Why It Matters

Young people worldwide are demanding climate education. They know it’s their key to addressing and developing solutions to the climate-altered future they are facing. Their calls are joined by educators and environmental experts across the globe, who recognize that climate education is the cornerstone for informed, future-oriented decision-making.

NY Sun Works understands this need. Since our inception, we have been committed to delivering hands-on, inquiry-based science, sustainability and climate education to K-12 grade students throughout New York City. Our program ignites scientific curiosity, engages students in investigation and research, and fosters a passion for environmental stewardship that prepares today’s youth to become the scientists, innovators, and decision-makers of tomorrow. 

Together with our community of educators and supporters, we’re proud to be meeting the moment on climate education and helping students build the tools they need for the future they deserve.
