Village Creek is a complex ecosystem in Birmingham, Alabama with many problems confronting it.
The four groups to be represented will be an environmentalist group, industry representatives, local citizens, and environmental regulations agency representatives. They will use problem solving techniques to identify the problem with Village Creek as their group sees it and propose solutions. Each group will share their solution proposals and debate which solution is best. One of the South's earliest industrial cities is Birmingham, Alabama, a place known for its history of iron and steel production. Often forgotten, however, is the history of Birmingham's natural features that were essential to the establishment of this city.
