REFLECTION QUESTION
Action Track: Earth Day Together! Special Earth Day Engagement

What did completing this action teach you about contacting your representatives? Was it easier/harder than you thought?

Heram Zahra Amiri 4/25/2020 10:42 AM

It's a good and easy way than thought because someone didn't have the courage for sharing ideas. In my mind, it's an easy way to contact and share your idea and suggestions with the representative.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Fresh Water Get Involved in the Water Justice Movement

Who is affected by polluted water or a lack of access to water in your region? How are they affected?

Heram Zahra Amiri 4/18/2020 10:46 AM

In my region most poor and needy people affected by polluted water because most of them live in the countryside. They often use the river's water. In my mind, they are not aware of the diseases which can cause by polluted water. In addition to that, they are not available for filters and other kinds of stuff for cleaning their water and also there is a lack of clean water and they need to use these kinds of water.
