My family and I try to do our best to recycle and make sure the correct garbage gets where it is supposed to. We want the evironment to be the best as possible! #APESwaste @franklinlorax

E-waste is the fastest growing source of waste in the world right now. To decrease the amount of E-waste that I contribute, I use devices with batteries that can be recharged up to one thousand times. #apeswaste @franklinlorax

@FranklinSabers On Earth day I made sure to take a nice walk with my dog and appreciate the world around me! #GainFHSAPES

Basements are a part of nearly every house in our area. Due to high levels of radon resulting from the breakdown of natural uranium, this used to be a huge risk for lung cancer. @franklinlorax #apesair

A contributor to air pollution is gasoline. It releases vapors and toxins into the air. Burning gasoline produces carbon dioxide which is a greenhouse gas.#apesair @franklinlorax

Quarantine has caused us all to stop using our vehicles less which has led to less emissions and anthropogenic gases which is great for the environment! Although quarantine has been bad, trying to continue these practices into the future could be great. #apesair @franklinlorax

@JacobkleczkaA @franklinlorax I think it’s great that the Earth is getting some time to recover right now. Great job jacob!

[John Mirsberger @JMirsAPES]

The vapors given off when gas evaporates (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and unburned hydrocarbons) contribute to air pollution. Burning gasoline also produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. #apesair @franklinlorax

@StauberNick @franklinlorax PS4’s use about 5 cents of energy per hour of gaming. This seems very cheap but actually classifies it as something that uses a lot of energy!

[John Mirsberger @JMirsAPES]

While being at home, I have spent lots of time using things like my phone, computer, headphones, and calculator. When these devices need to charge, they get energy that is created by the coal power plant! Very cool stuff @franklinlorax #apesenergy

[jacobkleczka @jacobkleczka1]

Every time I leave a room in my house I make sure to turn off every switch to avoid unnecessary energy usage. This is a great way to save energy and help the environment! #apesenergy @franklinlorax

@JKojicAPES @franklinlorax It is also important to know which logging style best suits the type of trees being cut down in order to make sure that we can log sustainably

[Nick Stauber @StauberNick]

Just to make the products in my kitchen, logging must occur in order to have hardwood floors and cabinets, while the granite countertop is an igneous rock formed when magma cools! @franklinlorax #apesland

A few years ago I was able to visit the Hawaiian islands. During this land unit I learned that the Hawaiian islands were formed by a hot spot occurring in the middle of the Pacific Plate, and that each island is successively older toward the northwest. @franklinlorax #apesland

@JKojicAPES @franklinlorax Very smart decision! The Mercedes is a cool car and gets better gas mileage than a big truck

After taking the ecological footprint quiz I found that it would take 3.9 earths to support me. However after making changes to my lifestyle I cut it down to 2.4 earths. If we all take the initiative to change we could make earth a much better place!@franklinlorax #apespop
