The winners of Climate Change Connection's Youth Climate Video Challenge

CBC is a proud sponsor of Climate Change Connection's Youth Climate Video Challenge. Manitoba high school students were challenged to make a video about climate change. The goal of the initiative is to educate youth on climate change facts and solutions.  

"We were so excited to see the submissions by these creative and innovative high school filmmakers," says Jennifer MacRae, Public Engagement and Outreach Associate with Climate Change Connection. "Their unique and totally different perspectives on the subject of climate change really inspired us, and hopefully others." 

From all of the entries, eleven finalists were selected. You can watch all of the finalists on the Climate Change Connection website. Based on creativity, filmmaking skill and social media engagement, judges narrowed down their favourites to a top three. Check them out below.
