Not only do our kids need a clean and healthy environment to live in now, they'll also inherit what we leave behind, and become responsible for sustaining it. That's why it's so important to develop a sense of stewardship and responsibility in our children, and involve them in activities that allow them to experience the outdoors.

The work of the Wisconsin Environmental Education Board helps children and students understand these important concepts, experience the wonders of nature, and learn how to safeguard our natural resources. The board's leadership in environmental education policy, and the financial assistance it gives schools and other organizations help our kids learn about protecting and conserving Wisconsin's water, keeping our air clean, sustainably managing our forests, using energy wisely, and maintaining habitat for fish and wildlife."
