an Eco-Rep’s reflection on the new Vermont Student Climate Coaltion

With the help of schools across the state of Vermont, we have created the Vermont Student Climate Coalition (VSCC).  Our mission statement is to be a network of Vermont students committed to fighting for sustainability and climate justice as a medium for intersectional social and economic progress.  Through democratic student power, we are fostering a community that supports campaigns at both the institutional and statewide level and develops strong leaders to sustain long-term action for systemic change.  Our first event will take place in late April around Earth Day where we will finalize the details of our coalition.  If you are interested in becoming part of a group that is making a positive and powerful change please contact me at jonathan.delabruere@mymail.champlain.edu
