Teen-led Climate Education for Grades K-5

- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- We are members of Flutura Effect - a teen-led climate action team in Kensington, Brooklyn. We are worried about climate change and the lack of action needed to halt the process in the coming years. A lack of action is going to affect all of our futures and there is not enough education about issues of climate change in the elementary schools. We want to educate young children to impact future generations.
- What is the solution to the challenge?
- Teen-led climate teams, like ours, will create a program to train teenagers to go to elementary schools to do science experiments, play games, do art work and share information on various aspects of climate change with young students. High School students can pair with younger children to share insights and make younger children aware of these important issues.
