Water conservation 

I read an article about the benefit of water conservation.  The article basically breaks down the reason on why we need to care about water conservation, how it’s not just the scientist problem we can help create a solution. If you think about it water is the reason we are here on this planet. It helps to grow plants and the food we eat. It helps water and feed the animals that we eat. Due to the growth in population water is becoming more limited. This could end up causing a food reduction because like I said we use water to grow the food we eat. Another reason you should care to help with water conservation is it is used for recreational use too. Not only pools but it also keeps our lawns nice and green. This is just some of the reasons you should care about water conservation along with many more

    Teagan,
    Water is literally 70% of the human body. It is about 3/4 of the world. Water is used everywhere in everything and is essential to life. Without water there is no life. Water conservation is a great thing to think about! It was something mentioned in the past but now a days you dont hear much about it. Just like how fossil fuels will become scarce as well. This was a great read and a great topic. Thanks!!

    Teagan, Water conservation is definitely an overlooked problem that we face in the world. Clean water is a lot more scarce in other countries but we also tend to forget how scarce it is in some parts of America. I encourage you to look up the Flint, Michigan water crisis. We as people tend to ignore tings until we are directly affected by it and it's definitely time that we start acting now before it's too late. Like Hannah said in the comment above, 3/4 of our world is water, and over three billion people depend on marine life but EVERYBODY, including animals depends on clean water.

Land Loss

 Hannah Bailey  There have been posts about sea levels rising however its not just affecting the sea. The water rising is also affecting the land. There is always the conspiracy that Florida will be fully submerged. It is stated on “the travel” page that Florida could be submerged as soon as 2050. This means that section of land will become apart of the sea life ecosystem. All of the oil preserves, the towns, even maybe cars would be submerged and begin to add more pollution to the ocean. This would require the citizens on Florida to have to reside elsewhere. Around 20 square mile of land has been consumed by sea levels rising. That is equivalent to 9,680 football fields of land gone. The image shown is a demonstration of what Florida will begin to look like if we dont take action fast. It is imperative that we save Florida for the citizens, land history, and for the oceans sake.  https://www.thetravel.com/florida-underwater-soon-stats/ https://coast.noaa.gov/digitalcoast...

Wildlife Conservation

  Wildlife conservation is the way of practicing the protection of the animal species and the  habitats they survive in. The Endangered Species Act,  is the establishment and protection of public lands animals live in, and the responsibility of public practices that conserve wild animal populations.  With The earth continuing to grow at a fast rate, it is also meaning that more and more humans are taking up natural resources. This is endangering the existence of animals and their habitats. Programs like the  World Wildlife Fund and  the Wildlife Conservation Society are working every day to slow down the extinction of animals and also protect the earth's biodiversity at the same time.  https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/wildlife-conservation/

Land Reclamation

 Hannah Bailey Land Reclamation  Land is becoming more scarce as humans produce more technology and as the world wide population continues to increase. Land reclamation is "the process of creating new land from the sea." One way of doing this is by placing certain amount of big rocks and cement into a certain location in the water. To fill in between the rocks they place soil and sand until the new manmade land is at its desired height. This benefits the human race by creating land however, how does this impact our waters? How about the sea creatures? Is this damaging the environment? This does impact all of those things. In areas that use have high amount of crab and fish are seeing less and less. The underwater habitats are being destroyed. There was a reclamation project in China that was restricted for the harm against marine life. The picture shown is the progress the China project had before it was prohibited.  https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetar...
