Provide some general info about the stream; the personal value I have foe the site, since I lived adjacent to it and feequently explored it. I can feature some interesting macroinvertebrates or fish caught in the stream as I relay this info.
Next, I need to reveal that its actually not as healthy as it could be, starting by featuring some of the garbage and invasive species there as a precursor to the larger issues.
Next, I'll talk about some of the major anthropogenic factors that are influencing the streams health. This includes a polluted and poorly managed pond that feeds into the stream, along with several apartment complexes and a few adjacent busy roads and sidewalks that allow for pollutant runoff. As such, I'll feature some footage of these problematic aspects.
Next, I'll present a opposing questiom: why do these small streams matter, and why shoild we care if theyre polluted? In response, I will detail their importance for the overall health of the Chesapeake Bay.
To present a resolution to the aformentioned issues, I'll discuss some specific management efforts implemented in/ around small streams. I can probably use some stock footage of invasive species being removed or stream buffers/ improved drainage systems being constructed.
Finally, I'll loop things back around to the the simplicity and natural beauty of these small streams, and reiterating their importance for the collective Chesapeake Bay watershed.
