Nelly Carreño, a meteorologist for Univision 23 Dallas, visited Jose “Joe” May Elementary School on Tuesday, April 24, to encourage students to make small changes in their lives to help the environment.
The visit was part of Univision’s “Vive Verde” initiative, or “Live Green.” Some of those small changes, Carreño said, could be turning off the faucet while brushing teeth and recycling. She also answered students’ questions about weather-related phenomena, from blizzards and rainstorms to tsunamis and earthquakes.
After her presentation, students helped plant a tree near the school’s new playground.
