Geology (Boy Scout Merit Badge) Accent Coffee Mug

Geology (Boy Scout Merit Badge) The "Geology Merit Badge" is one of over 140 merit badges offered by the Boy Scouts of America. This badge aims to introduce Scouts to various aspects of geology, a science concerned with the solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change over time. To earn this badge, Scouts are expected to learn about rock identification, mineral properties, fossils, and plate tectonics, among other topics. They must also demonstrate their knowledge through a series of requirements that include observing and recording geological formations, creating a map of a geological area, and presenting a report on a geological topic. The Geology Merit Badge is an excellent opportunity for young Scouts to develop a foundational understanding of this important field while fostering a sense of curiosity and exploration.
