Rather than taking public transportation, we walked around Green Bay saving energy as well as reducing our ecological footprint! #apesenergy@franklinlorax
Using natural light instead of ceiling lights saves energy measured in joules. This reduces the demand for electricity, conserves resources, and lowers emissions, promoting sustainability. #apesenergy@franklinlorax
every time I leave my house I make sure to turn off all of the lights since they use electricity, this helps save energy and reduce my carbon footprint. #apesenergy@franklinlorax
The San Andreas fault formed about 3 million years ago as the North American plate engulfed nearly all of the Farallon plate. Since then a strike-slip fault has occurred. @franklinlorax#apesland
Clay beads can be used in soil mixtures because they have great water retention! These little beads soak up water and release it in small increments which helps keeps plants hydrated! @franklinlorax#apesland
Rainy days exemplify how driveways are designed to be porous on inclines, allow rainwater to infiltrate, mitigating runoff and pollution. This facilitates groundwater recharge and enhances water quality, offering environmental benefits. #apesland@franklinlorax
@FarahApes@franklinlorax Good job pointing out the specific outcomes of the terracing method! Terracing creates level shelves on hillsides to hold water and soil for growing crops. Adding on, it's also important to note a con to this method, as it can get very expensive.
@mcknight_anna13@franklinlorax Good point Anna! San Andreas is explored for insights into seismic activity, earthquakes risks, and strategies for mitigating environmental impacts in earthquake-prone areas, particularly in California
Terracing is a method of growing crops on the sides of hills or mountains by planting on graduated terraces or steps built into the slope. this method also maximizes arable land and reduces water loss.

This is a picture of the San Andreas fault - a tectonic boundary. If this was to shift or break it will cause many injuries and deaths. #apesland@franklinlorax

Sand is the largest of the three soil particle sizes, sand, silt and clay. Sand has high permeability and lets water easily flow through it. #apesland@franklinlorax
I carpool with my friends any time I can as a way to reduce my ecological footprint. That overall then helps reduce carbon emission into the air as well. #apespop@franklinlorax
@FarahApes@franklinlorax Hi Farah! I totally agree! The balanced US population pyramid, with a bit more guys until age 20-25, gives us a useful peek into the number of people in different age groups and genders. It's like a snapshot of our population makeup.
The US population pyramid is nearly symmetric about the vertical axis, reflecting that all age groups contain roughly equal numbers of males and females. There are slightly more males up until the age group 20-25.

@mcknight_anna13@franklinlorax Great job choosing a reusable water bottle! It helps cut down on plastic waste and is a simple way to be kinder to the environment. Well done!
Understanding GMO pros and cons in my fridge guides eco-friendly meals. While reducing pesticides and boosting yields, concerns like pest resistance, gene spread, and unclear long-term effects highlight the need for caution in agriculture. #apespop@franklinlorax
