Project Earth Connecting Tomorrow's Environmental Leaders Around the World

摘要

A few years ago, a session hosted by Ecology and Environment, Inc. (E&E) of international environmental leaders at a retreat center in the heart of the Adirondacks led to a remarkable discussion on environmental education. Members of business and government interests from countries stretching from Russia to Brazil and Chile wondered how the internet could be used to connect tomorrow's leaders - our present day students - to share information on the environmental challenges facing planet earth. As the concept unfolded, the idea evolved into finding the right vehicle for teachers and students around the world to share their environmental ideas, solutions, and on the ground environmental projects.
