Planet Green: The Eco Experience of a Lifetime 2007

Atlanta Area School Kids Make U.S. History

The Frank Ski Kids Foundation; keeping in line with our mission statement, "Exposing Kids To Their Future", envisioned an idea to take a group of U.S. school kids to the Charles Darwin Research Station and the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador. This contest created set a precedent in the United States - it's the first time in U.S. history that a group of school kids traveled to the Charles Darwin Research Station in the Galapagos Islands for a science excursion.

Hundreds of kids ages 13 to 15 entered a contest titled "Planet Green: The Eco Experience of a Lifetime".

Topic: "If You Were President of the United States, What Would You Do to Help Conserve Energy, Preserve Nature and the Environment for Future Generations?"
