122. Peterborough Green-Up's Low Water Garden At The Ecology Park Commission, this garden will give you some beautiful ideas for your own low water landscape. Straw and leaf compost are also available at the ecology Park on http://www.greenup.on.ca/xeriscap.htm

Xeriscape (Low water) garden Each summer, we consume vast amounts of water in caring for our yards. In fact, some years Peterborough consumes twice as much water during the summer months, mostly due to lawn and garden care. This places an enormous burden on our water treatment plant. The water we use in our yards is purified to drinking standards, which requires expensive energy and chemicals. What a shame to pour our drinking water on our plants, especially when they would prefer rain water! There are many ways to use less water while still keeping a healthy and attractive yard. Low water landscaping is called xeriscaping. It is based on choosing plants which tolerate hot, dry weather, and learning how to make a little water go a long way. Low Water Plants Once established, these plants look attractive even in dry weather: Flowers and Ground Covers - amaranth, lavender, bearberry, marguerite, bearded iris, nicotiana, black-eyed Susan, purple coneflower, coreopsis, sedum, cosmos, snow-in-summer, daisy, sunflower, day lily, thyme, gaillardia, yarrow, lamb's ears

HE Departments DEA DNS HD PAM TXA Home Water Quality Pages See Also... Water Quality Fact Sheets In 1986, improving water quality was set as a major national initiative for Cooperative Extension out of the need for a deliberate, coordinated program addressing the spectrum of ground water contamination problems. Increasing public understanding of the dynamics of ground water is a momentous challenge to Cooperative Extension. The quality of public water supplies is regulated by the Safe Drinking Water Act , and the New York State Sanitary Code . However, the quality of private drinking water supplies remains the responsibility of the homeowner. For this purpose, the protection and quality of private drinking water supplies has been a focus of the Water Quality Extension Program in the College of Human Ecology at Cornell. Home*A*Syst This self-help program helps people evaluate their home and property for pollution risks and health hazards. Educational materials and other forms of assistance are available. Septic System Maintenance This program educates homeowners about the proper care and maintenance of their septic systems. Fact sheets, brochures, and videos are available.

Anaerobic organisms do not require oxygen for their life processes, in fact oxygen is toxic to many of them. Most anaerobic organisms are bacteria or archaeans autotroph Any organism that is able to manufacture its own food. Most plants are autotrophs, as are many protists and bacteria .

Schultz of the International Shark Attack File (ISAF) in documenting shark attacks from the Pacific Coast of North America. This initial objective was soon broadened to include conducting original research on the general biology, behavior and ecology of sharks indigenous to waters off the Pacific Coast , with particular emphasis on potentially dangerous species.

Brian Whetham-Furniture Maker Ebb and Flow Ebb and Flow Ltd started their work with water and Flowforms in 1991. The Flowform water sculptures generate a variety of swinging and pulsing flow patterns purely due to their shape and proportions. The idea originated in the 1970s through the work of John Wilkes while he was researching the nature of water and its role in the forming of living organisms. This research is continuing and is shedding light on the subtler influences of planetary movements and on the underlying geometry of many organic forms. The harmonious and therapeutic qualities which the Flowforms can create in an environment have led to many installations in medical centres and schools. However Ebb and Flow also specialise in pond and wetland systems for sewage treatment where the Flowforms are part of a very functional and beautiful water landscape. Ebb and Flow run training courses in pond and wetland design, also Simon Charter gives talks and workshops on the role of water in life processes. Flowforms are cast in reconstituted granite by the students at Ruskin Mill and marketed by Ebb and Flow. There are many designs which can be seen working in the valley and surroundings of the mill.

129. Water Poverty Index (WPI) The water Poverty Index. Millions generations. The water Poverty Index (WPI) captures the characteristics that link water and poverty. http://www.nerc-wallingford.ac.uk/research/WPI/

The Water Poverty Index Millions of people throughout the world do not have enough water to sustain their livelihoods — so they have reduced capacity to lift themselves out of poverty. The relationship between poverty and water is complex, but water is such a valuable resource that it must be managed responsibly, to ensure long-term sustainability for future generations. The Water Poverty Index (WPI) captures the characteristics that link water and poverty. It has been developed in consultation with water researchers, practitioners and stakeholders. This international multi-disciplinary team has identified key issues that provide the framework for a holistic composite indicator, combining data from the physical and social sciences. The WPI framework can be applied at all levels. Communities can assess their own WPI values, and make comparisons. A training package will ensure appropriate in-country capacity so that this can be achieved.
