Northeast Student Energy Summit

Northeast Student Energy Summit


Imagine being a part of history. Imagine walking in the street with hundreds of people demanding immediate, comprehensive and bold global warming policies. Imagine being a part of the largest climate demonstration to date in the country. Imagine spending a day being trained by top level organizers about how you can take action against global warming on your campus, in your community and in your state… Sound good?

Join us on March 23-25 in Boston, MA for the 5th Annual Northeast Student Energy Summit and make history.

The Interfaith March for Climate Rescue is a moral call for swift, bold, and comprehensive political action to address global warming. It starts in Western Massachusetts on March 16, 2007 and ends in Boston on March 24, 2007. On March 24 th there will be an interfaith service and a rally in downtown Boston. We’re hoping to make it the biggest climate action in the United States to date.


The 5th Annual Northeast Student Climate Summit is a way for students to join the Interfaith March activities, meet students across the Northeast working on similar issues and receive trainings about how to join the youth clean energy movement and push for clean energy policies on your campus, in your community and in your state. We’ll be joining the March 24 th climate actions. We’ll also be organizing an amazing series of skills trainings at Boston University throughout the whole weekend so youth will leave the Northeast Climate Summit ready to take on the challenge of a generation- global warming.

It’s time for youth to join together and demand a just, sustainable and clean energy future. Come to the Northeast Student Climate Summit. Bring yourself. Bring your friends. Bring your organization. Bring a busload of people from your campus. We’re rising to the challenge and we all need to be there.
