 HE CURRICULUM:\nProject WET stands for Water Education Today. Water is a
  part of everything we are\, everything we eat\, and everything we use. 
 Yet most people do not even know where their water comes from\, let alon
 e their larger water footprint. Project WET provides educators\, natural
  resource professionals\, and more real-world\, relevant\, and hands-on 
 lessons\, that create an interdisciplinary learning environment focused 
 on the most essential aspect of life--water.\nProject WILD's mission is 
 to provide wildlife-based conservation and environmental education that 
 fosters responsible actions toward wildlife and related natural resource
 s. All curriculum materials are backed by sound educational practices an
 d theory\, and represent the work of many professionals within the field
 s of education and natural resource management from across the country.\
 nProject Learning Tree® (PLT) provides educators with high-quality prof
 essional development\, hands-on activities\, and multi-disciplinary supp
 lemental curriculum that can be easily integrated into lesson plans for 
 all grades and subject areas to help teach youth about trees\, forests\,
  and the environment.
