Climate&Me: Edge Venuti

Meet Edge Venuti, 18, who is taking climate action by serving as the youth representative for the Maine Climate Council's Coastal and Marine Working Group. As a member of Maine Youth for Climate Justice and a student at the University of Maine studying Environmental Science and Ecology, Edge is speaking up to help shape the Maine Climate Action Plan update in 2024.

Edge's story is part of our new Climate&Me initiative to help young Mainers find their place in climate action. By combining your interests, hobbies, and strengths with the needs of your community, we’re supporting young folks across Maine to take action on climate.
