BRAZIL AND CALIFORNIA

Updated, Nov. 28, 1998

Both the Brazilian and Californian students will conduct hands on scientific research to determine the types and amount of pollution in our watersheds. To do this students will visit local rivers, creeks, lakes and bays to conduct water experiments. They will, also, conduct laboratory experiments at their respective schools. Students will study and interpret maps, photos, videos and works of art that depict water pollution in their local regions.
