This is my cactus! It will need many things such as sunlight, soil, water and more to grow. A cactus only has to be watered a few times over an extended period of time to grow! #apesland@franklinlorax
This is my cactus. It needs good soil and needs to be watered every so often. In the land unit we learn that plants need fertilizer and water and other things to give it the nutrients it needs to thrive. #apesland@franklinlorax
This is my aloe vera plant. We make sure not to water the plant too much and that the soil we use is not regular gardening soil, but a soil that has perlite in it! #apesland@franklinlorax
A lot of the plants that are in my house need different things to grow. For example, one of these plants grows best with clay pebbles that improve permeability. Others use potting soil with humus to give the plants nutrients! @franklinlorax#apesland
This is a Christmas Cactus! The makeup of our soils can make or break products it helps create. The ideal pH of the soil for this plant should be 5.5 to 6.2. Also, as you can see, there is much humus in the soil which helps create a nutrient filled soil. #apesland@franklinlorax
My mom drives a Honda CRV which is a pretty fuel efficient car, averaging about 28 miles per gallon. With the population growing everyday, limiting our gasoline consumption would is great for lowering our ecological footprint and keep resources available @franklinlorax#apespop
Working on a computer reduces the amount of paper waste in the world. Individually this would lower my ecological footprint @franklinlorax#apespopulation
On vacation, my family and I walk instead of using these vehicles (cars) as our transportation to help reduce our ecological footprint. #apespopulation
These grapes are organic which means that there was no use of pesticides or GMO when growing it. Organic produce are usually smaller, healthier, and more expensive because it was grown naturally. @franklinlorax#apespopulation
We use solar paneled lights on our front patio to use less energy. Using solar energy reduces the demand for fossil fuels and that means less carbon dioxide in our air. @franklinlorax#apespopulation
By using a reusable water bottle, I am able to cut down on my ecological footprint. Everyone should use a reusable water bottle to prevent their ecological footprint from becoming higher! @franklinlorax#apespop
