Ecology Lesson


Tuesday, 2nd June 2009, 08:00
Today we had a biology lesson but we were not in the school building. Our lesson took place in a special centre. Inhabitants of the city of Jastrzębie Zdrój are provided with fresh water which is delivered to their households from the Czech sources high in the mountains. The modern sewage farm and its Education Centre for Ecology in Jastrzębie was built with the help of the European Union fund. During the lecture which was translated for our guests by Ms. Justyna Świercz, our English teacher, we found out a lot of water circulation in the environment and a serious problem of nitrate pollution. We could see how huge modern facilities and invisible bacteria work to make dirty, polluted water clean enough for beavers to live in it.
A comic which was a gift from the Center made the lesson more memorable and funny.
