The history of jurong lake park:Jurong Lake (Chinese: 裕廊湖 ; Malay: Tasik Jurong ; Tamil: ஜூரோங் ஏரி) is a 70ha freshwater lake and reservoir located in the western region of Singapore formed with the damming of Sungei Jurong further downstream. The lake serves as a reservoir contributing to the water supply of the country. It lies next to the Lakeside MRT Station, which derived its name from this geographical feature. The lake is surrounded by parkland, which serves as a recreational ground for nearby residents in Jurong East and Jurong West New Towns. Group Reflection:After visiting the lake i think all of use should do a part to save the environment as the park is getting dirtier and dirtier we all should clean up the park and do our part by not littering or throwing things that does not belong there .
Residents will go to jurong lake park to take a stroll or to jog or exercise.There is a fitness corner there where people could do their exercise and the trees would provide shade and fresh hair,thus residents would go there.Also,it is very windy at the park.The park is also important to the world.There are many plants there which give much oxygen and take in a lot of carbon dioxide.This could prevent global warming.The natural environment provide homes for the plants and animals with everything they need such as shelter,food and protection.If their habitat was destroyed,they would have no more food,shelter or protection leaving them invulnerable for predators or hunters.The animals and plants are important as some animals provide us food,medicine,etc.Plants provide us with oxygen which is very important to us with the lack of oxygen we would die.Global warming will occur and worsen over the time as plants are not there to play their important part-Providing oxygen.there will be lesser plants and animals,we will have lesser living things to observe,some of the human activities on the ecosystem would destroy the habitat and produce pollutants,harm us and lead to extinction of some organism.Some of the human activities are deforestation,over-fishing/over-hunting and pollution.The park visitors can reduce pollution by throwing rubbish into rubbish bins,buy products made from recycled materials,like recycled paper,and recycled materials such as plastic and glass,do not eat endangered animals such as sharks or purchase products that are made out of endangered animals such as horns of rhinoceros as their horns are like fingernails of human and have no medical value as it was stated to be and do not harm or kill any organism found in the park
The park is important to the residents as they can exercise in the park and the park has more oxygen there and it is a place to relax too.There are homes of animals there and we cannot destroy their home just because we need the land.The park visitors can throw lesser litter and be more considerate
Part C Litters There are litters all over the park as park users just throw their litters on the grass and litters can also be found on the surface of the water.Litters might be just small things on the ground,but it ca n kill small animals by trapping them and too much rubbish in the water might cause water pollution and litter might let tourist have a bad impression of singapore when they arrive at the lake. Grease Grease is another obvious factor in the lake.There are grease all over the lake , it might be caused bby the constructions nearby.The park should have more rubbish bins and the park should have more cleaners to clean up the place
