Description:
Every day humans produce tons of chemicals that can drain into our rivers, lakes, and oceans. In the Pacific Northwest, these waters are important habitat for fish like salmon. You wouldn't like to swim at a polluted beach and our science tells us that the fish don't like it either! Learn about how common pollutants like oil, copper, pesticides, and stormwater harm fish and what you can do to help clean our water. The webinar will last about 45-60 minutes with moderated questions and answers throughout. This webinar will be recorded and posted afterward. Aimed at grades 6-8, but all ages will enjoy. (Recorded on July 8, 2020)
