Typo: with these strategies
Increasing water storage
decreasing water usage
increasing water collection options
recycling

please describe 2 environmental problems

Let me start you off with the storage problem. This is most often done with reservoirs, streams backed up by dams. For water supply, you want a full reservoir. This is the worst thing you can do if there is any danger of floods. For flood control, you want an empty reservoir. For water supply, the reservoir will fluctuate to even out supply and demand. Fluctuation is bad for fish, wildlife, and recreational use of the reservoir.

O.K., you take it from there.

Living things that can directly convert energy from the sun or use environmental chemicals to make food energy are called _____________.

autotrophs

heterotrophs

decomposers

savengers

The answer is autotrophs. Think of it as they can ‘auto’matically make their own food/engery thru proceeses such as photosynthesis.

I am a consultant about to launch a new service on Long Island in New York (June) in environmental and greening. I am interested in talking to anyone that might currently be doing the same sort of thing for the printing and graphics industry.

Try checking the ForestEthics website. Sounds like exactly what they are doing.

They get more concentrated as they move toward the top of the food chain.

I completed college with a four year degree in environmental studies. The jobs search is a bit rough and I am not even sure I really want to commit to the environmental services industry as a career for the rest of my life. I am considering just starting over and seeking out something I would be passionate about pursuing the rest of my life…….pretty cheesy, I know……..Just looking for some honest and varied advice. Any and all is appreciated.

I am kind of in your shoes….I went to school (4 long years) to do Property Management. Once I got in the field, I found out you don’t make anything unless you OWN the property…managers are like slaves. I am now applying in retail, and got called for my first interview today. It is scary, but we are young- keep looking and trying new things…I believe when the right thing comes around you will know…life is too short to not be happy at work! That’s for sure! Good luck to you!
