REevent:
The REevent is a great opportunity to educate, raise
awareness, and build momentum around the ever-growing Turning Green movement. It will demonstrate the ease,
accessibility, and appeal of an all-encompassing eco lifestyle. We hope to
inspire our audience of high school and college students, as well as adult
collaborators and community members, to opt for choices that protect personal
health and that of the environment.
Through this event and related actions and initiatives, we hope to establish
additional Turning Green chapters at
middle schools, high schools, and colleges nationwide.
We are
challenging peers, parents, and community members to consider how they can
REnew, REcreate, REduce, Regenerate and REthink the choices that they make
daily in each aspect of their lives. This event will help start the process.
