I sure hope you do better than the last contestant. They really need to pay me more to do this job.
Awesome! This one's far away from the river, so we can choose whatever we want here!
Whoa, whoa, whoa … not so fast! Everything we do on the land impacts the water—even if you're not right next to the river.
Even water that starts far away from the river will eventually end up there. The parcels in between can either help filter the water, or not.
Whoa, cool. So every parcel counts!
Exactly. Go make a great choice!
With this parcel located right next to the river, this could be our last line of defense.
If we use our heads, this parcel can help keep sediment and nutrients out of the water. And maybe help with some of our other goals too. Wait, what are they again?
I can help! They are: Keep sediment (soil) and nutrients out of the water, provide habitat for wildlife, and make money!
Oh yeah. I've got it now. Ok, let's put our heads together and make a great choice!
Remember, your overall score combines your performance on: Sediment (keeping it out of the river), Nutrients (keeping them out of the river), Biodiversity (habitat), and Profit (making money).
Healthy land and clean water depend on you and the choices you made.
Uhhhh, what if we want to make some changes after seeing the results?
Good question! Click a parcel marker at any time to change your selection and your new score will calculate automatically.
