What will our environment be like in the next millennium?
What challenges will we face?
How do we want the world to be a better place to grow up?
And what can we do make this happen now?
We'll discuss these and a lot of other important questions
during this topic.
You'll also get the chance to show your inventive skills by
developing gadgets which can solve one or more of the
environmental problems we face in the new millennium...

"My Fellows"
Brendan Desilets,
Moderator
David McArdle, Topic Designer
All Kidlink kids answer the question, "How do I want the world to be
better when I grow up?" In "My Fellows,"
kids will ask, "Which people in my country
have helped to the world better?"
Eventually, kids will create virtual books about men
and women of their countries, famous and otherwise, who have made the world a
better place.
