Each GWAT also commits to a community activism project.  We help new teams research to discover projects that will make the most difference in their school or community..and then DO IT!    There are two projects that Kids vs Global Warming has initiated and supports.   Our voices matter!

Sea Level Awareness Project

SLAP is a community activist project designed to raise awareness of sea level rise in coastal cities.

We installed the first nine poles on June 29th, 2008, along the beach promenade in Ventura  and we had an awesome event with youth bands, local speakers, and a youth global warming rally down California street. 

We are expanding this project through groups of youth throughout the coasts in California, DC and NY.  If you live in a coastal community and want to get involved, let us know!

Planting Trees to Save the Earth!

We encourage all new teams to plant trees at their school to make their commitment to fighting global warming something concrete and real.

Imagine how awesome that would be if every school in our country planted 10 trees? 

We are partnering with Eco-Gear, an awesome organic/recycled totally green tee shirt company in Canada.  They sell tee shirts and donate money to buy trees for GWATs to plant.  It works out for everyone.  We get to save the planet together!
