Leadership and Environmental Action Forum (LEAF): Day 2


Day 2 of the Leadership and Environmental Action Forum (LEAF) featured skills workshops hosted by a variety of schools and environmental organizations. In hands on workshops, students learned how to make worm bins, produce recycled paper, create mosaics from reuse materials, design environmentally themed comic books, and communicate about climate change.
Day 2 ended with meetings in school groups to reflect on LEAF and begin planning for next year.
