Conservation Education

Conservation education is an increasingly important subject for today’s students, allowing them to understand how natural systems function, the political, social, and cultural components of our environment, and the reciprocity that exists between human/nature interactions. The lessons our students learn in the classroom will prepare them to become the future stewards of our environment, sustainably utilizing natural resources and conserving biodiversity while still meeting the needs of the world’s human population.

It is also important for adults to understand the complex processes of our Adirondack ecosystem so that they may be good environmental stewards. Presentations are available for the Hamilton County
community, including students, teachers, and citizens.
