=Foul Water=



=Water Sources Activity A= 1. Southern Asia, Eastern Asia, North America 2. It shows how much water is used in each country 3.Yes because it takes more people to use more water. No because they could just be in a wet season.

=Water Sources= Drink, toilet, shower, car wash, food, swim, wash clothes, brush teeth, gardens, Agriculture, Industrial, mining, dishes, landscaping, street cleaning, irrigation, wash hands, power plants, animals, hydroelectric power.

Large City: street cleaning, shower, dishes, animals, wash hands, drink, industrial Small City: shower, dishes, animals, landscaping, wash hands, drink Suburbs: shower, dishes, animals landscaping, washing hands, gardens, drink Rural Area: shower, dishes, animals landscaping, washing hands, gardens, drink, mining

=Water Sources Activity B= 1,386,000,000 cubic kilometers Oceans 95.6% = 1325,016,000 cubic kilometers Ice capes, glaciers 1.74% = 24,116,400 cubic kilometers Groundwater 1.7 = 23,562,000 cubic kilometers Ground ice, permafrost .022% = 3,049,200 cubic kilometers Lakes .013 = 1,801,800 cubic kilometers Atmosphere .001 = 13860 cubic kilometers Soil moisture .001 = 13860 cubic kilometers Swamp waters .0008 = 11088 cubic kilometers River .0002 = 2772 cubic kilometers Biological water .0001 = 1386 cubic kilometers
 * 1

About three percent is freshwater
 * 2

Two percent of freshwater is found in ice
 * 3

River streams lakes are places we can find fresh water are found on the surface of the earth
 * 4

The most easiest place we could get water is from wells, rivers, streams, lakes
 * 5

There is little freshwater to work with. 97.5% of water is saltwater leaving us with 2.5% of freshwater and out of the freshwater is 68.9% is found in glaciers and 30.8% is groundwater, and only .3% of that water is accessible to humans so when its gone there will be freshwater left we just will never be able to get to it.
 * 6

=Water Sources Activity C=
 * 1) 1 The water mainly moves up or down
 * 2) 2 We can the water from lakes and groundwater in the water cycle
 * 3) 3 Yes it is possible to run out of water expect when in some places water is a non-renewable resource
 * 4) 4 China, India, all of Europe. These areas would not have the most water because these areas are over populated and over the past few years these areas keep growing in the number of people.

Individual Question Using the car wash instead of the garden house and using the dishwasher instead of leaving the water run in the sink. =Water Sources Activity D=

watershed - ridge of land, separates two adjacent river systems stream order - Energy and nutrient flow, increases as water moves toward oceans drainage basin - extent of land where water from rain/snow drains/melts downhill into a body of water

=Watershed/River order= 1. 2.In 1992 there is some vegetation and in 2001 there is more urban areas near the rivers 1992 2001 3.It would be better to use the state boundaries because may be the states would argue who owns the water and fights would breakout and maybe one place would end up with more water than any other state then the other states would go after the water of that state.

=Public Service Announcement=

=Normal Climate=

Precipitation of Lower Susquehanna in the past 5 years The temperature of the lower Susquehanna in the past 5 years

Questions

Yes it does by the number of the temp
 * 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.

oxygen temp and pecip
 * 2.** What other information could you use to characterize the climate?

The temperature and rainfall was more in the first period than the last one
 * 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?

=Activity 4= Cody Lauer Pd 3 Activity 4

Work in teams to identify the 12 pollutants listed. In your group, you need to cover all 12 pollutants. Take notes on each of these points and put the information on your team page.
 * 1) What causes these pollutants?
 * 2) What health effects are caused by these pollutants?
 * 3) What can be done to reduce the amount of these pollutants indoors?

1. **Asbestos**- the causes are disturbed insulation, and fireproofing. Health effects are lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. To reduce this pollutant it is best to leave undamaged asbestos material alone, and use trained contractors for control measures that may disturb asbestos.

2. **Biological Pollutants**- causes are from dropping and body parts from rodents, insects, viruses, and bacteria. Health effects are infectious illnesses such as influenza, measles, and chicken pox. To reduce amount keep your house clean, and make sure heating and air conditioning equipment are working good.

3. **Carbon Monoxide**- causes are unvented kerosene and gas space heaters. Health effects are impaired vision, headaches, dizziness, and nausea. To keep CO reduced keep gas appliances properly adjusted, open flues when fireplaces are in use, and use proper fuel in kerosene space heaters.

4. **Formaldehyde/Pressed wood products**- causes are from the large amount of factories using it. The health effects are eye, nose, and throat irritation, may trigger asthma attacks, and could cause cancer. To reduce the amount use “exterior-grade” pressed wood products instead, use air conditioning to reduce humidity levels, and increase ventilation.

Josh Greek PD3 Work in teams to identify the 12 pollutants listed. In your group, you need to cover all 12 pollutants. Take notes on each of these points and put the information on your team page. LEAD 1. Lead-based paint and contaminated soil. When people breathe it in they get what is called lead poison. 2. High levels of Lead in the body such as 80 micrograms per deciliter of blood will cause convulsions, coma, and even death. Exposure on fetuses and young children can be severe. It can cause physical and mental development, lower IQ levels, shortened attention spans, and increased behavioral problems. 3. Keep areas dust-free and clean as possible. Do not sand or burn off paint that may contain lead. Do not bring lead dust into the home. NITROGEN DIOXIDE 1. Kerosene heaters, un-vented gas stoves and heaters. Environmental tobacco smoke. 2. Your senses get irritated. Lung functions and respiratory infections. It acts mainly as an irritant, affecting the mucosa of the eyes, nose, throat, and respiratory tract. 3. Keep gas appliances properly adjusted. Use proper fuel in kerosene space heaters. · Have a trained professional inspect, clean, and tune-up central heating system (furnaces, flues, and chimneys) annually. Repair any leaks promptly. PESTICIDES 1. Semi-volatile organic compounds 2. Irritations to eye, nose, and throat. Risk of cancer. 3. Mix or dilute outdoors, Use non-chemical methods of pest control where possible, and keep indoor spaces clean and well ventilated to avoid pest and odor problems. Radon 1. X-rays and kills cancer cells 2. The leading cause of lung cancer. 3. Radon reduction systems, make sure that there are no cracked windows, gaps in suspended floors, and gaps around service pipes.

__Respirable Particles__ -- Some of the sources are wood burners, kerosene heaters, fireplaces and chimneys and environmental tobacco smoke .It infects the nose eyes and irritates the throat, it could cause lung cancer. To reduce you should vent all outdoor furnaces to outdoors and keep doors to the rest of the house open when using space heaters. Close the properly sized woodstoves certified to meet EPA standards. And have a trained professional inspect, clean, and tune-up central heating system, repair all leaks properly.

__Secondhand smoke/ Environmental tobacco smoke__ -- Some of the sources would be human smokers ,Can cause an asthma outreach. To reduce this you can convince people to quit smoking and to quit smoking in the house.
