Saving Our Soil
The Saving Our Soil video and accompanying teacher's guide is targeted at upper elementary and middle school grades. This fast-paced, fun, colorful video is shot in three parts. It covers soil formation, erosion and what people can do to protect and conserve soil.

For more information, contact the Soil and Water Conservation Program at 800-361-4827 or your county soil and water conservation district.

Enforcement Videos
The department uses surveillance cameras at dumpsites across Missouri to combat illegal dumping. The goal is to educate people and provide alternative options, such as obtaining commercial trash service or using a permitted landfill, transfer station, or recycling facility for environmentally sound disposal.

The evidence contained on the tapes resulted in 14 guilty pleas of 23 counts of littering. Some of those caught on tape were frequent visitors to the roadside dumpsite that has plagued Saline County for many years. (Note: two clips below of the gray dodge truck dumped twice within one hour.)

The videos are up to 60 second clips, which allow for a quicker download.
