Pollution has also lead to bleaching to coral reefs. As more people tour; more trash spreads. hannah_sharp1 https://padlet.com/hannah_sharp1/s8nh0cqieh1b/wish/259413435 2018-05-09 18:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hannah_sharp1/s8nh0cqieh1b/wish/259413435 Certain foods suggest a specific culture.

The land is our food, our culture, our spirit and identity.” Not only does dirt have meaning, they have reasons to other environmental substances. Some have a sacred water hole where no man or women shall touch. They may also do dances to summon those spirits. hannah_sharp1 https://padlet.com/hannah_sharp1/s8nh0cqieh1b/wish/259415560 2018-05-09 18:41:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hannah_sharp1/s8nh0cqieh1b/wish/259415560 Subsistence agriculture is a self-sufficiency farming system in which the farmers focus on growing enough food to feed themselves and their entire families.
