It has plenty of renewable, recyclable, and nonrenewable resources that we need to survive, and also has features that will protect us from the zombies.

This is where we can get our water to survive.]]> 2016-10-14 18:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/130856293 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132182164 A recyclable resource is a resource which naturally cycles through the environment. One recyclable resource we need to survive is water. Water is a recyclable resource because it goes through the water cycle.]]> 2016-10-20 18:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132182164 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132185988 The red star shows where Sitka is.]]> 2016-10-20 18:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132185988 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132577389 Renewable resources are resources which, over time, can be replenished. Examples of renewable resources are oxygen, animals, plants, crops, and solar energy. Renewable resources that we can use to survive in our settlement are animals such as fish. Another renewable resource that will be helpful to us are trees and crops. ]]> 2016-10-23 23:36:41 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132577389 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132579546 In Sitka, there are many renewable resources which we can use as food. A big food source will be fish. As said before, there are many freshwater streams and lakes in Sitka that we can fish in to find food. Another renewable resource that we will be using to survive are crops. Sitka is surrounded by trees, so clearly the soil is right for growing things. We can grow things like corn, wheat, carrots, and more. ]]> 2016-10-24 00:11:22 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132579546 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132580850 Nonrenewable resources are resources that once used up, cannot be replenished. These resources include things like coal, natural gas, gold, and iron.  Fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources that are created from the remains of plants and animals over millions of years. An example of a fossil fuel is petroleum (oil). Nuclear Fuels are nonrenewable. Nuclear fuel is uranium found underground. There is a uranium deposit under Sitka. This nonrenewable resource can be used when our civilization runs out of fossil fuels, uranium can be used to create energy for Sitka for a long time.]]> 2016-10-24 00:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132580850 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132580934 Sitka is surrounded by mountains, which will serve as protection from the zombies. Also, to arrive at Sitka you need to cross water in some way because Sitka is surrounded by water. This will help to slow down the zombies.]]> 2016-10-24 00:33:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132580934 abigailconnors https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132583605 Sitka, Alaska has tons of trees in it. The one thing that zombies are scared of is fire. We can use the wood from the trees to create fires, which will help to keep out the zombies. ]]> 2016-10-24 01:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132583605 williamzachman https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132718754 The Trans-Alaska pipeline System is a pipeline used for moving oil it is pumped and made into a gas. It's used for many things such as gas for cars, heating homes, and much more. The pipeline was made so that the oil is moved safely and doesn't hurt the environment so for us we can get oil and use it for making our houses heated in the winter and if we need to travel and do other things than we are also covered for that too. When we get the oil and gas we can travel to the Wishbone hill coal mine in the Matanuska Valley, Alaska, by Usibelli Coal Mine, Inc. The site is approximately 5 miles west of Sutton, AK. It is estimated to contain 14 million tons of bituminous coal.]]> 2016-10-24 14:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailconnors/w6njfoc1jklz/wish/132718754
