Did you know there is plastic in our salt? In this webinar, we walk you through an engaging lab activity that you can do with your students to investigate how much microplastic is present in three different types of salt! Meet one of our teacher experts and learn how they brought this lesson to life.

We all live in a watershed, no matter how far we are from a body of water! Join us and play an interactive game to discover sources of plastic pollution in a watershed. Our teacher expert walks you through a ready-to-go activity where students investigate how plastic enters their local waterways.

This video is only available in French.
