Description
AP Environmental Science is an interdisciplinary, applied science course taught at a level equivalent to a college-level environmental science course. It involves biology, chemistry, physics, geology, ecology, economics, political science, and mathematics. The course has both theoretical and practical components, as well as a laboratory component. At a minimum, twenty-five percent of instructional time is devoted to hands-on laboratory work with an emphasis on inquiry-based investigations. Investigations require students to ask questions, make observations and predictions, design experiments, analyze data, and construct arguments in a collaborative setting, where they direct and monitor their progress.

Build a Sustainable City Farm in Google Classroom

Build a Sustainable City Farm

You need to run the farm sustainably for 5 years. That means you take good care of the farm, the community, and the community's resources. Each year, you'll have a starting budget of $1000 to achieve these goals:
· Provide food for 200 households. Each household gets one “share” (a box) of our fresh food each week.
· Keep the soil healthy.
· Conserve as much water as possible.
You'll get up to 20 sustainability points each year based on how well you meet these goals.

**Before you start the next year, you need to record your results for each year on the table on the next page!**
