1. Hi everyone! Here is the link to my final project film on Water Pollution in Lake Washington and short essay below: https://vimeo.com/422295003 (Links to an external site.) Water Pollution in Lake Washington Final Project Our world has faced major environmental issues, but water pollution was the topic that piqued my interest the most while finding a topic for this project. Water is the most important resource on earth for all living and non-living beings. Water is needed for almost everything in anyone’s life, whether it’s doing household chores, cooking, farming, industrial activities, entertainment activities, etc. Even if we heavily depend and rely on this resource, it doesn’t account for how humans use it carelessly and not thinking about how it causes water pollution and water scarcity. Ever since I began doing household chores and cooking more frequently, I’ve realized that how a lot of people don’t consider the usefulness of water. I often see my mother drinking water bottles but won’t ever refill her bottle after she’s finished using it or she’ll dump half of the water bottle out, or I’ll see my boyfriend brushing his teeth and he’ll leave the water running while he’s not even using or needing it. Not only is water beneficial to humans, but also to living animals and insects. I have two cats and when their water bowls are running low on water, it makes me wonder what they would do without the resource. They would be extremely dehydrated and probably get sick or die. Those are just a couple of examples that inspired me for this project. Considering the fact that water is a major resource, I feel like some people need to cherish it more. My project has developed over the course of the term because I’ve been taking more accountability for my own actions and trying to be more responsible with water resources. I’ve also been trying to educate and help my family limit their water intake. Some solutions to preserving water that I’ve been incorporating into my daily life are taking shorter showers, turning off the water while brushing your teeth, using a broom to clean driveways, sidewalks, and steps instead of water, and more. The research that I did for the environmental issue that I selected was mainly all online. Professor Cram helped me narrow down my topic to Water Pollution in Lake Washington and linked me to a website that was very useful for this project. I started my research process off by researching more facts about Lake Washington itself. The King County website had great factual information about the lake and more about the water quality, species composition, and changes to the organisms in the lake. I also found a Youtube video that demonstrates and shows the audience what is found at the bottom of Lake Washington which is great to show the audience. I’m surprised that there are a lot of random items such as old cars, trains, and more at the bottom of Lake Washington. The Youtube video will be great for people to see be.

1. Formulate the Abstract section of your selected topic. Make sure that your Abstract contains the following sub-sections: * Background Information on the Problem * The Objective of the Study * Method Used * Interpretation of the Results * Conclusion & Recommendations for Future Research Example: Background : The temporary protective status (TPS) is a document granted by USCIS to eligible nationals of certain countries, who are already in the US. It was granted to the Haitian community after the earthquake back in 2010 Objective : The purpose of this study is to explain why Haitian with TPS should be granted a green card. Method : For this research study, a meta-analysis method was used. Various data relating Temporary Protected Status (TPS) were collected and specifically sorted. The information was compared to a narrow path regarding solely to the Haitian community. Results : TPS has received many extensions over the past ten years; now it is just a question of when the US government will close their eyes on the Haitians people. This uncertainty causes many fears in the community. Conclusion : The research will help know whether Haitian in the US with TPS will get a green card and which way. Furthermore, this study will help a lot of Haitian living in USA, also those that might come temporarily to know the stress they will be facing. Recommendations : It is recommended that future research be done to collect more information on legalization like asylum, family-based citizenship through USCIS, and conduct quantitative-qualitative studies on the same topic. Keywords: temporary protective status, Haitian community, immigration, government legislation, green card for Haitians .
