Smoke Stacks
Introduction:

The reason that I came to this program is for the learning. This week I learned about the power plants and how a forest fire start and that there are only two fires that can come about. The two are control fires and wild fires. I learned that there are a lot of haze that is in the Grand Canyon. The haze does not effect the poeple unless they have asthema and can effect the animals when they are flying around the area. In the pollution there are SO2, NOX, CO2 gasses that comes out. The people should help the Grand Canyon by not contributing to the haze problem that already exist.












Recommendation:
My recommendation is to have less prescribe burns in the Grand Canyon area, and use better technology to put out forest fires.

Positive Consequences:
1. Less haze.
2. Save livestock.
3. Healthier environment for everybody.
4. Save the trees.

Negative Consequences:
1. More money.
2. More research.
3. More help.
4. More pollution.
