Supporting green, healthy schools during the COVID-19 pandemic
The pandemic disrupted the K-12 education system across the globe and curbed much of the hands-on work to improve school environments. To this day, we are seeing the impacts of the pandemic in our schools. To help you act in the midst of changing conditions, we put together lessons and activities to do from home or remotely to keep our students and our planet healthy.
