A lot of times, I can see airplanes fly above my house. This is because their routes run through the troposphere, which the lowest layer of the atmosphere. This layer is also responsible for the weather we have! #apesair@franklinlorax
My house is powered by coal which emits CO2 into the atmosphere. Other energy sources like wind and solar energy are cleaner for the environment. However, the problem with these energy sources is that they vary in availability and intensity. @franklinlorax#apesenergy
energy/electricity generated from wind turbines includes many pros. more specifically, wind energy is a clean, renewable source, and is one of the most cost-effective sources for electricity😁 @franklinlorax#apesenergy
The car I drive is a Hyundai Tucson, which runs on regular gasoline. But, Hyundai also makes hybrid models that are much better for the environment-they emit 46% less greenhouse gas than my car would. @franklinlorax#apesenergy
My yard has lots of rocks that’s are different shapes and sizes. When water flows through then we can determine the size and porosity. @franklinlorax#apesland
public land in WI is essential as it provides an economic boost, a source of clean air and water, protects vulnerable wildlife, etc. !!!! 😄@franklinlorax#apesland
This specific plant thrives with lots of water and natural sunlight, so for best growth we put it near a window and in soil that retains the right amount of water while still being porous enough to let air and water to all of its roots. 🪴 @franklinlorax#apesland
There are many different sizes and shapes of rocks. As water flows through them, we are able to identify these sizes through their porosity, permeability, and water retention. #apesland@franklinlorax
This is my brother Alex. Because we are the only two kids, we have an average sized family. This means we take up less resources and don’t have as big of a ecological footprint. #apespop@franklinlorax
Keltie’s family has 4 kids which is more than the average family so they need more resources than the average family. Julia’s family has 2 kids which is average so they take up less resources and don’t have as big of a ecological footprint. #apespop@franklinlorax
Even though temperatures can get very cold in Wisconsin, I am glad that I live in a temperate forest biome. Living here means we experience all four seasons! #apeseco@franklinlorax
