I was on the Plant Powered Youth Steering Committee with Friends of the Earth and worked towards getting plant-based meals and milks in schools. From this, I advocated for plant-based yogurt at my old high school! I also lobbied congress to support the Healthy Future Students and Earth Act. I will be continuing this advocacy in college.
