Register your spring or fall field trip here.
Report your field trip and upload photos.
Do a local stewardship project (See ideas below.) and add your class to the Alaska Sea Grant Honor Roll.
Participate in a beach or stream clean-up. Figure out the major sources of the litter or marine debris and brainstorm an action plan to reduce the amount of litter or debris that might harm fish or wildlife (Examples: a public awareness campaign, trash containers at key places).
Participate in a stream restoration project such as planting vegetation on stream banks where erosion is a problem.
Paint signs for storm drains to alert people that it drains to a salmon stream.
Start a recycling program if your school doesn't have one.
Find out how plastics are being used and disposed of by your school or community. Start a campaign to reduce the use of plastics through re-use and recycling or finding alternatives (e.g., cloth bags for plastic bags). For plastics that can't be recycled, look for ways to reduce the amount that ends up in local wetlands, ponds, streams, or on beaches.
- Developing and recording radio spots.
- Writing a letter and/or petition to an elected officials requesting a change in policies or regulations that affect the health of the local environment.
Look for ways that people are helping salmon or working to maintain the health of Alaska's wetlands, streams, or the ocean. Write thank you letters and ask how you can help.
