Thanksgiving.


For Thanksgiving I traveled to the Ozarks. I spent it in a cabin out in the middle of nowhere, deep in the country of Protem, Missouri. Right by Arkansas. The cabin had an entire wall covered with huge windows that displayed a view of my entity in enlarged form- Bull Shoals Lake, a similarly man-made lake surrounded by an expanse of trees and grass. It was a bit grander than the lake in the IU arboretum though.

Environmental Sustainability.

My entity is located at the center of the IU arboretum, a botanical garden featuring a wide expanse of grass and a variety of trees and plants. More trees could be planted to promote environmental sustainability because it would ensure that the arboretum would continue to flourish and not be diminished in the future.

Abiotic Environment


Abiotic features, such as sunlight, precipitation, and temperature create direct changes in my entity. When there is more sunlight, my entity's water is heated and rises in temperature. When it rains, precipitation feeds my entity and causes its water levels to rise. When the weather gets colder and temperatures drop, my entity can freeze from water to ice.
