Water Pollution Research

Question
What is the environmental/social sustainability issue? Water Pollution- The contamination of water due to human activities. This happens when untreated pollutants reach the bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, and the ocean. This happens when chemicals get into the water and harm fishes. In simple words, it gets so bad that you can not drink, bathe, or wash clothes in it.


 What factors have caused this issue? People dropping their rubbish, disposing of fossils in the deep-sea ocean, and farm runoff into the sea. Discharging of sewage is one of the main causes that cause water pollution. These things travel underground to the water bodies.  Farmers spray chemicals to fertilize their crops. When it rains the chemical gets washed off plants and runs off to the ocean.

What will happen if this issue continues to degrade? If this continues to degrade, all the aquatic creatures will die. All creatures that rely on the water will die which includes animals, birds, fishes, and humans. If we drink contaminated water, we will get sick and eventually die. The sea creatures make 80% of the oxygen we breathe. If they die we will die too because we will not have any oxygen to breathe.
What are the possible solutions to this issue (either being currently done or could be done)?  There are some things that are currently being done to stop this. One is reducing the usage of water when washing dishes and taking a shower. This reduces the amount of dirty water needing treatment. Another one is to not throw rubbish in the sea, this causes the sea animals to choke on it. There are some things we can do to stop this. One is making compost for greens disposal. Use a minimum amount of detergent and bleach when washing clothes or dishes.

Conclusion
From this, I learnt that water plays an important role in our life. If we don’t drink water, we will die. We have to keep our water bodies clean this means pollution-free. We have to save our aquatic animals because they are more harmed before we are. We cannot drink, bathe, or wash clothes in this polluted water. This happens because of us human beings. We throw rubbish in the seas and oceans, discharge fossil in deep seas, discharge sewage waste into the rivers. One main thing we do is spray chemical to fertilize our plants and crops, later on, when it rains, this runs off into the river.

I have also learnt that everything on this planet relies on water and if we run out of the water we will die. This includes the fishes, birds, animals, and us too. If all the aquatic animals die, we will die because they give 80% of the oxygen. We can stop this by using less water so that there is less water that needs treatment. No throwing rubbish in the seas and oceans. We must protect our seas and oceans in order to live.

Unit Recap

We have completed everything in English and this is my evaluation.

What did/ didn't enjoy? I enjoyed filming the video because I did not want to get in the video. I enjoyed editing because I liked watching bloopers. I did not enjoy writing a blog post because it was really hard to think.  What would you do differently? I would use better camera angles because some parts of the video look bad when joined together. How was working in your group? It was ok but could have been better if all the group members cooperated a bit more. Are you happy with your finished product? I am really happy with my finished product because this is my first time making a film. May have been a fail but at least I tried.

On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first human to step on the moon. He and Aldrin walked around the moon for three hours. They did experiments and picked up bits of moon dirt and rocks. They put a U.S. flag on the moon. They also left a sign on the moon.






The two astronauts returned to orbit, joining Collins. On July 24, 1969, all three astronauts came back to Earth safely.  President Kennedy's wish came true. It took less than 10 years. Humans had walked on the moon.
