Storytelling

Amplifying the Voices of Young Climate Leaders

Storytelling has the power to shift the public narrative on climate change and build the political will to take meaningful and swift climate action. One of the biggest problems the climate movement faces is combating the ongoing narrative spun by fossil fuel corporations.That’s why it’s ACE’s mission to empower young people to get involved in the climate conversation.

ACE harnesses the power of storytelling to humanize the impacts of climate change, inspire solutions to the climate emergency, and illustrate the benefits of the clean energy transition.To shift the climate narrative paid for by the fossil fuel industry, ACE’s award-winning storytelling lifts up the voices of young people across the world who are at the front lines of the climate crisis, using the power of their personal stories to drive systemic change. Every year, we produce hundreds of youth climate stories, explainer videos, and a variety of other on-the-ground videography work. Globally, our storytelling content reaches 10’s of millions of people across digital and social media channels.

ACE’s Youth & Climate Impact video series shares stories of young people from the Gulf South to the Ohio River Valley who are facing daily toxic realities from explosive fossil fuel development and alchemizing that destruction into meaningful climate solutions and leadership to take charge of their future. ACE’s YouthTakes series further collects and amplifies a multitude of youth thoughts and perspectives in conversation with one another on everything from timely climate legislation to the power of the youth vote to cast the deciding ballots in elections.

Our Day in the Life series features workers on the frontlines of the clean energy transition sharing about their work, the benefits and joys of working in the solar and wind industry, socializing clean energy jobs, and how others can join the sector. In Farmer for Renewables, we feature farmers and neighboring landowners who share how they personally and their broader community have benefitted from clean energy projects in their area to soften the ground and build positivity for responsible clean energy buildout.
