As citizens and stewards of our planet, high school students are in a unique position to become active agents of environmental change. Fortunately many are interested in learning about and taking responsibility for your environment. In addition, they are familiar with today's tools and technologies that can help influence others to create an impact beyond their local community.
The Siemens We Can Change the World Challenge gives teens the opportunity, tools and inspiration to become agents of change. Beginning August 24, 2011 through March 15, 2012, high school student teams from across the country are challenged to create sustainable environmental improvements that can be replicated around the globe.
