Grade 7 students are learning about environmental sustainability in school, but they are rarely given the opportunity to apply what they have learned and have a positive impact on the environment. This program assists the students discuss what they think about environmental sustainability and gives them the opportunity to express their opinions to others through a magazine. The students also discover entrepreneurial skills by creating an environmental program at their elementary school to engage all of the other students, and have a positive impact on the environment.
