Luke Meyers had a wish, and his family, friends, fellow students, and the entire community are helping make his wish become a lasting and meaningful legacy.
The Greenwich High School sophomore and Seaside Center volunteer, who lost his battle with cancer in 2019, planned a career working on climate change mitigation. He saw as his life’s mission the urgent need to spread awareness of the risks caused by global warning, and to seek solutions to address the impact that climate change is having on both a global and local level.
Luke contacted the Make-A-Wish Foundation about installing a climate change education exhibit at the Bruce Museum Seaside Center. He wanted the exhibit to focus on sea-level rise, the impacts on Long Island Sound marine life, and most important, to inform people on what actions they can take to halt global warming.
