1. We recovered 31.45 % of our water. 2. During the filtering process. 3.clothes,cars, ourselves, dishes ect. 4. No, because no matter how many times you filter it even if it is clean you will lose some amount of water because you filtered it.

=Water Activities A= 1.Which countries are the largest consumers of water? Southern Asia, North America, Eastern Asia, United States 2.How is this map different from other world maps? How is displaying the data this way better than a regular chart?It is colored and it is not labeled like the world maps The color make it easier to read that is why it is easier to display it. 3.Do the countries that use the most water also have the largest populations? Do those that use the least have the least populations? Give two examples for each. Yes because they think more about it. Yes because there are more people.

=Water Sources.= What do we use water for? -swimming pools -drinking -toilet -washing cars -watering plants. -doing dishes. -showering--baths -brushing teeth. -cleaning the house. -laundry -cooking -transportation -energy--coolant -fires -Industry -flushing toilet -decoration fountain -agriculture -swimming amusement parks -garden -lawn -

Competing activities for different living areas. Large city: Drinking/showering Use the showering water to clean the house Small city: Cooking-cleaning/washing cars-buildings Wash the car and building with the same water. Suburbs:daily house work/showering Use the shower water to do the house work Rural Areas:Drinking/house work Use the house work water to wash the car and or use the left over shower water to wash all of this.

What are some of the problems of competing activities? Even though were conserving water by reusing it, there are still other things that we can not reuse the water for and in that case we can not always restore water. Because there are still things that people really need the water for that their still not.

=Water Activity B.= 1. How much water is found in each of these? Fresh water is 10,530,000 km3, Salt water is 23,400,000km3, Locked 102,020,000km3 2. What percent of the total water on Earth is fresh water? 3% 3. What percent of the FRESH WATER is found frozen in ice? 90% 4. What sources of fresh water are found on the surface of the Earth? Mississippi river and the Colorado river 5. Which sources can humans most easily obtain their water? Mississippi river, Ohio river. 6. Water we can actually use, Why is this a problem for the human population (and all the other organisms in the world?) Of all the water only .3% is accessible to people to use along with other organism.

=Water Activity C.= 1. The water comes from the sky and then it goes into the ground and supplies everything then it is taken back up into the sky by evaporation. 2. Precipitation Ground water flow River runoff 3 Yes it is possible, because the more people there are the more water is being used and droughts and every are possible. 4 Eastern Europe, Western Europe

=Water Activity D= Watershed-- ridge of crest line dividing drainage areas. Stream order-- hydrology algorithm used to define stream size based on a hierarchy of tributaries. Drainage basin-- the area drained by a river and all its tributaries.

=**Google Earth and our Watershed**= 1. As we go backwards towards the smaller rivers the elevation continues to rise because the smaller rivers run into the bigger river. In some places the population around the rivers there are more people and in some other areas there is less population. Around different areas there are more vegetation and around some of the bigger rivers there is less vegetation.

2. In 1992 there was way less vegetation then there was in 2001. In 2001 there were more urban areas around most of the rivers.

3. With most rivers they run into more than one state so by saying that they use state boundaries to determine who owns water then they would have to see who has most of the river on there side of the state.

=Normal Climate=





1.Do the two five-year graphs provide enough information for you to discover the "normal" temperature and precipitation levels for your region each December? Describe your reasoning. Yes, for each dot on the graph shows the months and the are the same thoroughout every December. 2.What other information could you use to characterize the climate? oxygen, temp, percipitation 3.Choose another 5 year period from any other set of years. How do the temperature and rainfall vary between this time period versus the first one that you looked at? Well depending on the month the rain fall is going to be different but they are around the same amount.

=Air Quality Activity 4=

1. Asbestos · Caused by deteriorating, damaged, or disturbed insulation, fireproofing.

· Long term risk of chest and abdominal cancers and lung disease, smokers have higher risk of lung cancer.

· If the material is not likely to be disturbed then leave it alone. Don’t sand or cut anything with asbestos in it.

2. Biological Pollutants · Caused by mold, dust mites, pet dander.

· Most trigger allergies, including hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and chicken pox.

· Install exhaust fans; ventilate the attic or crawl spaces.

3. Carbon Monoxide · Caused by kerosene and gas space heater, leaking chimneys and furnaces.

· Low amounts cause fatigue in healthy people and chest pain in people with heart disease, higher amounts can be fatal.

· Keep gas appliances properly set, use proper fuel in kerosene heaters, opens flues when fireplace is in use.

4. Formaldehyde/pressed wood products · Caused by pressed wood products like, plywood wall paneling, fiberboard, and particleboard.

· Causes watery eyes, burning sensations, nausea, and difficulty breather in elevated levels.

· Use “exterior-grade” pressed wood, use air conditioning and dehumidifiers, increase ventilation.

5. Lead A. Comes from lead based paint, some contaminated soil or water B. It can cause convulsions, coma, and death also can cause nervous system, kidney, and blood cell problem, and mental and physical development C. Keep areas clean, don’t remove lead paint yourself, eat a balanced diet that is rich in calcium and iron

6. Nitrogen dioxide A. Comes from kerosene heaters, gas stoves that are un-vented, and tobacco smoke B. Causes eye nose and throat irritation, impairs lung function, and increase respiratory infections C. Gas appliances properly adjusted, purchasing vented space heater, proper fuel in kerosene space heaters, install and use exhaust fan

7. Pesticides A. Used to kill household pests and on lawns and gardens B. Irritation to eye, nose, and throat, damage to central nervous system and kidney, increased risk of cancer C. Mix or dilute outdoors, apply only in recommended quantities, increase ventilation when using indoors

8. Respirable particles A. Fireplaces, wood stoves, and kerosene heaters B. Eye, nose, and throat irritation, also respiratory infections, and bronchitis C. Vent all furnaces, choose properly sized woodstoves, and change filters

9. Radon A. outdoor air and in the indoor air of buildings of all kinds B. causes lung cancer in non-smokers C. test the air more often

10. Second hand smoke A. Comes form smoking tobacco B. Asthma attacks, lower respiratory tract, respiratory tract infections C. Stay away from smokers or get them to smoke outside

11.Stoves,Heaters,Fire places and Chimneys A. Made by factors. B. Carbon Monoxide,Nitrogen dioxide which can cause headaches, dizziness, weakness,lung deisease, and asthma. C. Keep places vented and install and use exhaust vans.

12. volatile organic compounds A. Emitted as gases from certain solids or liquids like paint, varnishes, and wax. B. Eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches, loss of coordination, nausea and damage to liver, kidneys, and central nervous system. C. Increase the ventilation when using such products.

=Air Quality Activity 5=

1. Causes of indoor air pollution are, mold, bacteria, carbon monoxide, or radon. 2. Particulate pollution comes from coal burning power plants.
