2022 Kansas & Missouri Environmental Educators Conference

Health For All: Connecting Health and Environmental Education

Health is the chain that links us all together. As the effects of climate change become more apparent in our everyday lives all across the globe, the importance of environmental health is placed into stark relief: The health of our environment has a direct impact on the health of people and our communities.
