California Academy of Sciences cuts youth program after teens show solidarity with union

The California Academy of Sciences abruptly dissolved a youth group for climate change and terminated its staff coordinator earlier this fall, after several teenage members distributed flyers in solidarity with the museum workers’ union. The museum created Youth Action for the Planet in October 2023 as “an environmental action hub” for young people who care about the natural world to sharpen leadership and advocacy skills.
