Hi Everyone! As some of you may know, I am on the Board of Directors for Washington Green Schools. This is an organization that means a lot to me because I believe environmental education is a subject that all children should have the opportunity to learn about - even through remote learning.
Climate change is not a debatable subject. It has been obvious for years that the severity of environmental disasters has continued to accelerate. On a personal level, the smoke from the fires in the PNW were so severe this year that they caused my eyes to burn and gave me a bad cough. Despite the challenges, I considered myself lucky as I did not fare as badly as some of our most vulnerable people and children in our geographic area. These disenfranchised people are bearing the brunt of these hazardous changes to climate and thus, the topic of environmental advocacy is intrinsically tied to environmental justice.
We're at a pivotal moment where advocating for and teaching environmental education is more important than ever. Our children are the earth's biggest advocates, and I'm confident that they will be part of the solution to many of our problems. Can I count on you to help set our kids up for a successful future? Thanks in advance for your help!
