About The Green Schools Alliance:
The Green Schools Alliance (GSA) is a non-profit program, created by schools for schools, to coordinate the concerns of the nation's 120,000 pre-K to grade 12 public, private and independent schools about climate change and the environment into collective action to protect our shared future. Inspired by Mayor Bloomberg's challenge to NYC institutions to reduce their carbon footprint 30% by 2030, the GSA launched in October 2007 with the support of the Mayor's Office, the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) and other national, state and local partners. www.greenschoolsalliance.org.
