Giving a speech that evokes emotion and also compels individuals to take action is the foundation of making impactful change. Learning to write, edit, and effectively deliver a speech in a public setting is a big learning curve. However, this is a real world skill that empowers students to make their voices heard. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, it is important for teachers to spotlight inspirational women who are making a difference with the climate crisis and to inspire students to create their own climate change persuasive speech.
