Mission Objective:

Some household products that we use every day contain toxic ingredients that can be harmful to the environment. When these products get washed down the drain, the toxins in them can cause damage to aquatic ecosystems and the animals that live there. The goal of the Toxic Takedown Mission is to educate kids about these toxins and teach them how they can help prevent these substances from reaching their local waterways.

To complete this Mission, kids will…

• Read through the Mission Brief to learn about toxins and the ways they can harm the environment.
• Channel their inner scientist to make eco-friendly products.
• Try to choose products that are environmentally friendly the next time they go to the store.
