鈥淥ne thing that鈥檚 really important that we鈥檙e trying to emphasize with the Climate Teach-In is that it takes everybody to solve a global problem, and that this isn鈥檛 just the responsibility of environmental scientists, legislators or people who own major corporations. This is about everybody. So whatever group or student organization you鈥檙e a part of, there is a way where your expertise or your interest can contribute to building a more sustainable future,鈥 said Hargrove.
