Tap water - the whole truth

Do you really know what you're drinking? 

In many countries you can't drink the tap water, while in switzerland this is everyday life for us. But why can't you drink tap water everywhere, and is it really as healthy in Switzerland as we think? Because of these questions and because we want to sensitize people to such an important topic, we chose tap water as our project.

C-Project - Update Laboratory

Finally we've found some laboratory analyze the water for us. The “WASSERKLAR einfach vital” in Bäretswil has agreed to examine the water with us. We will be able to examine the water for pollutants such as bacteria and germs, heavy metals, light metals, pesticides, drug residues, hormones, microplastics, legionella, multi-resistant germs.

We are so excited about it. Even though it won't be early enough (so that we can post it directly in our article) we will update it later and it's still going to be super interesting for us to analyze the water.

The use of fire

  

Hi everyone,

Fire is a very interesting energy. It can be dangerous but on the other hand also very useful.

Where fire certainly emits a lot of danger is for example in forest fires.

The area of destroyed forest in the Mediterranean region due to forest fire is estimated at 1 million ha per year.

In the pdf you can find a video where you can see such a forest fire

 

Would you like to know how fast fire spreads and how this energy is used in the past, present and future?

Then you are exactly right here.
