to entering the contest, the most engaging videos could be showcased nationally during our GenAction Earth Day 2024 campaign (with your permission of course).
​
So, what does climate action mean to you? We can’t wait to find out!
