PUBLIC OUTREACH AND NATURAL RESOURCE EDUCATION
One of the most important tools we can use to achieve healthy natural resources is through an outreach and education effort. That effort includes education on natural resource impacts and improvement opportunities as well as information about our improvement programs. The outreach effort includes newsletters and press releases, a conservation resource library, classroom and other demonstrations, workshops, and tours. The Conservation Resource Library has a variety of bulletins and reports from the US Geological Survey, Wyoming Game and Fish Department and others. There are several guidebooks for classroom activities and other tools for educators. There is information on septic systems, weed control, soils, water resources and others. In addition to demonstrations about water quality monitoring, the SCCD has an Enviroscape ® model that shows how pollution types move through a watershed. It helps to explain the watershed concept and provides a good visual example of all of the activities that can impact a water body. Students can use the model to identify ways to improve the quality of water. The SCCD has staff willing to perform a demonstration for your classroom, tour, camp, or other activity.
