"Plants provide nourishment for our bodies and souls. With the help of protist and fungi, plants provide the oxygen we breatheand the food that sustain us - either directly, or by feeding other animals. Plants provide shade over our heads and cool carpets under our feet while surrounding us with beautiful colors and marking the change of seasons"
We should be able to maintain constant open lines of communication with the other teams in order to work successfully as a team and as a whole group. We will satisfy ours in terms of information related with the different environmental aspects that may affect the life of the plants, fungi and algae. We want to determine the current state of plant, fungi and algae life in the Amazon rainforest. We are aware of the impossibility of doing this for every individual plant, and even for each species, so we will chose exemplary cases of study within the different layers. We will measure this state by measuring the efficiency of biological processes such as the amount of light received to drive photosynthesis, the amount and quality of water, temperature, etc. We also need to know how these lives are changing and why they are changing. In this case we will focus in finding the rate of change of the efficiency of the biological processes mentioned before and we will identify the major threats. We will develop strategies to preserve plant, fungi and algae life. First we will determine a realistic ideal state, which will direct these strategies. Our final goal is to develop a content rich website which will characterize our understanding of the previews goals and we want our product to be comprehensive and practical enough to be implemented by someone.
