If knowledge really is power, then Community Climate Collaborative is giving area youth the keys to the kingdom. In partnership with the Virginia Discovery Museum, the nonprofit has distributed more than 3,000 Climate Action Kits to fourth and fifth graders in Charlottesville and Albemarle, helping them learn about solar and wind power. The kits include a classroom energy scavenger hunt, an art project, a DIY garden, a solar-powered night light, a water-leak detection activity—and maybe even the power to change the world.
