What's the Next Step? - Teens Turning Green

So I have been trying to put things together for the Green Team Meeting and I have been having some trouble. I can't get the maintenance department to contact me back. I talked to the Green Team Director and she said they are the most impossible people to deal with. So she told me to start from another venue. I decided to start with what I can do to educate my teachers. I have researched the markers that my teachers use on our white boards and know that they have harmful chemicals in them and that there is an alternative.

Here is my campaign idea...
I am going to buy some canvas, hopefully the biggest I can find. I will use the safe markers to make my poster and on the top of the poster I will write big...

HANDS AGAINEST HARMFUL CHEMICALS
   "We as students and teachers in the WFISD want to take a stand.
    A stand for something new, something better, something
    safer for our bodies. We as the WFISD body are
    commiitted to making this change to products that
    are safer for our generations and those to come.
    If you want to take a stand with us, use this marker
    to trace your hand and then sign your signature inside
    your hand. Let's be the change we want to see in our world"

I want people who are going to help me change this school be the ones that trace their hands. So when I get all these hands, what do I do? Who do I go to? City and Town Meetings? What's the next step?

I think the next step is definitely talking to your teachers and your principal. Communicate your thoughts and ideas and be passionate about them. Perhaps they can help you within your school make small changes (which are BIG ones truly). Also, you could, if you are truly committed to creating change and awareness, visit other schools and talk to your peers and organize events and such to bring awareness. Good luck and stay hopeful always. You are doing a wonderful thing and already have made a change.

The key to making environmental matters SEXY to the youth
written by Charles, May 05, 2010

I think the key to making green matters and environmental awareness top of mind with today's youth is to help them see that it does not have to be all dreary and dull. Often, green industries and sustainable living is seen as a hassle and a nuisance. If we could get more kids involved in projects that actually PAID them for their efforts, I am certain that we will breed a new generation of adult. One such opportunity is by a company called www.nuyello.com - they've launched the qorld's first online yellow pages that is aimed at undoing the damage of yellow pages print advertising. The company offers a very lucrative affiliate opportunity and so I would recommend them to youngsters looking to spread green-consciousness while at the same time making a buck on the side.
