Environmental Concern Inc. has been all about wetlands since 1972 and we
want to share our knowledge with you!  

Join us for our exciting educator workshops!

 

WOW!: The Wonders of Wetlands provides a resourceful and creative collection
of wetland activities, information, and ideas. WOW! includes: over 50
hands-on multidisciplinary activities in lesson plan format, extensive
background information on wetlands, ideas for student action projects, and a
wetlands resource guide.  WOW! has been called, "the most comprehensive
introduction to wetland issues and definitions" by the North American
Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE), and is a recommended
