"We are not taught this comprehensively in our schools. We're told maybe, at max, that it's an issue. Maybe at max we know that there's greenhouse gases. But that's a surface-level lesson." - Sarah Weintraub, 18, 350NH Youth Team-member

The movement's primary goal has been to attack climate change by growing grassroots support in New Hampshire for renewable energy while fighting the expansion of fossil fuels.
