A dozen young climate change activists expecting a discussion with White House staffers Friday instead got a meeting with President Obama himself.

The coalition also said: “The young leaders described the meeting as positive and expressed excitement about working with the Administration to transition America to 100% clean energy and protect the Clean Air Act.”
