Cost- 6-8 million dollars; get it through taxes and donations
Who to contact- city council, NRPA; industry persuading people on the value of parks and health benefits, citizens; making posters for donations and support
Installation- factory certified installers, to help stay in the budget volunteers from the community to help operate and build the park
Outcome- There would be less pollution in the air from the process of the carbon cycle because there is more plants. More oxygen would be produced because of the process of photosynthesis.

Today I helped my group research our “needs to know” list questions. I helped collect answers and sources.
November 27, 2018
Today I made sure that our project idea and solution was reasonable enough to appeal to our chosen audience.

11/26/18 - I constantly reminded my partners that our answers had to be connected to the driving question
11/27/18 - I made sure that our solution and notes had to do with the driving question
12/3/18- I made sure that our plan was good for the environment
12/4/18- I reminded my partners that our data has to be based on the driving question

# data[].attributes.body
November 26th- today I checked the sources to make sure the went along with our notes and were reliable
November 27th- I researched an answer to our question and checked several sources to make sure it was reliable
December 4- today I checked the dates on websites to make sure they were up to date and reliable answers
December 10- today I went back to each fact and checked the website to make sure we had our sources cited

- Los Angeles is the most polluted city in the U.S.
- benefit because they filter pollutants in the air, provides shade which lowers the temperatures, and lowers the chance of erosion of soil into waterways.
- making more space like tearing down useless buildings and using that space to put in more parks
- parks can be really expensive and a lot of work to keep up and take care of them.
- photosynthesis is a process where plants change carbon dioxide, light energy, and water into oxygen and glucose. This helps the environment because it provides oxygen for us to breathe. In order for this process to occurs we need more plants and trees in our environment and parks can help with that.
- respiration is the process of breaking down glucose. The reactants are oxygen and glucose. The main product is ATP
- The carbon cycle is carbon traveling the atmosphere in organisms and the Earth then back into the air. Goes to plants and animals and all around like one big cycle.
- last year the carbon dioxide average was 405 parts per million
- plants take away at least 25% of carbon dioxide in the air

-tear down useless buildings for space for parks
-leave a certain amount of space where buildings cannot be built for a park in the future
-Install more parks in cities in need (polluted, populated) like San Francisco
