    Meet the Academy of Natural Sciences’ chemists, engineers and other scientists and find out how they monitor pollution and other environmental hazards affecting the Philadelphia region. Examine their equipment, tanks with live fish, and even the inside of a sediment core dating back 200 years! Find out how clean your local stream is and learn how scientists test crabs for toxic chemicals. The staff will give tips on how to be a better steward of the environment, increase your sustainability practices, and become a “greener” person.
