Please know that NC soil & water conservation districts have bought many EnviroScapes and use them across the state to teach water quality and best management practices!! And many stormwater departments teach with them as well. What a terrific concept you came up with and it's still as popular and needed as ever!

Coastal model helps create awareness and understand changes in the coastal environment

While local issues of river health are dominating the news in New Zealand, the flow-on effect of deteriorating catchments may not be obvious but is key to understanding changes occurring in the coastal environment. The Enviroscape models are helping us creating awareness and understanding of connectivity between ecosystems with schools groups.
