Local students travel far to see impacts of climate change

After almost two years of preparation, the students of Skagway School’s Climate Change Project made the trip to the Marshall Islands to see the effects a changing world has on that nation.

“For 13 days and 13 nights we lived, breathed, ate, drank and spoke the Marshallese culture – to the best of our abilities,” student Danny Brady said to the Skagway School Board on April 25.

Mikah Larhman, Kara Whitehead, Zach Breen, Denver Evans, Micah Cook, Steaven McKnight, Brady, Jessica Whitehead and Eliza Myers have been raising funds for the project since the School Board approved the excursion in October of 2015.
