Carbon Cycle Field Trip

Test soil in different habitats to discover how wetlands and other habitats can act as carbon sinks. Catch wildlife and determine how harvesting fossil fuels would impact them and their habitats.

Carbon Cycle is a part of a two-part program series with 1x in-class program and 1x field trip program. You may choose to book only the in-class or field trip program, but we recommend booking both for deeper engagement.
