Earth School

Quests for students around the world to celebrate, explore and connect with nature.

Let’s Begin…

Our food comes from the store, right? Not exactly. In this adventure we'll
 explore the origins of what we eat, and learn about the impact our diets
 have on the environment. We’ll also see the surprising role bugs play in
 our food systems. (They pollinate 1/3 of our food and educator
Emma Bryce shows us they are actually pretty tasty and high in protein!)
 After the video, continue on to other sections to learn more, interact, act,
and share.
Watch the video...The Food We Eat
  1.  click on the side menu THINK
  2. DIG DEEPER
  3. DISCUSS
  4. ...AND FINALLY         SECTIONS ON THE WEB PAGE.
