This month in science #10

This Month in science we looked at many things having to do with our Human Impact project. The first week we went around the Lower East side around our school asking random people how much they either recycle and etc. Once we did that we regrouped and compare notes. This was very successful for our data. After that we had guests come from the Human Impact Institute they allowed us to come up with a design to print on a T-shirt. Just recently we drew out our design for the shirts. Before we looked at the water from Brooklyn, the school water, and the fish tank water. We found that the Brooklyn water is clean of any bacteria. At first we made a wrong assumption and thought the school water was contaminated, but found it clean of any bacteria. But the fish tank was filled with algae and fish feces in which they eat when it turns into food.

What I learned this month in science is how to conserve water and the impact it has on the world and us. I also learned how different people have an impact on the environment. I also learned that I use an appropriate amount of water. By taking 2 15 minute showers everyday. I know this from taking the survey myself. I also learned that most people on the lower east side recycles. We also took at look at the fish tank and discovered its contaminated because of algae and fish feces.
