Whiting High School, Laramie, WY

The Whiting High School Bio Club has started a great investigation into pollution. In the winter, the city piles snow that has been removed from the streets along the banks of a creek. The students have been taking samples from these snow piles, and are starting to calculate the amount of particulates in these samples. They will then monitor the health of the creek when all of this snow starts to melt, to determine the effects from the runoff created by these snow piles. Interesting, to be sure! Pictures soon to follow....

This is a fantastic project for your BioClub members. I do hope that you will share the results of the study.
