My PSA highlights food insecurity in Philadelphia, showing its impact on health and the environment. It calls for support for local initiatives to address this issue, emphasizing its importance for human well-being and environmental sustainability. I chose this topic because food insecurity is vital to address because it affects human health, exacerbates poverty, and disrupts ecosystems. Understanding it fosters empathy, drives action for social justice, and promotes sustainable food systems for a healthier future.

Something I would do differently is make my video more visually appealing

The most meaningful part was learning the severity of this issue in our community and seeing so many non profit organizations that work everyday to spread awareness to the problem and help our community and people through this issue

Biodiversity and natural resources provide essential ecosystem services, support livelihoods, and contribute to cultural, aesthetic, and scientific values. Things like Deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, overfishing, and urbanization are human actions altering Earth’s natural systems. individuals, communities and nations can live more sustainably by reducing consumption, embracing renewable energy, promote conservation, prioritize local production, implement eco-friendly practices, and foster environmental stewardship. This project helped deepen my understanding and allowed me to see and learn about all the unsustainable practices that take place in the healthcare industry that many people may not be aware of, we all see the healthcare industry as beneficial to us as people, although the healthcare industry benefits individuals by providing medical treatment, preventive care, and health education, enhancing overall well-being and quality of life etc, the healthcare industry has many problems within the industry that effects the world as a whole due to their lack of sustainability, one of the most unsustainable practices in the healthcare industry is their excessive medical waste generation, overuse of single-use plastics, excessive energy consumption, and reliance on non-biodegradable materials in medical equipment are unsustainable practices. For this project I created the physical model, and contributed to researching the problems and how we can improve the quality of the healthcare industry, and created the slides. I think we did really well with both the slides and the physical model along with our presentation, I think we thoroughly explained everything and represented everything well with our physical model and I am proud of the outcome of the overall project .

The biosphere, which includes all life, and the geosphere are the two primary components into which scientists split the globe. The lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere are the four subsystems that make up the geosphere. These subsystems cooperate to impact geological processes, change the climate, and have an impact on life on Earth because of their interactions with the biosphere and one another. All of these system work together to allow the earth to function properly

Because we have a greater understanding of how natural catastrophes occur and the hazards they represent, knowing environmental science can help us deal with them. Knowing environmental science can help us be ready for future natural disasters. For instance, in many states, teachers advise students to seek shelter beneath their desks during a tornado. This, in my opinion, is very crucial that week seek understanding for why these things happen so we can know what to do, how to prepare and possibly prevent or help it. In addition, it’s usually advisable to keep them as low to the ground as possible during tornado warnings. People can better prepare themselves by knowing what they are dealing with and, more crucially, how to prepare for it if they cannot prevent it, with the help of an understanding of environmental science.

Doing this project definitely opened my eyes to how severe tornadoes are and how it affects us as people, animals and just our environment as a whole
