Pericleans host event to show commitment to environmental action

A group of Periclean Scholars from the class of 2011 supported the 350.org global action movement on Oct. 10 by continuing their work in the garden and outdoor classroom at Graham Middle School as part of the “10/10/10 Global Work Party.”

Check out 350.org website to see more of what people in every corner of the world did at more than 7,000 events registered for the day

The local project is one of many events that scholars are organizing to show their commitment to the environment as they gear up for another event they are organizing in Sri Lanka. The event is called the LEAF, or Leaders in Environmental Advocacy Forum, held at the University of Colombo in Colombo, Sri Lanka during winter term.

Stay tuned the possibility of a public webinar for LEAF. The scholars’ website is leafsrilanka.org.
