short answer
Science is important to the youth because it engages them in learning and exploring.
paragraph
Although this is a time of havoc that nobody wants to remember, it is also a great time for the advancements of science and technology. Science is absolutely everywhere. When we breathe, when we eat, even when we move a muscle. It's all science. Science engages youth in exploring and learning. There are many youth that take coding classes, or maybe something with more inventing. It's about why and how, not about right and wrong. That doesn't mean everyone has to grow up to be a scientist or a doctor or an engineer, they can still do whatever they want because that's their life and that's up to them. Overall, science has quite a great impact in our youth and it is important to youth to experience every day. And when I say experience every day I don't mean some big project, all I mean is something small that at the surface isn't doing anything science related at all.
hope this helps :)
