Guidance for Green Star School
Our program guides through the process in easy to follow do-it-yourself steps, for a school to obtain "Green Star School" award, and shows how to lead in environmental sustainability, while preparing the kids in the path to innovation.
What is unique about our guidance?
The uniqueness of our program is that our guidance is aimed at providing kids the knowledge, resources, and hands on experience, by utilizing their academic subjects and showing the new methods of innovation. Our program shows how a child can get ready to go in the path of innovation using environmental Science, Biomimicry, Project Management, and STEM(Science Technology Engineering Mathematics), while also incorporating leadership, team work, and collaboration.
Our program encourages children to be the leaders, remain curious and be creative, and provide opportunities to utilize their critical thinking and problem solving skills. Children learn to observe nature, to appreciate and learn from nature, and understand that nature has indeed solved most of our technological problems in a much eloquent and sustainable way.

Good and Green Radio Interview, with
Inconvenient Youth, Axel Clavier (14 years old), and
Founder of Green Kids Now, Pavan Raj Gowda (11 years old)
Good and Green Radio # 54: Inconvenient Youth – Green Kids Now - On June 17, 2011

In this interview Pavan states, "I truly believe that to achieve a cleaner and healthier planet, it is not enough, if one child, or one group, or one community is taking action. We need kids from all around the world from every community to take on leadership and drive their community to protect our precious planet.
Sharing of information is extremely important because what works well in one community might work well for another, and we need not spend time reinventing the same things, but move forward by either adopting existing ideas or innovate new solutions."
