         <description><![CDATA[<p>My name is Angelica Vasquez, I'm 21 years old originally from Peru, I have been living in Miami FL for 5 years and I am doing a major in communications since I love visual arts.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Regarding work experience, I have been working in a clothing store doing customer service for about two years since I was studying in high school. I plan to retire to be able to apply for a theater to relate more to my career and develop short courses to be able to undertake better economically.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Something characteristic about me is that I have the asocial personality trait, for which I tend to lack interest in social relationships, even so, I try to set myself challenges that improve my interactions and to be able to change this aspect every day. Despite this spectrum, I am pretty empathetic and I like to listen to the history of others.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>About my hobbies, I adore the seventh art, I enjoy going to the theater most of the time, and I like to consume all kinds of audiovisual material such as anime, movies, and series in general.<br>&nbsp;<br>I am glad to be in this class and allow me to learn more about all kinds of subjects, especially ones as interesting as general biology.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my project proposal, I chose to apply for the "Transit Buddy Program" assignment, with the objective of capturing my best friend's first experience using public transportation. Recently my best friend was left without personal transportation due to an accident, which will lead her in a few days to use public transportation to get everywhere and mainly her work. At the end of the week, I will ask a series of questions to help gather all the information she can provide about her experience. Let's see how she does on her first ride!</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Genesis decided to venture into public transportation for the first time, for two months, due to an accident that left her without her usual private transportation. Her opinion of public transportation is positive, although there were pros and cons during her journey.</p><p><br></p><p>The challenge she encountered was that the schedules were quite limited, sometimes requiring her to wait for hours for the next bus. However, thanks to the Transit app, she found efficient routes and accurate schedules, making her trips smoother and ensuring timely arrivals at her destinations. The app provided peace of mind by offering real-time information, optimizing her travels.</p><p><br></p><p>During this time, she experienced colds, flu, and excessive coughing. In a visit to the doctor, she discovered that she contracted streptococcus. The doctor asked her a series of questions, suggesting that she likely obtained it through the use of public transportation, as this bacterium easily spreads in crowded environments like public transit. The doctor pointed out that homeless individuals often spend the night inside buses, contributing to the spread of bacteria. Since then, Genesis adopted more rigorous hygiene habits while traveling, such as carrying hand sanitizer and avoiding touching her face.</p><p><br></p><p>The benefits of public transportation include accessibility, reducing traffic congestion, and contributing to environmental sustainability. However, drawbacks encompass the potential for contagion, as Genesis experienced, and unforeseen schedule disruptions. Despite this, Genesis appreciated the positive experience provided by public transportation and committed to balancing its benefits and challenges in her future travels.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I propose enhancing the nighttime cleaning of public transportation in Florida by allocating additional staff and implementing thorough disinfection protocols. To address the presence of homeless individuals, collaboration with social organizations could be established to provide shelter and services. This would not only improve hygiene but also tackle the underlying causes of the issue. Public education on the importance of cleanliness and the promotion of respectful behavior would contribute to creating a healthier environment for public transportation users.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Week 7: The Common Woolly Bat</title>
         <author>angelicavasquez003_</author>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The Common Woolly Bat (Kerivoula papuensis), native to Indonesia, faces a perilous threat of extinction due to a combination of habitat loss, climate change, and human activities. Deforestation, driven by agricultural expansion and logging, is a primary factor disrupting their natural habitats. This bat species heavily relies on forested areas for roosting and foraging, making it particularly vulnerable to such habitat degradation.</p><p>Moreover, climate change exacerbates the challenges these bats face. Alterations in temperature and precipitation patterns can disrupt their feeding habits, as they primarily feed on insects that are sensitive to these environmental shifts. This imbalance in the ecosystem can lead to a decline in their food supply, further endangering their survival.</p><p>Human activities also pose a direct threat. Pesticides and habitat fragmentation from urbanization can directly impact their health and reduce their available habitats. Additionally, the illegal pet trade and hunting exacerbate their population decline.</p><p>Conservation efforts are crucial in order to mitigate these threats. These should include habitat restoration, protected areas, and sustainable forestry practices. Raising awareness about the importance of these bats in maintaining ecological balance is also paramount. By addressing these issues, there's hope for the Common Woolly Bat to be pulled back from the brink of extinction.</p>]]></description>
