California Middle and High School Students:

Climate Storytelling Contest submissions are due May 28, 2026

What if storytelling can help us understand those feelings and teach us something about climate change? The California Coastal Commission invites you to answer the prompt below through a podcast, photo essay, or narrative essay.
