I am most interested in preserving WATER! It's a natural resource that is quickly disappearing. If more people would re-cycle rain water, we wouldn't have such a water shortage at various times during the year.
How about every facet of our natural environment. The trees, water, air, land.....
I suppose that since humans can only survive so long without water, water interests
me most! Although, having clean air to breathe is also a necessity.
Many thanks, Cindi
Our trees and water. I just hate seeing a few years ago a big area of nothing but beautiful trees and to go back tothat same place years later and see that they are all knocked and torn down for whatever reason.

I want to preserve as much as I can! We should try to reduce our impact on the planet!
i dont know much about going green but i am very interested in the effort. recently ive started using different cleaning supplies around the house, and my fiance installed energy saving bulbs around my place. were taking one step at a time. i think going green is important especailly for us parents to do because our kids catch on to everything we do and when there older our habits will more than likely be their habits.
I love being able to do little things everyday on a local level to keep my town and water clean. If when out and about with the kids and we see trash in the park that we come across then we will find a trash can instead of it ending up in the lake. My son is attending a preschool in a LEED certified building with a huge emphasis on nature and the environment. Learning all about the environment, not allowing paper products for snacks, using environmentally friendly cleaning products is such a great way to teach our ity bitty's to take care of our planet. They even had a vermi composter the other day! This is what I want to preserve, our local woodlands and lakes so that our kids and their kids can still enjoy the beautiful outdoors.
water! I am worried that there will not e enough water for future generations. This is also an area that I vastly need to improve on learning to conserve.
I am interested in protecting the water quality and natural state of our mountain streams. My father is a flyfisherman and has witnessed first hand the degradation in the quality of these waters. The streams are what feed the larger bodies of water that we draw our drinking water from.
Look at me, take a long, hard stare.

I wish I could click my heels three times and be transported back to a time when healthcare was not a business and patients were more than a commodity. I am NOT a healthcare provider. I’m a physician who was taught to heal.

That's a great question, thanks Maya. I'd say, for my purposes, 6 kids.
What I'm putting together is more like an op-ed than a study. No hypothesis just wondering what people think . Any more comments would be greatly appreciated
