Schools for Climate Action Named Finalist: American Climate Leadership Awards

To honor and recognize achievements in local, regional and national climate advocacy and action, ecoAmerica has selected Schools for Climate Action as one of 10 finalists for the 2022 American Climate Leadership Awards! This organization of Sonoma Academy student climate activists, led by Sustainability Educator Nancy Metzger-Carter, is a non-partisan, grassroots, youth-adult campaign with a mission to empower schools to
speak up for climate action. 

Each of the ten finalist organizations receives a $10,000 award, a trophy, and an opportunity to appear on ecoAmerica's "Let's Talk Climate" broadcast in June. Schools for Climate Action also advances to the next round of judging, where they are in the running to receive a $50,000 prize! The winner will announced at the American Climate Leadership Summit on March 28. 

Congratulations to Schools for Climate Action for this national recognition of their climate advocacy, and good luck in the final judging round!
