Youth Climate Institute’s Post

It's almost action project season and we couldn't be more excited! Every year, each #YouthClimateInstitute completes an action project that addresses a climate change concern in their community. Students work together to address food waste, fast fashion, water quality, green space, invasive plant, or another climate concern relevant to their lives. And they have a huge impact! Last year alone, there were 33 #YCI action projects that: - Had a positive impact on 11,500+ residents in Maryland and Alabama - Installed 300+ native trees and plants - 700+ bags of trash and litter removed from school grounds and surrounding communities - 1,300+ hours of community service completed by students Keep an eye on our socials and newsletter to stay up to date on action projects for the 2024-2025 school year!
