Dear to whom it my concern:  I am a 7th grade student at Nagel Middle School and I am doing a social studies project on the drying up of natural resources. I was wondering if if you could answer a few questions of mine. If you can't could you let me know if someone can. 1. What do you do to help conserve our natural resources? 2. What natural resource is most endanger and are you focusing on one natural resource at a time? 3. How could a regular day citizen of the USA help? 4. Do you have a program to help get money to buy natural resources? <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">5. Do you have volunteers to help or do you pay the helpers like it's a job? <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;"> Please get back to me at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your time I greatly appreciated it.

There are so many ways you can do to help to fight climate change. Some of them are less hands-on than others, but they all lead in the right direction.

<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Facts: <span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Roman:


 * 1) The Romans were working the topsoil to hard so it started to go bad then the government couldn’t feed the people.
 * 2) The Romans had lots of trees and then they started to deforest ate them.
 * 3) Wood was a primary source of heating and was used a lot which caused the numbers of trees to go down.
 * 4) Houses were made out of wood so they were built repeatedly because of fires.
 * 5) Animals grazed and destroyed land areas unsuitable for cultivation.
 * 6) When natural resources were depleted in already occupied regions of the Roman Empire, the military was sent to not only to defend lands of the Romans, but also to accumulate other areas of interest that had a plentiful supply of timber to accommodate the needs of the Roman economy.
 * 7) Animals started to overgraze such as sheep, cow, and other animals

Today:


 * 1) At the rate we're using the natural we will have to find another planet to live on by 2030
 * 2) We are using 30% more natural resources every year
 * 3) Every year we are doing more deforestation, we degraded soils, polluted air and water, and even are having declines in numbers of fish and other species
 * 4) The problem is also getting worse as populations and consumption keep growing faster than technology finds new ways of expanding what can be produced from the natural world
 * 5) 27 countries are importing more water than they can consume which proves that humans are taking more than they need
 * 6) You can help save the earth by doing simple things such as plant little trees, or you can grow a garden and eat the plants you grow(such as tomatoes, carrots, or other vegetables)
 * 7) Instead of using non-reusable resources start using solar power energy, or use wind power
 * 8) In 2005 the citizens of the USA used more wood than ever before and steel production grew 10% to a record 1.24 billion tons in 2006
 * 9) To help save the earth we need to reduce, reuse, and recycle it’s the most affective and simple thing to do

Solutions: <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; display: block; font-family: arial,helvetica,'helvetica neue',sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: left;">-Pick a energy supplier that generates at least half of its power from wind, solar energy and other clean sources. If you don't have that option, look at your current electricity bill to see if you are able to support renewable energy in another way. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; display: block; font-family: arial,helvetica,'helvetica neue',sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: left;">-High-mileage cars such as hybrids and plug-in hybrids use less gas and save money and you could just drive less. <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333; display: block; font-family: arial,helvetica,'helvetica neue',sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: left;">-Heating and cooling consume about 40 percent of energy in the home. Sealing drafts and making sure that your home has adequate insulation are two easy ways to become more energy-efficient.
