'This MONTH In Science' #10

What We DID
       This month we have been doing stuff regarding human impact.We were actually working with the Human Impacts Institute.We were the water group.We first went around the neighborhood and asked people to take the questions we had on a survey that we made about how much water they use.Then we studied our data.then we experimented with 3 types of water,brooklyn tap water,fish tank water,and school water.then we tested the hardness,chlorine and feces.then we started working on designs for T-shirts.We first looked at a bunch of pictures and criticized them.Then we started drawing them and we finished them.And the whole week we were taking other groups surveys.


What We LEARNED
       We learned that people didn't really care much about how much water they used form our surveys.Also that people choose cars more than any other sort of transportation.We found that there was feces in the fish tank water and the school water which was surprising.And its pretty hard to make a T-shirt design and the different stages you have to go through to make a design,and when you are making a design people dont like a lot of words but do like pictures.And from the surveys from the other groups i learned that i dont use up a lot of things.
