Dear students,

Your school, as an international school, has been selected to send you on a road trip through the USA. Your journey will start in New York City where we will meet, and finish as far west as possible. The objective of your trip is to show that green travel is possible. We will also ask you to take action: you must do something for the environment in every state you visit. You will have to write a blog during the trip to inform people.

Before leaving, you will submit your itinerary to our committee. I am sure you already have a lot of ideas. If you show that you are motivated and ready to take action, there is no reason why it should be refused.
Don’t forget, we are the United Nations. And united, we’re stronger!

Environmentally yours,

The Secretary General of the United Nations, António Guterres.

We've been selected!
