Due to the aberrant nature of global weather in recent years, climate change has become an important issue in the national and international forums. This paper discusses a way of building intercultural virtual platforms in the social networking sites to coordinate the secondary school students and teachers from diverse corners of the world on a common platform where they can disseminate their voices on climate change issues. Keywords: Social networking, Climate change education, and Global warming
