Sustainability Scout Merit Badge Class

Calling all scouts!

Join us on at our Nature Center for our Sustainability Merit Badge Class on Sunday, June 8!

The Sustainability Scout Merit Badge class teaches scouts about environmental sustainability. It encourages them to develop and implement plans that reduce waste, conserve resources, and understand the impact of human activities on the planet. While earning this badge, scouts learn about climate change, species extinction, resource extraction, green chemistry, recycling, and zero-waste manufacturing.
