About Me |

At Earth’s Kids we believe that children are our future. Their creativity, values, and choices will shape our society and create waves of impact that may some day be felt all over the planet — perhaps for centuries to come. It's up to us help them make that impact a positive one. And as research has shown, what kids learn in the first five years of life, and the quality of care they receive in that period, will form the core of who they become, as teenagers and as adults. We believe this makes teachers and caregivers vitally important guardians and shapers of the future. And we at Earth's Kids are committed to connecting them with the information and resources they need to do this job capably and joyfully. We also work with children, directly and through the materials on our website, to teach them to value themselves, the environment, and their connection to all living things. An important part of our focus is to help young people understand the power that they possess to do good, and to connect them with opportunities to get involved with important causes and volunteer their time. Finally, we know that right now world events are setting the stage for the challenges our children will face as adults, and for the quality of life they will enjoy, or endure. So we at Earth’s Kids are committed to working together with educators, scientists, activists, and other community leaders to share information, take action, and positively shape the world that our children will inherit. We hope you will join us. Visit us on the web at: WWW.EARTHSKIDS.COM Please note that Earth's Kids is maintained solely by volunteer effort. All profits from the sales of books and educational materials go directly to offset the expenses involved in maintaing this important resource.

My Interests |

I'd like to meet:We look forward to meeting and working together with educators, scientists, activists, and most of all... KIDS! As we've indicated, we look forward to connecting with people looking to work together for common goals. But promoting get rich quick schemes is not one of these! Please do not attempt to promote yours here with comment posts or emails. All such spammers will be deleted. Global Warming: Facing the Challenge for Earth's ChildrenGlobal warming looms as one of the major crises of our times. But unlike war, disease, and pollution global warming threatens to create a change so sudden and so devastating to our economies, our food base, and even to the availability of habitable land, that it outstrips all threats save the nuclear holocaust we struggled (successfully)to prevent in decades past. We stand now at a critical junction in history, where choices still remain to us, and a significant impact can still be made. It is not too late to change the trajectory we are on, to affirm and protect life. To think and act with compassion, for ourselves and our fellow creatures. The time is now to take action on behalf of our children, on behalf of all of the Earth's children... Visit the Earth's Kids Global Warming special feature page to learn more about this critical environmental problem, and about what we all can do to help.
