  • Mission

    Climate Generation: A Will Steger Legacy empowers individuals and their communities to engage in solutions to climate change.

    About Us

    Climate change is defining this generation: everyone alive today. This generation has been the first to really experience the effects of climate change and will have the biggest influence on how we address it.

    Our organization was founded by polar explorer, Will Steger, based on his powerful eyewitness to climate change from over 50 years exploring the polar regions and his determination to engage people in the issue and solutions. Our culture of innovation flows from Steger’s entrepreneurial spirit and his accomplishments in exploration, education, and advocacy.

    We recognize the power of eyewitness accounts and personal story, acknowledging that as our world warms, we all have a climate story to tell. Our programs work to realize our vision: a world of resilient communities with equitable solutions to climate change.

    We provide educators, youth, policymakers, communities, and business leaders with the resources and opportunities to engage in solutions to climate change. Across these audiences, our programs work through three core pieces of engagement:

    • Build climate literacy
    • Develop powerful climate advocates
    • Elevate leadership

    Cause Areas Include

    • Community Development
    • Education
    • Environment & Sustainability
    • Volunteering
