Don't worry, I'm not going to make you work too hard! I just thought how many people go about their lives without really knowing some of the major influences on the land where they live, so I thought I'd challenge you to find out these five things about where you live!
One:
What is the latitude of your city/town/village/farm?
Two:
What is the annual average amount of precipitation (rain and snow)?
Three:
How many average days of sun do you get per year?
Four:
What is your watershed (what river, lake, or ocean if you're right on the coast, does water drain to when it rains, besides what trickles down to aquifers)?
Five:
Name five plants that are native to your area.
