Protect and Conserve

Environmental awareness is to understand the fragility of our environment and the importance of its protection. Promoting environmental awareness is an easy way to become an environmental steward and participate in creating a brighter future for our children.

 

It means being aware of the natural environment and making choices that benefit the earth, rather than hurt it. Some of the ways to practice environmental awareness include: using safe and non-toxic building supplies, conserving energy and water, recycling, activism, and others.

We must pursue this awareness for the sake of our brighter and better tomorrow. Being aware in the environment means everything to mother earth. We Must Protect and Conserve.
