ClimateFest is an evening of performances, advocacy, and an informal venue for educating the Tufts community about Climate Change. It aims to include as many campus organizations, academic departments, and Tufts’ community members as possible. Climate Change isn’t an isolated phenomenon, but a reality that affects everyone everywhere, in every discipline.

ClimateFest serves as a positive event to encourage individuals to become aware, get involved, and make change.

In 2006, Tufts hosted the first annual ClimateFest to kick off ECO’s Do It In The Dark! Campaign. In 2007 and this year, ClimateFest will serve as the culminating event for Do It In The Dark!

Sponsored by Tufts Office of Sustainability (OOS), Tufts Institute of the Environment (TIE), and Environmental Consciousness Outreach (ECO).
