Document Summary
Looks like venice because of canals but also have roads on the side (they use bikes too) There is electric car charge stations all over the city. They use horizontal and vertical reactors to grow algae in order to produce bio fuel. A soil pit is used to analyze the different layers in the ground. A soil core is a rod that gets put into the ground and then pulled back up. Then we see what soil is left over on the rod. This way we can see the soil looked like during the ice age or when there were glaciers there. An artesian well is a pipe drilled into the ground where there is water trapped by a condensed soil. Deep lakes like superior can contain more heat. Lake erie is the shallowest and usually freezes over first. Last bit of ice melted in lake superior on june 2 1015. It was launched to sell images from space.
