Environmental Education for Los Angeles County Teens.

Generation Earth is an environmental education program from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works. Our goal is to educate and empower teens in Los Angeles County to be an active part of the solution to environmental concerns in their community. We offer workshops, mentorship, and do-it-yourself environmental projects that help youth make a positive difference at school, at home, and out in the world. Our programs are built to support the needs of teachers, students, schools and community youth groups.
