1 Environmnetal Science With Mrs. Jensen

2  Station 1 BLUE  Station 2 YELLOW  Station 3 PINK  Station 4 GREEN  Station 6 WHITE

3 Work Cooperatively to choose the following:  TOP 5 things humans need—most important  BOTTOM 3 things humans need— least impo rtant When finished, send 1 person to record results on white board.

4 Life does NOT exist without  Water  Food/Nutrition  Clean Air/Oxygen  Health/Medicine Have you ever NOT had access to any of these?

5 During the readings, think about how life in the US is different from other parts of the world.  US Population = 300 million+  World Pop. = almost 7 BILLION  What can YOU/ME/WE do to help?

6  What problems are the crew of Apollo 13 facing?  How can these problems be solved?  Do you see the correlation?

7  Running out of Power  No Waste Dumps  Only Solutions can come from materials they have on the shuttle

8  Fossil Fuels  Where should we put our waste?  Solutions must come from the Earth

9  Raise Awareness  Learn small changes we can make every day that have a BIG impact  Become GLOBAL citizens  The purpose and goal of environmental science is SUSTAINABILITY.

10  Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

11  Do you have any reusable cups? How much do you save?  How much would you pay for a reusable cup?  Should people by them to save $ or to save the Earth?

12 An Ecological Footprint is a measure of the amount of resources from Earth needed to support a person’s lifestyle.

13  Access this document on the Shared folder—Students, Environmental Science, “Ecological Footprint”  Homework: You will be asked to share your results in class tomorrow, but you may turn in assignment today….but don’t forget you learned!

14  Each of you will be responsible for sharing a tip over the course of the semester on recycling days.  I will give you several examples, and a couple days to research and create.  FORMAT:  RRR topic/Reading  Why it is important to RRR this product/effects on the Earth  Solution/What we can do to help!

17 You should create several questions for classmates to answer from the readings for this part. 1. How is our plastic debris/garbage negatively affecting our oceans? 2. What are some negative effects of paper bags?

18  How are other places around the globe tackling this problem?  Make something from them!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvc7ZCYf 30U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvc7ZCYf 30U
