Conservational Plan

Step One: Control the amount of litter and pollution around bodies of water by cleaning up litter and adding trash cans around the lake. By adding trash cans, the amount of litter in lakes and ponds would be reduced because it would convince people to throw away their trash if it was more convenient


Step Two: Regulate the amount of homes and businesses being built around the area and make it more difficult for homes to be built around bodies of water. Homes can lead to many problems for lakes and ponds because homes cause emissions to be released into the air. These emissions, such as CO2 can absorb into the water with a current and cause a low amount of oxygen in the area. Also, with large corporations, it is important to manage them because sometimes waste products are dumped into the rivers they are near which causes harmful pollutions to the water and low amounts of oxygen. 


Step Three: Constantly take temperature readings because high temperatures result in a low amount of dissolved oxygen in the water. It is important to watch that the temperature does not go to high, because if it does the dissolve oxygen count will go below normal making it impossible for fish to live there within a matter of days.


Step Four: Manage the amount of plankton and organisms living on the surface of the water. This can be potentially dangerous for the amount of dissolved oxygen because the organisms do not allow sunlight to go through when there is an abundance on the top of the water. This prevents photosynthesis from happening which results in a low amount of oxygen in the water.


Step Five: Maintaining the amount of sunlight by removing large objects such has buildings, bridges, and trees. the shady areas that these factors create limits the amount of sunlight able to get through. Without sunlight, plants will not be able to grow and preform photosynthesis, which releases oxygen to the water.
