About
Nova Scotia student and environmental activist Stella Bowles tells her story about campaigning against sewage pipes draining into the LaHave River. Her science fair project about the river captured the attention of the media, the public and government leaders. Ultimately she succeeded in getting three levels of government to fund a $15.7 million cleanup. She continues to campaign for cleaner water and shows other children how to test for water quality in their own backyards and how to take action if they find polluted water.
