About
One More Generation (OMG) was founded in 2009 by 8-year-old Carter Ries and 7-year-old Olivia Ries. OMG’s mission is to clean up our environment and help save endangered species for at least One More Generation… and beyond.
At the International Young Environmentalists Youth Summit (IYEYS), Olivia and Carter presented their Plastic and Recycling Awareness Program. They explained how “Precycling” is more important that recycling. OMG also showed the documentary Plastic Paradise by Angela Sun. Afterwards, they hosted a live Skype Q&A session with Angela, where students learned how to get involved with plastics-free initiatives.
