Earth Rangers, your AMAZING work in the Big Splash Challenge<\/strong> is making WAVES!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the challenge, you logged over 250,000<\/strong> climate-friendly habits to help protect water! To celebrate, we teamed up with Water Rangers to get water quality testing kits to two awesome programs. Les Scientifines and the M\u00e9tis Nation of Ontario (MNO) Water Monitoring Program are using these kits to teach young people to take care of rivers, lakes, and ponds, keeping them clean and healthy for everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les Scientifines: Helping girls discover the wonders of science<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The water quality testing kits are helping the work of Les Scientifines in Montreal. They inspire girls with fun, hands-on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) activities. With these kits, the girls get to test water, discover tiny bacteria, and learn about water pollution. This fun learning helps them get the skills to solve real problems that\u2019ll help to keep our planet safe!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

MNO Water Monitoring Program: Helping young people protect water<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The MNO Water Monitoring Program is training M\u00e9tis youth across Ontario how to check the water quality in their communities. They\u2019re learning how pollution and climate change are affecting the lakes and rivers in their traditional territories. This hands-on learning helps them become stewards of \u2018no t\u00e8r pi noz o\u2019 (our lands and waters), teaching them why water quality is so important and how to keep it safe!<\/p>\n\n\n
