Earth Day Leadership Projects

Earth Day is next Tuesday.  You will be responsible for coming up with a leadership project that you will create.  This can take many forms; art projects, education projects, public policy, school policy, etc.  

• Think of all the things you have learned in Environmental Science so far.  Soil Science, Water Quality Issues, Chemical Pollution, Consumption, Earth's Natural Resources, Energy Sources, Human Population, etc.....
• Pick an environmental issue that you would like to make people aware of.  Research it, and then come up with a way to educate and possibly make a difference in the way we do things.  
• At the same time, you will need to research the history of Earth Day.  When was the first Earth day?  Who came up with this idea and why?  
• Follow the rubric for the leadership project.
