Waltham Students Present Sustainability Projects at Cooler Communities Science Fair

Students will present research projects, models, demonstrations, and interactive displays addressing questions such as: How do microplastics impact the food chain? Why are native plants important in Massachusetts? How can solar and water power generate electricity? Other projects explore monarch butterfly habitat loss, worm composting, ocean plastics, growing food locally, and the use of apps such as iNaturalist to better understand local ecosystems.
The Waltham Cooler Communities Fair is free and open to the public. Families, community members, and local leaders are encouraged to attend and celebrate the work of young climate innovators.
