Pete Lopez, former Region 2 EPA Administrator and current Executive Director of Policy, Advocacy and Science for Scenic Hudson recently visited Mrs. Thompson's and Mrs. Lopez's class at Cairo-Durham Elementary School!
The students viewed photographs and discussed a variety of key environmental issues. The discussions focused on how we can all work together to create and maintain clean, healthy neighborhoods and farms, along with the importance of protecting forests.
Students also learned about alternative energy and pollution. All of the students participated enthusiastically and learned how to be stewards of the environment! Thank you, Mr. Lopez!
