1. How do the earth systems affect each other? all of the earth systems are interconnected to each other so each system play off from each other. for example air from the atmosphere mix with water from the clouds, it can create rain or snow and that can fall on the earth's surface. 2. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? It can bring people the knowledge and the understanding of the earth's system and how we can stop things that are affecting those systems in a bad way. 3. What efforts can we make to create a sustainable future? less pollution on earth which can change the climate in a good way, slow down the extinction of many animals, and many more.

1. How do the earth systems affect each other? Earth systems affect each other 2. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? A understanding of environmental science can aid in handling natural disasters because as we complete this project and continue to learn about the environment we may know things that others do not that can prevent another possible natural disaster 3. What efforts can we make to create a sustainable future? Efforts we can make to create a sustainable future is simply becoming eco friendly and recycling.

essential questions: 1. How do the earth systems affect each other? The hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere are the earth systems affected by droughts. Droughts affect the lithospheric crust(geosphere) as it gets completely dried up due to water shortage. This causes all living things in the area to dry up and die because of excessive sunlight and little to no perception. 2. How can an understanding of environmental science aid in handling natural disasters? understanding Environmental Science can aid in handling natural disasters because you know the cause and effect that the disaster has on the world. understanding environmental science can help prevent the loss of the things that get destroyed. although we can not stop natural disasters it helps to know what problems they can cause and how to fix them. 3. What efforts can we make to create a sustainable future? for droughts, we can Conserve water is really important when experiencing a drought. For example, turning the water off while you brush your teeth and taking fewer showers are ways to conserve water during a drought. other things that we can do are in the infographic listed under Do's and Don'ts 4. Your reaction to your findings and overall project: I thought that there would be more about droughts but it's all really basic information. It hasn't happened a lot where it is a huge problem that people deal with. I think that our infographic looks amazing and the information on it, in my opinion, is very helpful to people who want to know more or live in an environment where droughts are likely to happen.
