If you're part of a group, stay with your group, it can be very easy to find yourself alone and lost. Be safe and make sure to watch for vehicles if working by a busy road.]]> 2018-11-14 16:00:11 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304367630 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304369837 Make sure to cover-up and try to stay protected from the sun. Having too much sun can expose you to skin cancer and other skin diseases. Always put on sunscreen, it has many benefits!]]> 2018-11-14 16:03:20 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304369837 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304372777 If you don't follow the safety rules, then you and your health, or even life, can be at risk. By working outside there's a risk of:
- getting skin cancer, if in the sun to long
- getting lost
- getting hit by a vehicle
There are many ways to get hurt while working outside so, make sure to stay smart!]]> 2018-11-14 16:07:10 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304372777 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304851445 Always know where you're going. If your studying on a trail, be sure to follow the trail markers and exit the trail the same way you came. Avoid getting to dead end or even cliffs. Try not to get lost and watch your step!]]> 2018-11-15 15:32:52 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304851445 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304852473 If studying bushes or trees with any type of berry or fruit, or even leaves, do not eat it! Be sure of what it is before consuming. Make sure nothing you eat is poisonous, it will not end well and is a huge safety hazard. Don't eat anything unfamiliar, or probably anything you're studying, it's not a good idea. ]]> 2018-11-15 15:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/304852473 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/308332894 Let's say you are doing some research somewhere in a forest and as your walking along the trail, with the rest of your group, you come upon an animal, or bear in this scenario. What do you do? According to my research it's best to:
- evaluate the situation
- slowly walk back the way you came
- don't run and keep your eye on the bear to see how it will react
-don't panic!]]> 2018-11-27 15:38:13 UTC https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/308332894 peeps727 https://padlet.com/peeps727/safetyoutside/wish/308342056 1.)
