Today’s children will be soon crafting the future of our planet and society.

  • It is essential that since an early age youth realizes that all the things used in our daily lives and routines come from specific places on our planet. It is important to be aware that resources and energy are limited. It is vital to realise that everything we consume needs to be discovered, produced, transformed and distributed.

    In the process, it is crucial to understand that some places need to be protected and preserved, while others need to be effectively exploited using forefront environmental and social best practices. In sum, the more efficiently our society consumes resources, the more sustainable will be our collective living.

    To help pass this message to the younger generations, Geo Logica prepared a series of specific activities and programs specially made for students in different education systems (schools, associations, etc…).

How can we enthusiastically educate younger generations about Earth’s processes?
