Support Environmental Education for America’s Children

The Issue

Ask Our Leaders to Cosponsor the No Child Left Inside Act! Today, Americans face many complicated environmental challenges that impact our jobs, health, security, and quality of life. Part of the problem lies in an education system that has cut back on instruction related to the environment and eliminated many meaningful outdoor activities. These include field trips that enable children to foster a connection to nature and the environment.  We need to reverse this trend and teach our children about our planet and the environmental challenges we face. The No Child Left Inside Act will provide these future generations of environmental stewards with the tools necessary to make informed choices about the world in which we live. Please urge your members of Congress to cosponsor this critical legislation!
