Mold in Sandy Bay First Nations Homes
Challenge:Environment
Category:Intermediate
Region:Manitoba First Nations
City:Marius, MB
School:Isaac Beaulieu Memorial School
Abstract:The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the possible causes of mold growth in my community's houses. Most of the mold reported found in Sandy Bay First Nation, poses a great deal of health hazards, such as chronic respiratory diseases and other health conditions. We designed an investigation to answer some questions that arose from our observations to determine the sources underlining this infestation.
