    The most interesting thing that I learned about aquaculture is that fall of the worlds seafood comes from it. That means it is important to keep our waterways clean so we dont damage our own food supply.

    It is easy to get in your own car and not care about the environment but using public transportation is more efficient not only for you but the planet too.

    I find that all of these things connect together and if I keep the planet clean I keep my family, faith, and community safe and healthy as well.
