      We all need clean water along with toilets and decent hygiene to stay healthy. They should be a part of everyone's daily lives, everywhere - but they aren't. We have the ability to modify that. We're working in some of the world's most difficult places with the help of incredible people like you. With these three necessities, we've already reached millions of people, allowing entire communities to stay healthy, unlock their potential, break free from poverty, and change their lives for the better. While installing faucets and toilets is an important part of our job, we also do a lot more. Water is only the beginning, from campaigning to engineering. We all know that 750 million people without access to safe drinking water is not normal. It should not be normal for 2 billion people to be without a functioning toilet. Poverty should not be the norm. We've already made significant progress thanks to extraordinary people like you. But there's still a lot more work to be done. And enduring change isn't just a pipe dream. Within a generation, we can provide clean water, decent toilets, and good hygiene to everyone, everywhere. At a time, one village, one area, and one country.

    Hello Richaed I thought your blog about water was very good, I never really knew or cared about water because its always been there for me but i forget there are many people without it or clean water that is safe to use.

    I like your blog and the facts you mention about people not having access to clean water. I think it is a serious issue that society is not talking about. Overall, great post!

    While reading your blog I realized that people outside of our country is struggling to have access to clean water. I think the website you found was good because it means that there are people helping these countries and people.

Blog post #2 Deforestation

 Mason Mitchell             To begin talking about deforestation first it helps to understand exactly what deforestation is. Deforestation is the purposeful clearing of forested land. The next thing to look at is why is this problem occurring? Deforestation occurs for multiple reasons. Through history forests have been razed to make room for agriculture and animal gazing as well as to obtain wood for fuel, manufacturing, and construction. The main problem with deforestation is it’s causing more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere this speeds up the process of global warming causing climate change to become worse.  So what can we do to solve this issue.  Well there is hope in fact deforestation is starting to decrease in North America because of conservation efforts form multiple non profit organizations. There are multiple move to across our country and our world that deal with planting trees and protecting forests. We can do our part and...

blog 9 conservation and extinction Natasha Provinse

     This will be the last blog post I  do on this topic, I have been researching and learning about the issues of conservation and extinction for several weeks now and I feel a lot more personally connected to this issue. this exercise has helped me gain a new understanding of the threat we face in our world today. Nobody knows how many species are being lost each year nor the  total number of species that inhabit the earth today.   According to wwf panda organization , "Biologists estimate there are between 5 and 15 million species of plants, animals, and micro-organisms existing on Earth today, of which only about 1.5 million have been described and named. The estimated total includes around 300,000 plant species, between 4 and 8 million insects, and about 50,000 vertebrate species (of which about 10,000 are birds and 4,000 are mammals)." these species are considered   threatened  and about 23 percent of these species are at risk or on the...

Blog 9.) The Importance of Biodiversity - Dayton S.

Image
Biodiversity is very essential in large ecosystems. The most noticeable, is the resource availability. With plenty of water, comes plenty of insects. The insects pollenate plants, which bring in amphibians and rodents, and fish. This draws in small predators like birds, reptiles, fox, and many more and this keeps going on and on. As long as the biodiversity is large within an ecosystem, it will continue to grow. Reintroducing biodiversity could rejuvenate a declining ecosystem as well, but this needs to be done very intricately so you do not cause a situation like the invasive species which causes a new issue. Why are our ecosystems dying if they can rejuvenate themselves through biodiversity? Well once again we as humans harvest anything we can from ecosystems. This not only hurts an ecosystems biodiversity, but we also stain the ecosystems with particular means of harvesting. For example, loggers use heavy machinery and power tools to do their job. This leaves oil everywhere, damages...
