If we don’t talk about climate change, we won’t act to stop it. That’s why this week, we’re going behind the scenes of the 2024 USF Climate Teach-In and talking with Honors student Morgan Mathews and Professor Andrew Hargrove about the campus-wide event. Listen to learn how to get involved with a week of climate education-themed events, art, activities, and action from April 1 - 7 and how to make a difference after the teach-in.
