Sabrina Zhang and Jack Prater on The Earth Prize and Global Environmental Projects

On this episode of the Getting Smart Podcast, Tom Vander Ark is joined by a high school student Sabrina Zhang. We are also joined by Jack Prater, one of Sabrina’s teachers at Polytechnic School in Pasadena, California. They recently collaborated as a mentor/mentee team in The Earth Prize competition, a $200k global competition for students to create solutions to climate-related challenges.

We’re really just trying to provide the resources the students need, they lead the conversation.
