Brief Summary
The Campus Climate Challenge is a project of more than 30 leading youth
organizations throughout the U.S. and Canada. The Challenge leverages
the power of young people to organize on college campuses and high
schools across Canada and the U.S. to win 100% Clean Energy policies at
their schools. The Challenge is growing a generation-wide movement to
stop global warming, by reducing the pollution from our high schools
and colleges down to zero, and leading our society to a clean energy
future.
There has been a lot of talk about the problem of global
warming, but almost no one is talking about solutions – even though we
have everything we need right now to solve the problem. We already have
cars that get 100 miles per gallon, and the technology to get almost all of our
energy from clean sources like wind and solar power.
That’s where students come in. This is our problem,
and it’s up to us to be the ones to solve it, starting right here on
campus, right now. So we’re organizing the Campus Climate
Challenge, working to transform our schools, reduce our global warming
pollution down to zero, educate our fellow students about global warming
solutions, and show the public what’s possible.
Are you up for the Challenge? Over 300 high schools and
colleges have joined the Campus Climate Challenge. By 2008, over 1000 schools
will be participating!
