Environmental Science Prerequisites 

 

"Scouts will need the MB booklet.  For the definitions, I have attached a crossword puzzle that makes that less painful: Crossword

The endangered species report 3e1 or 3e2 is also best done as pre-work.  I will suggest scouts do their report on the Limestone Salamander, an interesting local species that seems to represent traits common to threatened and endangered species.  Any T&E species can be selected, but it’s best if everyone does at least some reading about one species that we can discuss as a group.

Are there an invasive species in camp we can do a bit of work on?  We can talk about the ground squirrels, but best if we can go pull some invasive plants out.  Where I live in Sonoma County, French Broom is the invasive species du jour."
