Hear what Massachusetts students have to say on environmental curriculum standards

Listen as New Bedford Light reporter Colin Hogan interviews Sara Karp and Jonathan Lan, two of the many students who wrote the legislation that looks to introduce new learning standards. If passed, it would make two subjects – environmental science and civics – cornerstones of what Massachusetts students learn.

Sara and Jonathan share insights from their journey, including how writing legislation taught them about transparency in government, the power young people have to make change, and what it means to hold onto hope.
