More About this Group

How can we integrate efforts to make school environments healthier, reduce schools’ ecological footprints, and encourage communities to consider solutions to environmental issues? Schools can integrate these efforts, and this group can help you learn more about what a green school is, how to green your school, or how to develop or initiate programs that “green” schools. Join this group to find teacher resources for the classroom, take action, and join the conversation for a greener, brighter future!
