What are finite resources?
• Good Soil
• Clean Water

Ecosystem
We are part of the larger ecosystem. We should protect it
because we live in it.
-create laws to protect natural resources
--choose good practices: recycle, conserve water and soil, use organic
fertilizer not chemical pesticides, limit driving
--set industry standards to protect environment
CO2, SO2, NO3 gases
from smoke stacks
Industry

Lowers pH and destroys aquatic
ecosystems and terrestrial ecosytemstrees and other plants and animals
