The Green Schools Alliance community connects and supports more than 13,000 Sustainability Champions, representing more than 8,000 schools, districts, and organizations in 48 U.S. states and 88 countries.  Collectively, these champions influence nearly 5 million K-12 students across the globe to make the tools more accessible to sustainability champions worldwide. The Alliance works through our international coalition of schools, rooted in the idea that collaboration brings the greatest fundamental change for sustainable learning environments and communities. As hubs of communities, schools can help transform markets, policy, education and behavior, increase community resilience, mitigate climate change, and prepare citizens to think and act in new and creative ways today, so future generations can thrive. 

With over 130,000 preK-12 schools across the country serving over 150 million students, the preK-12 education sector is uniquely positioned for catalytic impact. For over a decade the GSA has grown the green schools movement by facilitating collaboration between and within schools to address our critical environmental challenges, such as climate change. As laboratories of learning, schools are powerful levers for change for students, staff, and the broader community.
 
The GSA's flagship START program is a game-changing tool in the transition to a more sustainable, climate-resilient future. START: Sustainability Tracking and Roadmap Tool provides the essential technical infrastructure schools need to streamline sustainability data collection, benchmarking, goal-setting, and to galvanize school staff and students toward methodical, results-oriented sustainability action.
