The Ogeechee-Canoochee Riverkeeper staff for Liberty and other area counties recently demonstrated the impacts of nonpoint source pollution with their EnviroScape model and showed a short video by the Environmental Protection Division on nonpoint source pollution.
East Georgia College students enrolled in Dr. Jim Wedincamp’s biology class learned about the impacts of dirt and other nonpoint source pollution to our waterways. The students saw how rain can wash dirt, fertilizers and pesticides into streams.
After learning about the Georgia Rivers Alive Program, the students were given t-shirts, trash bags and gloves to conducted trash cleanups to help raise other people’s awareness of pollution issues on Georgia’s rivers and streams.
