Environmental Learning Activities
Educate yourself or students through hands-on activities related to environmental health and the effects of various chemicals on organisms in real time. Pre-assembled kit options allow you to cut prelab prep time down significantly. Other models are specialized to show particular simulated environmental systems, such as stormwater floodplains and the effects of retention ponds and wetlands in flood management, or human waste composting as part of a long-term educational exercise.
