I am a Scientist studying the world's largest underground aquifer called the Ogallala Aquifer, located in parts of Wyoming, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. I'm here to find out if the water it brings in from snowmelt, and rainfall is increasing or decreasing in size and amount because of polution, and to see what we can do to decrease or end the polution. This place reveals little things about Earth's waters like how contaminated it is and how we need to change our ways or the water for drinking will be contaminated and we'll get sick. We need to change our ways or the water that we will need won't be here to supply us.

Good job Merrillye!! I completely agree with you on the pollution issue in the water. The Ogallala Aquifer could help us determine the amount of pollution in Earth's rain and snow. It could also help us find ways to stop pollution, or at least help to decrease it.
My travel spot was the Roaring Forties. It's an area of ocean, where as your area was a region in North America. Both of our areas do have an important significance. My place's significance was using the force of the wind and waves as an alternative energy source, where as yours was a way to find pollution in the precipitation. Even though our areas were very different, they still have a huge role in our planet today.
