@IR513615apes @franklinlorax such a good idea isha! now that the weather is nice i’ll try to walk around more

vehicles can produce nitrogen oxides (NOx). these can result in acid rain & photochemical smog, a secondary pollutant made from NOx + VOCs + sunlight (O3 is also made in this reaction). limiting vehicular use is important to reduce these emissions! @franklinlorax #apesair

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

wisconsin at night is not as polluted as major cities, so you can see the night sky, even if it’s cloudy. cities such as LA, on the other hand, have a layer of photochemical smog (haze)! @franklinlorax #apesair

wind energy is a unlimited renewable resource that exists due to the earth spinning & unequal heating of the planet surface. i spotted some wind turbines in the image below! negatives, however, include being a blight, noise pollution, & killing birds @franklinlorax #apesenergy

@SM507721apes @franklinlorax super cool! too bad they’re a bit of an eye sore...

Practicing social distancing during this pandemic is crucial!! My family often likes to pass time with the tv but we try to bike, walk, and and use less tech to stay busy, to stay safe and to conserve energy during isolation. @franklinlorax #apesenergy

this light is powered by coal, my family’s been turning off lights when we arent using them in order to conserve energy! #apesenergy @franklinlorax

Not only is leaving this outlet full of charging wires dangerous, but it also is a waste of energy. Try to unplug unneeded cords in your household to conserve energy! #apesenergy @franklinlorax

@IR513615apes @franklinlorax keeping covid-safe is great, even better if you’re saving energy!

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

@BL507835apes @franklinlorax how cool bill!! make sure to turn it off if it’s not really necessary to save a few cents

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

when i’m not actively using it, i make sure to unplug my phone charger to not use up energy and watts. though savings are minimal, i’m still doing my part to help reduce my carbon footprint 📲 #apesenergy @franklinlorax

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

@SM507721apes @franklinlorax that is so true!! i will keep that in mind when i plant new things :))

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

succulents and aloe plants require their soil texture to be sandy loam for them to fully grow. they do best in dessert climates, so they are not naturally found in wisconsin’s forests! #apesland @franklinlorax

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

@SM507721apes @franklinlorax that’s so interesting! many different types of soils help in growing different plants 🪴

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

@IR513615apes @franklinlorax that is so cool isha! i think i will attempt to go vegetarian to curb my ecological footprint. what a great idea 😋

[andrea aranda @andreaAPES]

@SL508756apes @franklinlorax that is very shocking!! i wonder how that will affect the land available for agriculture and livestock?

Though Covid-19 is not stopping the population of the US from increasing entirely, it is slowing it, causing the prediction of US population in 25 years to be more than 10,000,000 less than predicted in 2018 #apespop @franklinlorax

these banana were grown in a way that reduces the shipping distance. eating locally grown produce is a great way to reduce my carbon footprint, and lessen the number of earths my actions take up! 🌎 @franklinlorax #apespop

Glad I live in a temperate seasonal forest biome , so we can have all 4 seasons! WI winters are chilly but the summers are warm so there is a perfect balance :) @franklinlorax #apeseco

[Shubhreet Ghuman @SG507616apes]

Franklin is a great example of a temperate seasonal forest biome, there is snow on the ground and cold temperatures during the winter season. But when summer comes temperatures will become warmer and the snow will melt. @franklinlorax #apeseco
