The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), in conjunction with Youth Speaks, presents “Bringing the Noise for the Earth,” a powerful performance featuring slam poetry and inspirational stories of change from young leaders across the country.
Since 2006, Youth Speaks has teamed up with the Robert Redford Sundance Preserve and USGBC to select a Brave New Voices (BNV) Green Team to speak on issues such as climate change and environmental injustice. USGBC’s Young Leaders and Youth Speaks BNV Green Team poets will take the stage and powerfully address the environmental issues facing their respective communities and share their common vision for a greener tomorrow.
These evening performances feature USGBC’s Young Leader Awards, a celebration of individuals between the ages of 13 and 25 who have demonstrated a commitment to sustainability and effected change in their schools, communities, and beyond.
