Green Schools Initiative : Share Your Story: What inspired you to care?

Share Your Story: What inspired you to care?

We are asking people - students, teachers, parents, people like YOU - to share your stories about what inspired you to care about your school, your community, and your planet. We want to better understand what motivates people to get involved and take action. Is it loving a place? playing in nature? having a great teacher or mentor?

Please share your story with us. And then get inspired by reading other people's environmental inspiration stories.
