how many minutes do you use washing the dishes per day?
how many times do you flush the toilet today?
how do you feel after brushing your teeth after leaving the water running?
Then David made a survey with a couple of questions from each group then we went to survey people in the community. We made a poster with the information that we gathered. we also tested the hardness of water from different places in new york city. Towards the ending of the month we began to brain storm ideas for a slogan , for our campaign.We also made different posters for our t-shirts and combined our idea's together and drew this ..
What i learned this month was that we (humans) impact our environment alot with things as little as leaving your computer or tv on. Many people on the lower east side dont own tv's and most of them also open the faucet over ten times per day. I've also learned that Feces goes into the water and it affects the marine life it contaminates the water , the animals drink or eat the infected feces then fishermen capture the fishes for us humans to eat and it causes disease and it affects us right back. For our poster i began to do research and i found out that out of all the water we have on earth only 3% of water is drinkable but 2% is frozen glaciers, so we only have 1% to drink althought 75% of water covers earth surface. We also tested water from brooklyn water fuacet, schools fish tank and school water fountain and we learned the schools water fountain is the cleanest and the schools fish tank had feces in it.
