The thing that’s so unique about Teens for Food Justice is that it’s taking the science, and technology, and engineering, and partnering it with social justice. Because this is really what we need. We need our kids to be prepared to go out and hopefully make this world a place where people have access to food in a sustainable way, and we take care of our planet.
