Sustainability Tours for Youth
The Envirolution Sustainability Tour is an exciting five-day opportunity for Northern Nevada middle school and high school students to travel to some of Reno’s finest sustainability businesses and organizations to explore green careers, environmentally friendly practices, and learn about the local sustainability movement.
The Sustainability Tours are held during the Washoe County School District Fall breaks in October. A behavior change survey indicated that there was a 50% increase in knowledge about sustainability issues. Before attending the tour only 33% of the students were interested in pursuing green careers or incorporating sustainability into their future career. After the tour, that number jumped to 93%!!
