Environmental Education in Tennessee
     



We are seeking innovative and interactive sessions for the Fall 2009 Tennessee Environmental Education Association conference being held on Sept 25-27 at Scarritt-Bennett in Nashville. This year's theme is Sustainability Sounds Good to Tennessee!
This 14-minute video was produced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency discusses the loss of wetlands and the effect that the loss of natural areas closest to us has on our connection to the natural world. Urban and suburban wetlands are valuable resources to be restored, protected and enjoyed and can play a key role in improving the health of our children and our communities.
Watersheds are a logical way to think about the connection between the land and the quality of water we enjoy. Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation has partnered with the Tennessee Department of Transportation to place unique Watershed Signs along interstate and state highway routes.
This website is sponsored by the Tennessee Environmental Education Association (TEEA) and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) in partnership with the Tennessee Department of Education and Project CENTS. Thanks to a Southeastern EE Capacity Building Grant from the U.S. EPA, this site enables Tennessee teachers, parents and students to access information about statewide Environmental Education opportunities.
