| Estuaries: Finding the Balance |
| National Geographic |
| Learn about the effects of growth on our natural resources |
| "One of the growing debates of the 21st century is how to help the earth sustain the economic growth, expansion, and pressure we are exerting on its natural resources. This lesson examines the conflict between development and the environment, and the attempts for a sound compromise. Using estuaries as a case study, students will be encouraged to consider the interaction between environmental and economic demands, and to seek a balance that will protect both the estuarine habitat and economic growth." |
