Youth in Action: Students Co-Write Legislation to Conserve Millions of Gallons of Water

The video highlights the efforts of students at Washington Middle School in La Habra, California, who identified water wastage issues in their school restrooms. They conducted research, raised awareness, and drafted a bill, AB 1343, to replace high-flow toilets with low-flow ones in K-12 schools across California. The bill was signed into law, promoting water conservation and collaboration between schools and water districts. The students share their journey and offer advice to peers interested in making legislative changes.
