Learn more about what Earth Team interns do
My experience with Earth team has been amazing. I got to explore nature and how it works, and the problems we face as a society. With my experience I am able to apply these to future adventures.
There was a lot that I learned from this year at Earth Team, especially about myself! I’ve learned about my passion and great interest in the environment and even the fact that I would love to pursue a career in environmental engineering.
I enjoyed learning more about climate change and the effects on us. The activities were fun and I learned a lot from them. Also getting to know other people from our school that I don’t usually talk to was a great experience.
I enjoyed meeting new people and getting closer with them, learning about environmental issues and stewardship, and doing hands-on experiments.
