Welcome to KidzAustin.com's section titled 4theirFuturez. In honor of Earth day and in response to the growing news and concerns regarding global warming, we offer links to information on how we can help improve our children's future -- specifically in regards to their environment and our beautiful planet.

After watching the Discovery Channel's Planet Earth series, our son actually suggested we create this page to educate/inform others out there on how we can help by being a little more green in our everyday practices. So, this page is dedicated to just that -- providing guidance and tips through various environmental resources. As always, we encourage your feedback and appreciate any addtiional information we can provide to help in this regard.

We hope this information will help kids and families in Austin area learn more about recycling and educate them on other ways they can help the environment and "go green"
