The student Environmental Action Coalition (SEAC) was started after a University of North Carolina student published an ad in a Greenpeace magazine in 1988 requesting that there be some kinds of international, students – based coalition of environmental activists. Now SEAC includes more than 1,500 different high schools and colleges around the world. The site’s primary goal is to raise awareness and encourage activism about current environmental issues among students and youth. This page is a starting point for those interested in the social and political aspects of these activities.
