Hold a campaign to embrace the cooler seasons: put on a sweater, celebrate winter solstice, or collect gently used cozy clothing to reduce your school’s impact when the snow is on the ground.

Tips:

  • Participate in National Sweater Day in February or host your own Ugly Sweater Day. Turn down the heat to conserve energy and make an impact. Hold a contest. Take photos.
  • The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. Celebrate the darkness with a power hour: make lanterns and turn off school lights to conserve energy.
  • Raise awareness about the impact of buying new clothes and then collect gently used clothing and coats to donate or share with your school community.
