SUMMARY:President's Environmental Youth Award
DESCRIPTION:The President’s Environmental Youth Award (PEYA) recognizes outstanding environmental projects by K-12 youth. The PEYA program promotes awareness of our nation’s natural resources and encourages positive community involvement. Since 1971\, the President of the United States has joined with EPA to recognize young people for protecting our nation’s air\, water\, land\, and ecology. It is one of the most important ways EPA and the Administration demonstrate commitment to environmental stewardship efforts created and conducted by our nation’s youth. \nEach year the PEYA program honors a wide variety of projects developed by young individuals\, school classes (kindergarten through high school)\, summer camps\, public interest groups\, and youth organizations to promote environmental awareness. Thousands of young people from all 50 states and the U.S. territories have submitted projects to EPA for consideration. Winning projects in the past have covered a wide range of subject areas\, including: \n \n\nrestoring native habitats\nrecycling in schools and communities\nconstruction of nature preserves\ntree planting\ninstalling renewable energy projects\ncreating videos\, skits and newsletters that focused on environmental issues\nparticipating in many other creative sustainability efforts\n\nEvaluation results consistently demonstrate that participation in the PEYA program is frequently a life-changing experience for many of the young people and their project sponsors.
