ALBEMARLE COUNTY, Va. (WVIR) - Some Albemarle County elementary school students are now proud owners of climate action kits.
“Our goal is that they have a sense of agency. They can be part of the solution when it comes to climate,” Teri Kent, the director of programs and communications for the Community Climate Collaborative, said.
Agnor-Hurt Elementary School partnered with the Community Climate Collaborative and the Virginia Discovery Museum to deliver 35 kits to fourth graders to teach them about renewable resources. Each kit is filled with projects like homemade windmill activities and learning how to make reusable bags.
