Athletes bring climate change to the global stage.

Athletes and sports professionals have an up close and personal relationship with the climate-they are, quite literally, in it all the time. To train or to compete, skiers and snowboarders need snow. Bicyclists and soccer players need good weather.
Connect4Climate and the University of Warsaw co-hosted Be the Movement, an international workshop addressing the means of expanding and strengthening the global climate change movement during the November 2013 United Nations-sponsored climate change talks (UNFCCC COP19) in the Polish capital. The workshop was an inspiring gathering of climate change activists, youth and concerned professionals.
Hundreds of youth sent in their climate change films from more than 70 countries around the world. After taking on the difficult task of selecting only a handful of these powerful stories, the Action4Climate jury has reached its final decision and selected the award-winning films.
