Our children are one of the first generations to grow up almost entirely indoors, spending up to most of their time indoors and only 1% outdoors. Our children suffer from increased obesity, asthma, ADD, and allergies more than any other generation. In addition, they are increasingly detached from the natural world; they do not understand how natural systems work or even where their food comes from. How can we expect them to inherit and address the vast issues facing our world today, if they cannot understand the importance of sustainably managing our resources?
We are asking you to give to the Environmental Educators of North Carolina so we can imagine a world where our children are immersed in outdoor learning and adventure. People who enjoy the wonders of the natural world will strive to protect it. Let's make that happen for more kids.
