ACT

For All Girl Scout Levels


Now that you have learned something about clean energy and interviewed a clean energy site host or hostess, it is time to complete the "Act" requirements of the Clean Green Power Patch. This is where your patch work can make a difference to help more people learn about clean, green power. You will make a difference as you complete both of the Act requirements:

  1. Complete an art, science, or communications project of your choice in the spirit of clean, green power.
  2. Spread the word on clean energy by displaying your project in a public setting and contacting the media about your project.

Act: Create a Project

In Act: Create a Project, we have provided many examples of project ideas to get your creative ideas flowing, but the opportunities are open to your imagination! Choose one science, communication or art project from the suggestions in Act: Create a Project or come up with your own idea to complete this patch requirement. The finished product should be of a quality high enough that you would be proud to display it in your local library, environmental center, kids' museum, youth hall, house of faith, school, or other public setting.

Act: Spread the Word

In Act: Spread the Word, we provide many ideas on places and ways you can display your project and tips on how to reach out to the media. Ask people you know for ideas on places or events in your neighborhood where you can display your project. Most likely, you will have several people share good ideas with you. Then reach out to the media. Two simple ideas are to submit a news release or a letter to the editor to your local paper. Other ideas are provided in Act: Spread the Word.
