Wellness
About Thrive2 Initiative
Thrive² is a Healthy Air Initiative designed to empower individuals to take control of their indoor air quality.
The Thrive² Initiative integrates wellness practices to support better sleep, recovery, and healing while fostering overall well-being. It empowers youth, schools and organizations with climate literacy, offering actionable pathways to engage in climate solutions. By utilizing environmental data, customized curricula, interactive school and community presentations, Thrive² raises awareness and deepens understanding of climate challenges, positioning climate education as a vital component of learning and action.
The purpose of the exponential² is to emphasize how one person can inspire one —whether it’s one post; one home; one classroom; one school; one business ; one community- to thrive and take control of their indoor air quality.
