Sometimes it can feel as if the only opinions that adults listen to are the opinions of other adults. But kids can make a huge difference—especially when they work together! You would be amazed at the difference that anyone can make if they believe in something, just like every scientist you've seen on iwaswondering.org!
For example:
* In 1989, an organization called kidsFACE (Kids for a Clean Environment) was started by 9-year-old Melissa Poe of Nashville, Tennessee. There are now 300,000 members worldwide! Check it out at www.kidsface.org.
* Earmuffs were invented by 15-year-old Chester Greenwood in 1958! Chester has changed the life of every person with cold ears ever since.
