Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
Over 90,000 miles of rivers and streams are found in Kentucky. These miles of stream touch Kentuckians every day. Streams provide flood control, wildlife habitat, recreation, and most importantly, a source of water that is used in thousands of ways. But, the quality of a stream is only as good as the land that surrounds and drains into it. That is why it is important to practice good stream stewardship. Metcalfe County 4-H presented a program “Making Good Choices for Our Future” participants. As a result of this program, 98% of the participants demonstrated an increase in understanding of the concept of stream stewardship and how to sort their recycling products. 97% of the participants showed an increase in knowledge regarding streams and the importance of keeping them clean. In a follow-up survey, 99% of participants took action to protect streams around their home and 87% of participants changed at least one habit and began to recycle.
