Teaching "Leave No Trace"

[mt_goodrich]

I'd like to prepare myself to teach the "Leave No Trace" principles to my troop and would like to know where to begin gather material and perhaps, getting myself trained to do this.

Check out the Bible. Some of the LNT principles are straight from the Old Testament.

Deuteronomy 23:12-14 (NLT)

12 “You must have a designated area outside the camp where you can go to relieve yourself. 13 Each of you must have a spade as part of your equipment. Whenever you relieve yourself, dig a hole with the spade and cover the excrement. 14 The camp must be holy, for the Lord your God moves around in your camp to protect you and to defeat your enemies. He must not see any shameful thing among you, or he will turn away from you.

And we thought LNT was a new idea. This is something I will use.

The best and easiest place to get started teaching LNT to boy scouts is from the boy scouts.
