Homeschool Program: INVADERS! Invasive Species

INVADERS! Invasive Species

10:00am – 12:00pm

Our ecosystems are under attack! When non-native plants and animals are introduced to new places, they have the potential to spread unchecked and inflict enormous damage. Learn about some of the invasive species affecting Connecticut today and how we can turn the tide in the fight for our ecosystems.

Curriculum Connections: From a biological perspective, we’ll unpack the vast generational impact humans have on a variety of ecosystems. We will look at 20th-century conservation actions and the governmental policies that have been put in place since the 1970 and how they have impacted the environment today.
