This study focused on identifying the role of selected maritime students in climate change action and developing an information material to assist them in minimizing climate change. A quantitative research design with a descriptive approach was employed, targeting maritime students enrolled during the 2nd semester of SY 2022–2023 at the Philippine College of Science and Technology, Calasiao, Pangasinan. Using Slovin’s formula and stratified sampling, 284 students were selected as respondents. Data were collected through validated survey questionnaires and analyzed using frequency counts, percentages, and ranking. The study revealed that "driving cars/using transportation," "burning fossil fuels," and "cutting down forests/trees" were considered the top causes of climate change. Respondents most commonly participated in activities such as "driving less to minimize air pollution," "attending seminars/workshops about climate change," and "home gardening." Challenges encountered included "limited resources," "lack of interest," and "lack of knowledge about climate change." An information pamphlet was developed to support maritime students' climate change actions.
