climate change

Climate change is a problem that is affecting people and the environment. Greater energy efficiency and new technologies hold promise for reducing greenhouse gases and solving this global challenge. EPA's website provides information on climate change for communities, individuals, businesses, states, localities and governments.

Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are often called greenhouse gases. This section of the EPA Climate Change Site provides information and data on emissions of greenhouse gases to Earth’s atmosphere, and also the removal of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Sewer treatment plant

At the sewer treatment plant we learned about the sewer system. we learned that there is a big filter that takes out all of the solid matter and large inorganic objects. the water pumps through big pipes and goes into large tanks where microorganisms eat away the waste and organic matter. after that the waste is treated and pumped back into the river as clean water.
recylcling is good for the environment i have always recycled and i will continue to because it is good for the environment.
