This is terrific

California middle schoolers were sick of roasting during heat waves. So they organized to install a heat pump at their school... and won! The California school bond likely on the ballot this fall should be funding heat pumps, not gas furnaces. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Adults doubted us. We found a way to shrink emissions at our middle school anywaywww.theguardian.com Heating and cooling our school had a huge energy cost. So we successfully researched, planned and proposed a heat pump on campus

Tackling climate change is like climbing the world's tallest mountain - with 8 billion other people - I say here. You climb and climb and the top seems like it's never getting closer. That's why, every once in a while, it's essential to stop and turn around, to be encouraged by how far we've come.

For Earth Day 2024, experts are spreading optimism – not doom. Here's why.www.usatoday.com Hope can fuel the action needed to keep tackling the climate crisis. Experts say tremendous progress has already been made.
