There is a sense of urgency for change regarding environmental issues in the United States and globally. However, tomorrow's scientists and engineers (today's youth) need education in science and engineering for change to occur.
Unfortunately, American youth still need enhanced education in critical need areas such as environmental science. DW Green Institute Inc., Green School, and DW Communications & Media Youth International Energy & Environment Program "DW" founded to remedy this situation.
Specifically, the mission of the DW Green Institute Inc. is to increase awareness and understanding of energy and the environment in our nation's youth through the use of innovative education and communication strategies. We are currently working with schools and communities to expose young people to careers in one of these three fields: engineering, science, and media.
The program's cornerstone is a specially tailored curriculum, field presentations, and hands-on experience. There are also other activities, workshops, field trips, and job shadowing opportunities, which all allow our students to receive personal exposure to their field of interest.
Our program brings young people to the world of sound environmental practices, alternative energy resources, and various areas within engineering, science, and the arena of media production.
Our aim at DW Green Institute Inc. is to expose each student to the sciences, enhance their environmental awareness, teach them to become proactive regarding ecological issues and enlighten them on career alternatives and higher education options. Our core value mirrors those of all education – to better prepare students for their futures in the workplace.
DW Green Institute Inc., Green School, and DW Communications & Media focus area of the environment, we feel that students need to learn about:
1. The environmental challenges that currently face our planet.
2. The impact of current technology facing those challenges.
3. The need for improved technology using research and development to meet those challenges.

Sparking an Interest in Science Education
~
Our approaches increase student participation by exposing the student to real-world environmental problems and possible solutions by talking to ecological experts and witnessing firsthand the issues facing our global community. Students become more motivated and encouraged at the prospect of being apart of the decision-making process and making a difference, allowing for increased self-esteem, enhanced decision-making skills, and self-development.
DW Green Institute Inc. aims to serve as a role model and reinforcement for positive living outcomes. However, we are aware that not all students learn at the same pace, level, or manner so our program enhances the current school curriculum by taking students out of the classroom providing invaluable hands-on, and field experiences, which may not be available in a traditional classroom setting.
However, limited funding creates challenges for supplemental programs such as ours. Funding for teacher development and support, materials, and transportation is needed. Thus, support from foundations, companies, parents, community stakeholders, and others is critical to our program's success and, ultimately, the success of our students, and hopefully, the future success of our global environment.
