@MattDav66551887 @franklinlorax We are very fortunate to have good air emissions!! Helps keep us healthy:)

While driving, cars release NOx, which pollutes the atmosphere. But, since we are in quarantine, there are less people traveling with cars, which means less NOx being released into the atmosphere! #apesair @franklinlorax

Last night it was raining pretty hard!! The layer in which weather occurs is called the troposphere! @franklinlorax #apesair

When I’m not charging my laptop, I like to unplug the charger to save energy! Less energy = less money!! @franklinlorax #apesenergy

In my house, my family uses Zilotek LED bulbs. They only consume 14 watts of electricity, which adds up to using less than $2 every year in energy. Another plus is that these bulbs can last up to 4 1/2 years. #apesenergy @franklinlorax

There are 6 layers of soil. This image shows the top most layer of soil, which is humus. Humus is composed of leaves and decomposed organic debris. Right below the humus is the topsoil, then subsoil, next is rock fragments, and at the bottom is bedrock. #apesland @franklinlorax

New York City displays an example of high density housing because buildings are located very close to eachother whereas in residential locations there is lower density housing because houses aren’t as close together meaning more land is being used. @franklinlorax #apesland

@ApesDanielle @franklinlorax Wow how beautiful!

@pitcher_clare @franklinlorax I would love to take you to practice to lower your ecological foot print!!

If everyone lived the way I do, we would need 4.6 earths. I can reduce my ecological footprint by carpooling to school and practice! @franklinlorax #apespop

Another way to reduce your ecological footprint is to eat more locally-grown food or even carpooling to school! @franklinlorax #apespop

My family has 2 kids- me and my sister, which is just the right amount to replace my parents on this Earth, and to help keep the United States population stable. #apespop @franklinlorax

@ApesDanielle @franklinlorax This is just so sad.

It’s sad that most of the time, we as Americans take our resources for granted, and we don’t usually think about the people that aren’t as fortunate as we are. #apespop @franklinlorax

I'm using two computers at once even though I really don't need to. This increases my carbon footprint minimally but still increases it @franklinlorax #apespop

Both Clare and Nandini really enjoy these Almond Pops. They are a source of macronutrients and provide lots of energy to both of them throughout the day!! #apespop @franklinlorax

@ApesDanielle @franklinlorax That’s awesome!!

Us humans are examples of K-Strategists because we reproduce relatively low numbers of offspring!! #apeseco @franklinlorax

@ApesDanielle @franklinlorax I eat these too!!! Great thinking!

@pitcher_clare @franklinlorax Great thinking!! & Maggie is cute

Maggie is an r-selected species because dogs breed once or twice in their life and have a larger number of offspring. The offspring don’t require too much parental care before reaching maturity. #apeseco @franklinlorax
