"The CSO is an unrivalled opportunity to develop your environmental knowledge and meet people with similar interests. It asks you to think beyond the traditional curriculum and gives you a glimpse into the decisions world leaders have to make about the climate. The CSO will stretch your environmental knowledge and enable you to become a better essay writer and scientist."

"Winning the ClimateScience Olympiad was so exciting. We thank ClimateScience for the opportunity and for the amazing community that was created out of the competition. My advice to anyone applying in 2022 would be to make sure you answer the questions precisely and, most importantly, have fun!"
