Whether you are a classroom teacher, informal educator, interpretive guide, university professor, or scientist, conservation is important to what the NMEA community stands for.
The Conservation Committee provides information to the NMEA membership and its audiences to support informed decision-making. Through NMEA’s website, News, Current Journal, and other publications, we share tools to support individual and collective action for ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes health. We recognize there are many different approaches to conservation, and strive to provide information that is accurate, relevant, and accessible for all audiences.
To advance our understanding and protection of freshwater and marine ecosystems, we must put conservation at the forefront. Consider joining the Conservation Committee to help make a difference and share your passion, and that of the NMEA community, inside your classroom, outside the walls of your cubical, and as far as you can dream.
