that's cool! LED lights conserve more energy than other lights too

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

good point! small things like this can help so much

[Hannah Breslow @HB508405apes]

Items like this power strip use lots of energy when it's plugged in. By unplugging it when it's not in use, we can save a lot of energy. This is a small and easy way to preserve energy in your household! #apesenergy @franklinloraxs

there are many ways a rock can form and create unique rocks like this one that was found on the shoreline of the UP. metamorphic, igneous and sedimentary are the main 3 types #apesland @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

unlike my moss ball here that lives in water, most plants require different types of soil to thrive. things like pH levels in the soil can affect a plant! #apesland @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

it's interesting how many different types of soil there are. good thought!

[grace krawczyk-burish @gkb508442apes]

Differant types of plants need differant types of soil for them to grow the best! Some plant don't grow well if the soil isnt the right for them. Some plant grow best in sandy soil while others grow best in clay or silt. Plants rock 🪴#apesland @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

interesting how these things can affect plants and their growth!

[Maron J @MJ518064apes]

clearly, our soil’s tests did not go so well. so, we added different ingredients to improve levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and the acidity of the soil to increase the plant’s chances at survival @franklinlorax #apesland btw our radishes the tallest atm@VincentJanisze2

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

these are trees i have in my yard that provide natural habitat for animals and release oxygen into the air. it is important that if my family ever wanted to cut the trees down we make sure to replace them with new trees to keep our environment sustainable #apesland @franklinlorax

Our ecological footprints are worse in the United States than most countries. Using reusable water bottles and lunchboxes are one way I help reduce my footprint every day #apespop @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

Living in a MDC like the United States means infant mortality rates are very low. Just being born here makes it more likely for us to survive past the age of one! #apespop @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

This is something easy everyone can do to reduce their ecological footprint. Nice insight!

[grace krawczyk-burish @gkb508442apes]

Using reusable bottles/products like this can help reduce your ecological footprint. It is important to be aware of your footprint and see what easy changes you can do to help reduce it. Doing small changes like these will help! #apespop @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

This is such a good idea! Cutting meat out of your diet doesn't mean you can't still have delicious food

[Hannah Breslow @HB508405apes]

My family cooks 2-4 meatless meals a week. This reduces the agricultural land, we eat at a lower trophic level and still enjoy delicious meals! @franklinlorax #apespop

[grace krawczyk-burish @gkb508442apes]

Dogs like this one here can be considered k-strategist because they produce few offspring and live longer. They are not R strategist because R strategist produce a lot of offspring but don't live as long. @franklinlorax #apeseco

[Hannah Breslow @HB508405apes]

Cats like this mine are k-strategists because they have few offspring, nurture them and they live longer. Unlike r-strategists which have many offspring, provide no parental care and few survive. #apeseco @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

Living in a temperate seasonal forest biome makes snowy winters like this possible for us. Can't wait for the warm summer to come back though! @franklinlorax #apeseco

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

There's some debate about whether dogs like Jinx here are r or k strategists. They're r compared to humans and whales, k compared to rats and fish! @franklinlorax #apeseco

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

@JD516516apes @franklinlorax I never realized that fish are r-strategists, pretty cool!

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

@RJ508769apes @franklinlorax its so cool that we have these kinds of forests here! so much wildlife lives in them

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

My family has a huge collection of reusable water bottles. They keep single-use plastic ones from ending up in waterways or in an animal's mouth! #apeswater @franklinlorax

[trinity coppernall @TC508418apes]

If reusable bottles aren't a choice for you, refill your plastic one. The expiration date on the side of the bottle tells you when you should recycle it and get a new one #apeswater @franklinlorax
