Boston Latin School Students make Green Roof YouthCAN on Real School Makers

At The Boston Latin School -- America's oldest school -- the Youth Climate Action Network, or BLS YouthCan, is a vibrant center of student activity, even on a beautiful spring day when many students enjoy the warmth outside.Guided by teacher and mentor, BLS teacher Cate Arnold, students of school lead the community in sustainable efforts. They assist in the design of a novel "Green Roof" which would come atop a proposed expansion of the school's science center. Students of YouthCAN don't only stay inside, they move on to MIT -- the Massachusetts Institute of Technology -- where a Youth Summit on Climate Change energizes an assembly of high school students. At the State Center at MIT, students brainstorm ideas with a focus on the 2013 theme of water. Students embody the new informal motto of the Boston Latin School -- the oldest school, the newest thinking. ~-~~-~~~-~~-~ Please watch: "Rocketman David Random on The Creators of SomeCity Episode 201"    • Rocketman David Random on The Creators of ...   ~-~~-~~~-~~-~
