On April 19 the Environmental Avengers suited up and got ready to share our project with others. We set up a board in Gaige that displayed our community service project, our research topic, and how our community service project was connected to our research topic. Below is a picture of our board that we presented. We even gave out small bags of bird seed as souvenirs! Using the board we explained to fellow students and faculty that for our research we researched Nature Deficit Disorder, which is the lack of kids and adults getting outside and exploring nature. This is made worse by the fact that there is little to no environmental education in schools. Our pine cone bird feeder projects were intended to get kids outside into nature and have them explore and learn more about the world around them. We wanted to help them become more actively engaged with nature. Through this small project we are hoping to inspire them to spend more time outside in the environment and less time inside on technology.
Speaking of limiting the amount of time spent inside on technology, its time for us to get outside into nature.
Until next time,
Environmental Avengers
