Middle School Environment Presentation

the problem:

One of the easiest and most effective ways to start a global movement is by education. In order for Texas as a state, and College Station as a city to make a difference in the world, we all have to work together. Our high school organization receives negative feedback, so in order to help the student we attend school with, and will someday in the future we put together a presentation in order to educate younger students, before they make close minded decisions about the climate change/environment cause.

vital stats:

people impacted:

325

people involved:

8

why it's important:

In order to address environmental education we visited a middle school in our school district, with a video, game, question and answer section, and an informational lesson. Collectively the presentation had all the facts, and addressed all aspects of climate change, especially emphasizing that there are other factors to rising temperatures other than just human consumption.
