Although most of our school work is now online, a lot of our teachers still hand out paper assignments. Today, paper counts for over 41% of our landfills and the US only recycles 25% of our paper consumption. @franklinlorax #apeswaste

In e-waste, there are harmful chemicals that need to be recycled properly. Otherwise lead, cadmium and lithium can make there way in our ground water in landfills. #apeswaste @franklinlorax

@ThiemDaniel @franklinlorax We are very lucky to have radon detectors. Especially with the higher levels in our area. #apesair

Radon is coming up from the soil all around us, and is mostly prevalent in basements. These radioactive particles damage the cells lining your lungs. Make sure to get your air quality checked! #apesair @franklinlorax

@ColeGentz @franklinlorax Never really thought about all of the people that ride by themselves... carpoooling is a great idea #apesair

In a typical high school parking lot you see a lot cars from students driving themselves. This means a lot of CO2 and other harmful emissions will be released. Carpooling is a great solution that helps reduce the amount released and helps save our planet. @franklinlorax #apesair

With the recen low pressure system that’s move through wisconsin we were left with some snow on the ground. Snow has a very high albedo compared to black top which soaks in most of the suns light. #apesair @franklinlorax

@DNackel @franklinlorax You are majorly impacting the twitter population with this information. It’s crazy to think that coal can be so powerful.

This energy that is used in the school for lighting, and majorly everything, is from a coal powerplant that is burned and converted to energy for us. @franklinlorax #apesenergy

@ColeGentz @franklinlorax It seems like many people are switching to gas fireplaces.

Burning wood for fuel may seem easy but it actually has a lot of negative effects on the environment. For example it causes more soil erosion, as well as it removes oxygen producers from the environment. #apesenergy @franklinlorax

Using natural gasses to cook up some Mac. Natural gas burns much cleaner than coal. #apesenergy @franklinlorax

Brian ran a track meet today. He ran very fast. If he would be able to run on a turbine, he would create a lot of energy. Conservation of energy at its finest. #apesenergy @franklinlorax

@DNackel @franklinlorax Such an excellent inference Drew! Thank you with providing twitter with such ground breaking information... get it! Hahahaha @franklinlorax #apesland

The land here in wisconsin and in North America lies on the North American plate boundary! #apesland @franklinlorax

@yurboibrian @franklinlorax Great comparison! #apesland @franklinlorax

The porosity of this napkin is similar to fine pebbles, making it harder for the chocolate milk to pass through. #apesland @franklinlorax

The top layer of soil (O) is made up of organic material or humus. It helps retain moisture in the soil and helps plants be more accessible to nutrients. Humus also helps to improve the overall health of the soil. #apesland @franklinlorax

The franklin quarry is an example of a strip mine. It is an example of open face mining. Even though they are only extracting rock, it is still considered mining which surprises many people. #apesland @franklinlorax

This child is malnourished. That is when you don’t get the correct balance of nutrients in your diet. I do have to say he’s pretty swole 💪🏼 @franklinlorax #apespop
