Less Screen, More Green™ - Environmental Education for This Digital Age - connecting children, youth and families with each other and nature
Less Screen, More Green: The Mindful Tech Plan offers the powers of nature, mindfulness and being truly connected.
We are dedicated to nurturing healthy, nature-loving children and families in this digital age.
We develop and support initiatives developed, and led by, Indigenous youth to bring Traditional Knowledge from their earth-based culture to enhance our Less Screen, More Green program.
These Indigenous youth and their Elders have much to offer to other youth dealing with depression, feelings of isolation and other mental health issues.

• Are you also concerned about so many of our children and youth spending so much time on their tablets, phones and other electronic gadgets? Even before the pandemic?
• Now, with online learning and distant education and mostly virtual communication, do you agree that we need to make skilful efforts to get kids off screens every day to get outdoors, be active and learn to love nature and develop healthy social relationships with each other?
• Do you also feel that while they need to be tech savvy in this digital age, we also want them to be free from digital dependency and social media addiction?
• Did you know that only 20 minutes a day of active, outdoor greentime has proved benefits for children?
It's crucial to get them off wireless devices, and balance indoor screentime with nature-connecting greentime.
And learning simple mindfulness exercises has been proven to extend their quality sleep by at lest one hour a night.
Our medical experts offer these and other science-based strategies with The Mindful Tech Plan™.
