Environmental Science 12

Environmental Science 12 students enjoyed a trip to the Somenos Marsh north of Duncan earlier today to learn about conservation of these valuable habitats. They took a stroll on the birdwatchers’ boardwalk, viewed the marshlands, and learned about the ecological “services” these wetlands provide from flood control and carbon storage to waste water treatment filtering out toxins which would otherwise enter the watershed and ocean. The beautiful sunny December weather was a definite bonus!
