What Are You Worried About?

What’s keeping you from being a full-throated supporter for sustainable schools in your city? I can tell you about some of the apprehensions I had when I first got involved in the green schools movement:

• When school leaders say, “It will cost too much,” I’m not sure what to say.
• If I cause waves, it might cause problems for my kids with a teacher or the principal.
• What if I’m the only person at the school who cares about this stuff? I can’t do this alone.

What Motivates You?

When I founded the Go Green Initiative (GGI) 16 years ago, I only knew 3 things:

1. I wanted my kids to learn in a clean and healthy school building
2. I didn’t trust that I could leave it up to others to protect the natural resources my children would need in the future
3. I needed to educate myself on the issues to become a credible advocate

You’re Not Alone
