Watershed/Nonpoint
Source is the first in the EnviroScape series
-- also known as EnviroScape I and EnviroScape II.
Water pollution comes from many sources. Nonpoint sources contribute
a great deal to the pollution in our water bodies. The combined affect
of pollution from many small sources can have a real impact on the
quality of our shared water resources.
EnviroScape Watershed/Nonpoint Source
tracks pollution from nonpoint sources, including
Pollution and runoff are visually
apparent when rain falling over the landscape top carries soil
(cocoa), chemicals (colored drink mixes) and oil (cocoa and water
mixture) through a watershed to a body of water. Stormwater runoff
and storm drain function are also addressed.
Best management practices include
felt buffer strips as vegetation, clay to create berms and other methods
to show conservation and water pollution prevention measures at work.
It discusses nonpoint source pollution and the steps everyone can
take to help prevent environmental contamination. It is also good
for discussion about overall watershed concepts.
EnviroScape Watershed/Nonpoint
Source teaches the watershed concept in addition to point and nonpoint
source pollution. Two waterways flow into a larger water body,
which is representative of a lake, river, bay, or ocean. The unit
comes complete with a kit containing everything you need to demonstrate
the movement of water through a watershed and the pollution that runoff
may cause.

"Using the EnviroScape
unit, people can learn how water can become polluted when it travels
over land, streets, yards and through storm drains and how their
personal actions can affect the health of waterways where they
live. The statistics collected over the years show that students
have a better understanding of the stormwater runoff problem through
the use of this model. This helps the RCD show its funders that
the program is educating the students."

At Cargill, the employees are the volunteers who go into the communities.
With EnviroScape, they can show why pollution prevention is important
for everyone. It's our way of giving back and more."

- "EnviroScape is the leading teaching tool
that water educators have for portraying the complexity and importance
of water quality practices. We have used EnviroScape at every one
of our Children's Groundwater Festivals. And, the expansion of the
program and supplemental teaching materials just keep getting better
through time."

Foundation

NEW!
Improved Carrying Case! We've taken the best from the Heavy-Duty Carrying
case and made it better! Now called the DELUXE CARRYING CASE,
the new case is made from a strong nylon material with reinforced
sides, padded protection, wheels, a retractable handle and an additional
side handle. It's much easier to transport, remove and replace the
EnviroScape model, and much lighter to lift. Warm brown in color,
the new improved Deluxe Carrying Case replaces the original case.
TOTE/SHOULDER
BAG: No more zippers -- place your EnviroScape model(s) in
the bag & go! Plus, it's big enough for the foam padded box. The
tote bag replaces our nylon shoulder bag, and is 33.5" x 28"
x 10", made from strong black polyester, with adjustable handles
and inside pockets.
