We have gone on a field trip to deer island and have seen the inside of a waste water treatment plant. We got to learn how waste water is cleaned through pipes in which gravity, microrganisms, and many more environmental aspects help clean our sewage and waste. We got to learn how this process is helpful to the environment and is more effecient than using machinary. The deer island facility was also the second biggest in the US and treats over 2 million people. Facilities like this are everywhere in the US treating people's waste water so that it is safe for the enviornment.
It's good to know this and to have because if we were to not have these than we would lose parts of our planet due to unsanitary living conditions. If waste is not taken care of then there would be disease everywhere, more pwople would die, and we would have less space on our planet to live. Waste water treatment plants help treat this problem and allow us to live with less disease around us.
Good! 5/5
