Green Generation: Division B and C Regional and State Competition

The Event- 3 Parts Knowledge of ecology: terrestrial emphasis Problems resulting from human impacts Solutions to human impacts

The Event Application/process skills 50 minutes Team up to 2 Individual tests or stations

Division B versus Division C Regionals versus State Level of difficulty More application versus general knowledge Division C only- legislation and economic opportunity

The Event Bring Writing implements Non-programmable non-graphing calculator- 2 total allowed One sheet of notes per team

National Website Resources Website links Sample exercises Training handout Event supervisor tips CD available from Nationals

Preparation General knowledge Selected terrestrial biomes Application of general knowledge to selected biomes Process skills Use classroom activities, videos, field trips, and hands on projects

Part 1- General Knowledge Prepare for this section as you would for the ecology event Relevant ecology materials Application of topics to selected biomes 2016: Terrestrial

Part 2- Problems Division B and C 2016 Terrestrial environmental issues Desertification Deforestation Soil pollution Waste disposal Mining

Part 2- Problems Division B and C 2016 Population Growth Issues Habitat destruction Farming practices Fertilizers Pesticides

Part 3- Solutions Sustainability Strategies- focus on terrestrial biomes 2016 Remediation Strategies Energy Sources Waste Management Legislation and Economic Opportunity (Division C only)

Part 3- Sustainability Strategies Conservation and Preservation Minimize waste production Minimize water consumption Prevention versus Cleanup Recycling and reuse Sustainable living, business and development Maintaining biodiversity

Part 3- Environmental Remediation Site assessment and mapping Excavation and dredging Pump and treat Solidification and stabilization Oxidation Soil vapor extraction Bioremediation

Part 3- Energy Sources Nonrenewable Renewable Alternate Waste management

Part 3- Legislation and Economic Opportunity (Division C) See list on handout Key laws: Clean air act Clean water act Endangered species act Freedom of information act Occupational safety and health act Safe drinking water act Superfund amendments and reauthorization act

Part 3- Legislation and Economic Opportunity (Division C) Role of EPA Endangered red list of species Role of CITIES Kyoto protocol NAFTA
