I just visited the websites you mentioned, and I feel encouraged. The Discover the Forest website is kid-friendly, and people can just type in their zip code to find nearby forests and parks to enjoy. Thanks! Thanks, Elizabeth.

It was sponsored by the U.S. Forest Service and the Ad Council. They were sending people to this website: http://www.discovertheforest.org/. Children NEED this! How fortunate you and I both have been to live in--or near--a forest! And here's the link to the press release about their campaign: http://www.childrenandnature.org/news/detail/targeting_tweens_the_u.s._forest_service_and_ad_council_launch_national_cam/.
