Turning Green

About Turning Green

Turning Green is a global student-led movement devoted to cultivating a healthy, just, resilient planet through education and advocacy around climate justice, environmental sustainability, and public health. With powerful solutions-oriented programs, scalable campus and community initiatives, and strong leadership and mentorship opportunities. Our key programs: Project Green Challenge: This powerful and diverse call to action features 30 days of environmentally-themed challenges that change lives, shift mindsets, and equip students with knowledge, resource, and mentorship to lead change on campuses and in communities. Following the 30 days of October each year, up to 14 Finalists are selected to attend the PGC Finals — an all-expenses-paid eco summit in San Francisco, California. Internship Program: Through our leadership development framework, we support opportunities for students to facilitate and activate widespread campus and community action. In-person and virtual year-round experiential learning opportunities provide students with valuable, transferable knowledge, skills, and mentorship. Our internships support our key programs, assist with project planning, strategy, and implementation, and focus on areas ranging from communications, writing, graphic design, data mapping, and more. Benefits include practical experience, flexible hours, and the opportunity to work with a powerhouse, passionate team of committed changemakers. Conscious Kitchen: CK addresses food equity, education, and access by shifting the paradigm around school food service while cultivating a local, ecological food system, and building nutrition literacy into meals. Through a collaborative, replicable approach, Conscious Kitchen partners with schools and communities to break the cycle of conventional, packaged, overly processed food, transitioning to meals based on five foundational attributes: fresh, local, organic, seasonal, and nutritious.
