Help GS Green Generation
Donation protected
We are a group of students and teachers from the Green School in Bali who are extremely concerned about the biggest threat now facing our Earth - climate change. We have been studying this issue intensively and have been inspired to take action, because we understand the urgency of the world's current situation and the importance of raising our voices and standing up for our future.
This year, Paris will host what could potentially be the largest climate change summit ever: the COP21. Surrounding this conference will be events specifically targeted at cultivating collective action through youth and sustainable movements, which we will be taking part in.
We are now at a tipping point in the history of the world that will define the future of our generation and every generation to come. There have been countless attempts to reach a global climate agreement - businessmen, politicians, world leaders and activists have all been debating for our entire lives without coming to a consensus. Now it is time for us, as the future of the world, to step up and take matters into our own hands.
Our mission is to contribute to positive change during our time in Paris. We will represent the Green School as well as the island of Bali by working with organizations and schools on the ground, participating in the youth conference, performing an original Green School production, showcasing sustainable student initiatives, and taking a huge part in the overall collective call for action on the issue of anthropogenic climate change. This is a pivotal moment in the history of our planet. This is our world. This is our school. THIS IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY.
Only four percent of people attending the Conference of Parties are coming from various educational institutions. How many of those people do you think are students like us? This is why it is so important for us to be there - we are the voice of the generation that will inherit the earth.
But we can't do this alone. We will be flying to Paris on the 25th of November and we need your help to do so. We are asking you to contribute as much or as little money as you can provide in order for us to make and inspire change.
The total cost for our trip is close to $45,000 US. Our families are contributing $20,000 to this mission, because they believe in the urgency of action. We are calling on our community to match at least that amount. That is why our target is $25,000. The money we raise will go to transportation, accommodation, registration at events, and to cover all costs for living in Paris. We will also use the money in the weeks preceding the trip to offset the carbon emissions of the group and our trip through the plantation of mangroves, bamboo and more.
Join us in our journey by donating. Give a voice to our community, our island, our Earth.
Thank you.
