Hat High students help write Alberta youth environmental white paper
Grade 12 student Aurora Bechard and Becca Whenham led Hat High participants in a province wide youth environmental white paper. Global Education organized the effort at Alberta Environment’s request to gather youth views on reducing emissions and shifting energy production. About 600 students joined virtual town halls and 1,500 completed surveys across central and north Alberta. The paper seeks government consideration as policies are rewritten, with youth urging real action and innovative ideas like micro generation and co generation to lower emissions without harming the economy.
