I was recently reading the March - April 2025 issue of "Science and Children", a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.

In this issue, I read the section, "Editor's Note," written by Elizabeth Barrett-Zahn She wrote an article entitled, "'Human Impacts.

As Earth Day 2025 approaches, we must ask: What kind of world are we leaving behind? Will we continue to exploit resources without regard for limitations, or will we treat the Earth's resources as gifts to be respected and shared? The choices we make now will shape not only the future of the planet but also the future of the children we teach.
