Starvation wages forced me to live in my car with my two babies. Starvation wages left me making decisions between keeping the lights on and food on the table. Stop blaming unemployment benefits for worker shortages and start paying people a livable wage.

these are my succulents,, they improve air quality in my room by releasing o2 throughout the whole day, not just when the sun is shining ! #apesair @franklinlorax

@zachhederapes @franklinlorax kyle should really unplug some of those! also love the guest appearances

Kyle has lots of extra things plugged in that he isn't using, which uses more energy than he needs to, increasing energy bills for his family @franklinlorax #apesenergy

@DudorSamuel @franklinlorax very cool sam very cool and innovative😎

My breaker box distributes energy all throughout my house. I am sure to turn off all facilities when not in use to keep my energy usage to a minimum. By lowering the amount of energy I use, I can reduce the CO2 emissions in the environment! @franklinlorax #apesenergy

wind energy is a unlimited renewable resource that exists due to the earth spinning & unequal heating of the planet surface. i spotted some wind turbines in the image below! negatives, however, include being a blight, noise pollution, & killing birds @franklinlorax #apesenergy

@TZ509743apes @franklinlorax great idea !!

this light is powered by coal, my family’s been turning off lights when we arent using them in order to conserve energy! #apesenergy @franklinlorax

@DudorSamuel @franklinlorax i’ve never heard of a christmas cactus before , very cool to know that’s a thing!

Plants, like the Christmas Cactus, rely on clean and healthy soil. Making sure its acidity, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium levels are in their proper regions, plants can grow big in no time! #apesland @franklinlorax

@MJ518064apes @KS508629apes @franklinlorax great work , rooting for yours 😌😌

clearly, our soil’s tests did not go so well. so, we added different ingredients to improve levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and the acidity of the soil to increase the plant’s chances at survival @franklinlorax #apesland btw our radishes the tallest atm@VincentJanisze2

@KS508629apes @franklinlorax thank you ! 😚

This plant isn’t real, but plants that look like it, ex: Grapevines, need clay soil and grow best with compost on the top of the planting site. #apesland @franklinlorax

@EZ507743apes @franklinlorax i also live in a low density housing area ! :))

My neighborhood contains low density housing, which wastes more land than high density housing. In order to keep land for future generations, high density is more effective for saving space. #apesland @franklinlorax

succulents and aloe plants require their soil texture to be sandy loam for them to fully grow. they do best in dessert climates, so they are not naturally found in wisconsin’s forests! #apesland @franklinlorax

@andreaAPES @franklinlorax super interesting andrea!!

In my Vietnamese culture, people eat chay (or vegan) a few days a month - typically the 14th and the 15th of each month. These cultural practices are tied to Buddhism. Now if everybody became vegetarian, we could feed 10X more people on Earth. @franklinlorax #Apespop

@BL507835apes @franklinlorax its super interesting how much only 2 days can affect agriculture trophies levels all around the world !

@lg508768apes @KS508629apes @franklinlorax such a great idea ! im def gonna start trying to carpool more too

carpooling with my friends helps me reduce my ecological footprint. doing this reduces co2 emissions! @franklinlorax #apespop
