PEEC is one of only a handful of educational camps actually housed inside a national park.  Host Lisa Champeau talks with Kelly Daly, Marc Gold and Joy Karnas, PhD, about how they got involved with PEEC and how PEEC programs aim to raise awareness about the natural world and how we can all make the Earth a better place --free of pollution, climate change and waste.
