On this edition of Your Call, we're joined by three winners of this year's Brower Youth Awards.
Every year, the awards recognize the work of six young leaders who are making strides in the environmental movement. This year’s winners are organizing for restoring mangroves in coastal areas, protecting endangered Southern Resident orcas, getting black and brown girls outdoors, and more. We'll discuss their important work and find out what young activists are doing to solve the climate crisis?
