Brown University’s Environmental Leadership Lab (BELL) is held annually in April. The program teaches high school juniors and seniors about the interconnectedness of the environment with their lives in the hope that they will become agents of change in their communities. They partnered with the CRCL and brought 30 students to the greater New Orleans area in 2014. The students planted 2,000 stalks of bitter panicum along half a mile of beach on Fourchon Island.
