EEEP School-Based Climate and Energy Education Project

(a NHLSCP led project)

 

This project began with one student - Adrian Huq - leading energy efficiency campaigns throughout the 2018-19 school year at Metropolitan Business Academy.  The success of the project led EEEP to apply for funds to expand the project into three new schools: the Sound School, Sacred Heart Academy, and Wilbur Cross High School.

 

The specific objects of the Project include:

- build student leader organizing skills.

- increase student, staff, parent energy efficiency awareness and action, so families save money and the community reduces GHG emissions.

- increase climate change action among students, in conjunction with New Haven Climate Movement Youth Action group.

- build on education/action strategies developed in year one.
