Environmental Education at EOS
EOS Eco-Energy is working to educate our community on climate change, sustainability, and environmental issues. We attend outdoor education days at local schools, visit classes during Climate Change Week, and work with local summer camps to put on active, involved, and immersive educational programs. EOS works with students of all ages to increase climate change knowledge, educate about extreme weather events and emergency preparedness and teach about climate change adaption on a local and global level.
