In class 612, we are learning about dirty water, and how we can clean it. In Brooklyn NY, the Gowanus Canal is so filthy, that if you touch the water in there you can easily catch a disease.
The Gowanus canal has 1,000s of dangerous chemicals, and objects that are unsafe, to the environment, and to all of it's surrounding. The government is trying to clean the bodies of water that are filthy. We are learning this because we want the future, to be cleaner and safer for us, and other people in the world. We also learned, that to save water, we have to fix the leaks,turn off the tap water,take showers for less minutes, and instead of using a hose, to wash your car, you can use a bucket and a sponge.
