Your school is looking for ways to better contribute to the local watershed. Which 2 choices could be options that would help with this effort?
1) Implementing a rainwater harvesting system: Installing rain barrels or cisterns around the school's campus can collect and store rainwater that can be used for watering plants and gardens. This reduces the demand for treated water from the local watershed, conserving water resources and reducing the strain on the watershed.
2) Creating a school garden: Establishing a garden on school grounds provides an opportunity to teach students about sustainable agriculture and water conservation. By using techniques such as drip irrigation and mulching, the garden can minimize water usage and runoff. Additionally, the garden can serve as a habitat for beneficial insects and pollinators, enhancing the local ecosystem and contributing positively to the watershed.
