Sparks.
We all know the devastation Katrina gave, right? As for those who do not, not only do you need to watch the news, but you need to know. Well, New Orleans was drowned, basically. This may sound, disgusting, but it did spark a sense of my stubbornness. It starts like this. The lake broke what was holding it back, so is basically made a lake of New Orleans. The water was fresh water, so it sits there and stagnates(Not sure if right would) and all other disgusting things deteriorate within in, flesh, petroleum, the other materials made from what was held into the city. Now, there is only one place to put this water that has been, for lack of better words, corrupted. They are pumping it back into the lake it came from. This lake was the lake New Orleans got it's own supply of fresh water from, it was also an ideal place to swim, and fish. New Orleans will not have those same qualities when it is back and running. They also have a way to purify the water, and this is what sparks at me the most. They could, run a small amount of this corrupted water down the big river next to it, the Mississippi river. Okay, everyone who has lived in Texas has at least seen Galveston, the water is, actually, VERY clean. The Mississippi river runs into it, making the currents go to Galveston and makes it look dirty. If this corrupted water goes to Galveston, it would 'corrupt' that water as well. My Biology teacher told us this, and he said that was what they were most likely to do. Someone asked if they knew that Galveston would be effected, he said eventually. Eventually. Will eventually keep this water clean? Will eventually help those in New Orleans? That was like a big, flashing red button for me. _-_ Doesn't this effect any of you?
