Summary
Examines a variety of trends related to the Earth's systems. Equips youth with cutting edge knowledge on environmental challenges and explores whether internationally agreed environmental goals are being achieved. The report also features the efforts of young people who are challenging the status quo in their homes and their communities in order to protect the Earth's atmosphere, land, water and biological diversity. It includes a call to action and invites youth to "dive in, get informed, be inspired, and use GEO-5 for Youth" to educate their friends, family, and others in their surroundings.
