@LM_Campbell I realize this is a very tall order/broadly ended question but any perspectives/leads/suggestions you could provide me with would be immensely helpful! Thanks so much.

@LM_Campbell Hi Dr Campbell! Ontario undergrad student here. I was looking at your work on low-dose selenium additive and wondered what solutions to water pollution have seemed most effective in your studies?

@LM_Campbell I was looking at your work and the approaches suggested regarding inorganic water pollutants. Based on your research I was wondering if you might have some insights regarding approaches to solving inorganic pollutants such as microplastics.

@LM_Campbell I am in an education course with @Laurier and our task involves receiving a reply from an expert in their field regarding our proposed problem and solutions. My chosen topic is the impacts of water pollution on aquatic biodiversity.

@MadjidMohseni Hi Professor Mohseni! I’ve read you’ve done work on micropollutant removal specifically for organic materials. I was wondering if you know of any good approaches to address the removal of inorganic pollutants e.g., microplastics?

@howarth_cornell Hi Professor Howarth! I just read an article foodandwaterwatch.org/fracking_endga… in which you were quoted regarding fracking companies impact on plastic production and the resulting impact on aquatic ecology. How can we best support the shift to renewable energy sources?

#EM203Mueller Interesting UNESCO Stats visualized through awesome tools!

4Ocean @4oceanBracelets founded by Andrew Cooper and Alex Schulze is an ocean cleanup project that has accomplished pulling over 5 million pounds of trash from the world's oceans. Supporting ocean cleanup projects like these will make a difference in water pollution.#EM203Mueller

#EM203Research #EM203Mueller Let's not stop at just saving the turtles, we need to save all aquatic life!

Here is a link to a Non-profit organization Solar Impulse Foundation that details 1000 different possible solutions to decreasing water pollution, let's make a difference for all aquatic biodiversity! solarimpulse.com/water-pollutio… #EM203Research #EM203Mueller

@EM203ErinL Hey Erin! After looking at your concept map one problem you can look into is the scarcity of clean drinking water and how contamination of drinking water affects the ones involved regarding their overall health. #EM203problems #EM203mueller

@Michael98336785 #EM203problems Hi Michael, I liked your outline of the possible ramifications of the Trump Administration on the global economy. The new free trade deal between Canada, US, and Mexico and the number of tariffs on goods such as steel might be of interest.

@EM203RileyL #EM203problems Hi Riley, a possible issue you might want to look into is illegal lobbying practices, recently this scandal in Canada has been very prevalent in the press. cbc.ca/news/canada/mo… Ps. I really like your topic on account of my love for House of Cards.

@em203kbattglia #EM203problems Hi Kyra, I thought an interesting exploration of obesity might be the rising costs of typically more healthy options, such as fruits and vegetables and the rising popularity of plant-based diets.
