Join The GSA: The Commitment

The Green Schools Alliance seeks to remove obstacles for all schools to participate. Therefore, membership in the Green Schools Alliance is FREE, based only on a commitment of environmental leadership.

A school joining the GSA at the Climate Steward level pledges to calculate their school’s carbon footprint by establishing an energy and carbon emissions baseline, and Achieve carbon reductions over time.

Some schools choose to join at the Climate Champion level, pledging to reduce their school’s carbon footprint by at least 30% within 5 years, and achieve Carbon Neutrality by 2020.
