Today’s Big Questions 

  1. How do we convince people that they should care about the environment?
  2. How can we deal with anxiety about climate change if we don't feel like we're making enough progress to help the planet?
  3. Small actions like “recycle” and “turn off your taps” have always been suggested as ways to help the planet, but what else can we do as young people to really make a positive difference?
