Stories from the Streams introduces us to a team of scientists who are working tirelessly to maintain the health of the Delaware River Watershed. These fresh water advocates are using state-of-the-art science and innovative techniques to keep our waterways safe. Bugs that can lead us to healthy streams, trees that filter out pollutants and crops that keep pesticides from flowing into nearby creeks – these are just a few of the amazing things we’ll discover on Stories from the Streams.
