I am a Grade 8 student at Bert Bowes Junior Secondary School in Fort St. John, BC. I have made it to the Northern BC Regional Science Fair four times and this will be my second CWSF. I have won the BC Hydro Power Smart award, Enviro Expo award, and the Federation of B.C Naturalists Award. Last year at the Canada wide science fair I won a bronze medal. I enjoy all outdoor activities such as four-wheeling, snowmobiling, boating, hunting and fishing. In 2008, I traveled to Africa on a hunting safari which was an amazing experience. Playing fastball is a sport I enjoy and I have gone to provincials twice. |

This project will determine if carbon dioxide (CO2) will have a larger impact on freshwater or saltwater. A close watch was kept on the pH levels of the water. Temperature variations and decreased salinity will be tested. I determined that freshwater at cold temperatures absorbs the most CO2. |
