SALISBURY, MD- The Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art, Salisbury University helps give students a platform to showcase their environmental work. It’s all part of the Youth Environmental Action Summit. The third annual event was recently held virtually – and this week on Live Green I caught up with two people involved to learn more.
Greener fields and cleaner water, long-term environmental goals that can all start in the minds of students right here on the Lower Shore. The Youth Environmental Action Summit pushes students in grades 3 through 12 to research environmental issues in their communities all year long. They can then present those ideas at the one day summit. For Aurelio Giannitti, one of the event’s co-directors, the most important part is that the students are working together.
