Environmental education connects Nebraskans to the natural world through meaningful outdoor experiences, hands-on curriculum, and informal learning opportunities that engage people in concepts we all need to understand; how our natural systems work, how to interact responsibility and connect with our environment, and how we can protect our natural resources for all current and future generations of Nebraskans. Join fellow educators, conservationists and environmental enthusiasts for the next Nebraska Environmental Education Conference, and join fellow Nebraskans dedicated to elevating environmental education efforts across our great state!
