Environmental literacy (EL) programming connects students to their communities and the environment around them. With EL programming, students and educators work to apply earth system science, civics, and interdisciplinary learning to understand and address complex local and global environmental challenges.

Join the U.S. Department of Education and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to explore how Federal, state, and local partners are engaged in environmental literacy programming and to learn about resources that can support environmental literacy programming in your area.
