Some Suggestions for Environmental Education Week

It's National Environmental Education Week! Through the combined efforts of schools, nature centers, museums, zoos, and other educational institutions millions of students get to spend more time learning about the importance of caring for our natural environment this week in anticipating of Earth Day on the 22nd.

In honor of this week, Josh Thomas, leader of our sustainability and environmental education practice area here at Topics Education has shared some resources that can help enlighten and educate you around all things environmental.

For blogs on Youth & Nature check out Children & Nature Network and the National Wildlife Federation's Green Hour blog. For info on GreenTech side of things, Josh recommends GreenBiz and Earth2Tech. And other good ones include, Breakthrough Institute and Treehugger.

On a sidenote, this weekend Josh is speaking at the Charlotte Clean & Green Event about the benefits of children connecting with nature. We'll recap that event for you next week, so stay tuned!
