WHY YOU SHOULD CARE You’ve probably heard about the challenges our planet is facing. Mega-hot summers, wild climate changes, plastic pollution, rising food prices… yikes! It’s a lot for one person to handle. THE GOOD NEWS You’re not alone. Connect with Nature is a community of youth changemakers and environmental leaders across the country. Together, we are learning more about the issues our planet is facing and helping in overcoming the challenges. Connect with Nature was created by two of the UAE’s most notable environment conservation organizations: the UAE’s first environmental charity Emirates Nature-WWF (part of the global WWF network) and the Environment Agency-Abu Dhabi (EAD). This means that all the experiences, events and activities organized by Connect with Nature are designed to fit in with the larger, national effort to save our environment. Basically, every action is designed to contribute to a more sustainable tomorrow.
