To celebrate Earth Week, Bruce Power has partnered with the Bruce County Museum and Cultural Centre to offer free webinars for students.
Local experts will share their knowledge with students on local biodiversity and invasive species. A release from Bruce Power states the program will "connect to the Grade 6 Biodiversity strand of the Ontario curriculum and will highlight terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity and challenges posed by invasive species. The videos and challenge activities will be available on the museum’s education centre starting April 19."
