During my project, I created educational web content to teach people without an environment background about the basics of their local ecosystem. I produced specific content based on the Kingston County area, providing information about certain bird, plant, and animal species as well as on Carpenter Creek, a major part of the watershed there. My aim was to get people more interested in the environment around them.
