Teams of five students participate in this hands-on environmental
problem-solving competition. Teams complete
training and testing in five categories – aquatic ecology, soils,
land use, forestry and wildlife – and one environmental issue.
Winning teams advance to the national Envirothon and
compete for recognition, scholarships and prizes. A teacher
workshop and student field trips are available to prepare
teams for the competition.
