JOIN THE MOVEMENT

Want to make real, lasting change on your campus and combat climate change and biodiversity loss? You’re in the right place! 

Our remote programming supports you as you bring this movement to your campus and community. Join us for our Groud Up Advocacy Bootcamp or start by reaching out to your sustainability department encouraging them to become Green Grounds Certified. We can help you as you push your campus grounds to be more climate resilient and biodiverse. 

Ground Up Advocacy Bootcamp

Our Ground Up Advocacy Bootcamp is a cutting-edge training intentionally built for emerging leaders. This three-day program emphasizes coalition building, multimedia training, campaign strategy, and volunteer recruitment in addition to herbicide-specific education. The Bootcamp takes a look at pesticides and their impacts on human and environmental health, all while providing participants with the advocacy and organizing skills to enact change in their communities. Participants walk away with a deeper understanding of toxic chemicals, what it means to rewild spaces, the intersection of human and environmental health, and how these issues tie back to social justice and climate change. Our next bootcamp will be in August 2023.
