World Water Day was held on March 22, 2022. The goal of World Water Day is to promote the responsible use of water and access to safe water for everyone. Water holds immense value. Every day, people use water in different ways including drinking, agriculture, industry, recreation, hygiene, sanitation, and health care.

The San Francisco Bay Microplastics Project was designed to provide critical data on sources and pathways of microplastics in the Bay Area, and generate scientifically supported, regional recommendations for solutions to plastic pollution. Read more about this research here.  

In celebration of World Water Day, Mrs. Nancy Bullard shows us an amazing property of water, refraction! Check out our Instagram page for the whole video. Try this experiment at home or in your classroom! 

Join us for the month of March as we learn about women, past and present, who have made an impact in STEM! Today we learn about Chien-Shiung Wu. Chien-Shiung Wu was a Chinese American physicist. In 1956, she was asked to devise an experiment to prove a theory that the law of conservation of parity did not hold true during beta decay. Wu's experiments, which utilized radioactive cobalt at near absolute zero temperatures, proved that identical nuclear particles do not always act alike. Later in life, Chien-Shiung Wu was the first woman to serve as president of the American Physical Society. Learn more about Chien-Shiung Wu here.
