It’s time to step it up – Climate change is an urgent issue

Go Green Challenge Campaign

The Go Green Challenge is a movement among young people who care about the future of our planet to implement the Spare Our Planet Program in communities across the country. Starting in January 2012, we will launch friendly competitions in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York City.  

The Spare Our Planet Program is a student created and led competition designed to increase awareness of climate change and promote the use of biking, walking, public transportation, and carpooling, and reduce their community’s carbon impact.

Be a Go Green CHAMPION!

We are reaching out to young people across the country to:

  • Join the movement
  • Take the Go Green Challenge
  • Encourage friends to take action today
  • Pledge to raise awareness of the urgency of climate change
  • Advocate for a more sustainable planet
  • Make more climate-aware commuting choices to leave a smaller carbon footprint

Awesome, Count me in! I would love to help Spare Our Planet

Last fall, we launched Spare Our Planet at several high schools representing over 10,000 students.  And the results were impressive. Students flocked to adopt more sustainable choices, reducing their transportation related carbon impact by over 236,000 pounds of CO2 in just six weeks!  That’s the equivalent of removing 18 cars from the road for one year, or taking 13 homes off the grid for one year, or saving a section of Amazon rainforest the size of 11 football fields.

… and what we are about to achieve …
 
Our goal is to reach 2 million young people by 2012, when Spare Our Planet has the potential to reduce 86 million pounds of CO2, the equivalent of:

-- Removing 7,078 cars from the road
-- Taking 5,088 homes off the power grid
 
Or …

-- Saving 4,424 football fields of Amazon rainforest
