Green Youth Movement

 

Big shot out to Ally Maize !! This young little earth loving lady is doing it big and its all for Nature's sake. I met her through Tyler Barnett and she's someone I feel the world should know more about. I have to get a bookmark in her hands asap. Look down and get more clarity on her charity !! - thai

 

 

 

 

What inspired you to create such an intense charity at an young age ?
 
The genesis of my inspiration lay with Al Gore’s famous documentary “An Inconvenient Truth”.  My science teacher showed us this documentary ine day in class, and i was stunned at the graphs, lectures, and numbers i saw.  The film motivated me to become proactive and assume responsibility as a member of the next generation, as we are the ones who will ultimately face the negligence of our ancestors. After watching this film, my age didnt even cross my mind when i decided i had to do something to help change.
 
 
 
 
 
Is it hard to this while doing high school ?
 
It is a challage running GYM and being a highschool student simutaniously.  It would be much easier to expand GYM's data base if i had all day to work on it, but the reality of it is that i dont.  I miss a good amount of school to visit elementary schools to talk, or to attend meetings, but i always make sure to keep up with my school work.
 
 
 
 
 
How do you have fun when you aren't being a fly charity Founder ?
 
I do a lot of things to have fun when im not working on GYM.  Like any teenager, i love hanging out with my friends, going shopping, going to parties, and going to the beach.
 
 
 
 
 
 
What kind of music do you jam out to ?
 
I have a very ecclectic taste of music.  I like hip hop and pop but i also like techo and rap.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Do you have any pets ?
 
I have two dogs- oscar and penny and a cat, chyna maize
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
How do you relax ?
 
To relax, i like watching TV, reading the paper, eating food, or playing outside.
 
 
 
 

Green Youth Movement's goal is to educate kids all over the world on living green, and to one day establish this very important information as part of the curriculum in our elementary schools.  The mission of GYM is to educate kids and teens about environmental awareness, eco-friendly behavior and small steps that collectively embraced by this age-group can make a big difference for the future.

My name is Ally Maize and I am passionate about the environment and I am taking a stance to help with issues regarding global warming.  I have built this site not only as a resource for those people seeking information but for those people who want to try to make a difference and help our environment.

As founder of GYM, I hope to one day garner the support of politicians and educators to create a practical and research based environmental course of study that would ultimately become integrated in every elementary school education curriculum across the nation.

It is my belief that providing youth with meaningful and practical methods of conserving and utilizing resources is the key to changing the direction of global warming.  As the effects of global warming continue to advance from a theoretical construct to a reality, it is necessary that each of us assume responsibly to make a difference. Establishing The Green Youth Movement has been my way to embrace what I regard as one of the most significant issue that plagues our future.

GYM aims to enlighten young children and their parents about the vulnerable state of our environment and challenge them to think about the world around them.
