The First Rule of Climate Club

In this companion to Dress Coded, an eighth grader starts a podcast on climate activism and rallies her friends to create lasting change in their local community and beyond.Budding biologist Mary Kate is fascinated by everything about the natural world, so she is thrilled to be invited to participate in a special science class focusing on climate change and environmental issues. Things get even more exciting when she hears about a local grant competition and her class decides to turn their research projects into proposals in the hope of winning serious funding to bring their ideas to life.But climate change isn't the only challenge their suburban town faces. Because some of Mary Kate's classmates don't live there, and are bussed in from the city, their project is unfairly disqualified at the last minute. Now it's up to Mary Kate and her friends to not only make their climate projects a reality, but to make their school and town a more inclusive place.
