why dont they teach LNT in schools ?, if you look around , we have a big problem with trash on the sidewalk, side of roads, edges of our soccer fields. your pass to the outdoors should include passing a LNT test.If kids and adults don't clean up where they live , they will not care about where they don't . we can all do our part and get the word out , LNT.
