Welcome to the

Houston Geological Society

Earth Science Week, observed annually in the United States, Canada and, increasingly, in other countries, is an opportunity to understand the impact of the earth sciences in our daily lives. The Houston Geological Society is honored to join in the celebration each year. As geologists, we hope to

• Give people, particularly students, special opportunities to learn about the Earth sciences
• Increase awareness that Earth science is all around us
• Encourage stewardship of the Earth
• Share our knowledge and enthusiasm about the Earth
