Science 8: Local Aquatic System Health (Indigenous Knowledge Lesson Plan)
Aquatic ecosystems are impacted by human induced threats such as climate change, industrial development (oil and gas, mining), and hydroelectric dams. Indigenous knowledge and observations of land users are important sources of information in understanding these threats to water. Western science is...
