About This Lesson
At EarthEcho, our mission is to inspire young people worldwide to act now for a sustainable future. Educators, parents, and community learning programs are all essential in this process- providing youth with the knowledge, tools, and opportunities to be catalysts for change. To support our youth in looking at the world around them with a critical and innovative eye, we have provided standards-aligned educational resources to help support biodiversity education in both formal and informal learning environments as we set out to preserve, protect, and repair natural resources in our own backyards.
The OurEcho Challenge is a STEM competition that empowers young changemakers to take a closer look at biodiversity in their communities. Young leaders will first identify threats to local ecosystems and then propose solutions to help preserve, protect, or repair those natural resources.
