Plants are essential for human survival. During photosynthesis, plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen. Humans convert oxygen into carbon dioxide. This picture represents how humans are beneficial (in some ways) to plant life and how humans would not survive without plants. We must work together to thrive.

When SpongeBob says "lets act like plants," he breathes in and out, implying the process of sunlight coming in and releasing co2. As a young child, I remember thinking about this scene to remember what photosynthesis was and how plants survived. ]]> 2020-09-21 01:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/762665942 rboston3 https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/799244651 Callicarpa americana, also known as the American beautyberry. ]]> 2020-10-02 22:43:58 UTC https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/799244651 rboston3 https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/839080353 I believe Grasslands are in the most danger of ecological change. The precipitation in lots of grasslands is getting smaller and smaller. These grasslands are also experiencing increasing fires, destroying wetland habitats. The destruction caused by the fires have also forced animals to migrate to survive. ]]> 2020-10-18 18:13:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/839080353 rboston3 https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/878840684 This diagram accurately represents the effects of the agricultural revolution. Before the revolution, humans only grew what was needed for them to survive. Humans had very limited food consumption due to lack of option. Plants were domesticated, creating easier processes for consumption. Now, humans get more of a share of food.]]> 2020-10-31 17:41:50 UTC https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/878840684 rboston3 https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/986181890 This is what I imagine the world will look like if we continue the use of fast fashion, plastic, and global-warming gases in 100 years. I think technology will be very advanced like shown in the movie Wall-E. People will be too lazy to even walk anymore. My hope is that we can make the entire world aware and all on the same page moving forward. We can do better.]]> 2020-12-04 00:42:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rboston3/otmfyxl15ht239tz/wish/986181890
