Bullying involves aggressive behavior that demonstrates power over others through mental, verbal, or physical abuse and can lead to depression, anxiety, sadness, sleep and eating changes, decreased academic performance, health complaints, loss of interest, and even suicide. To prevent bullying, people should communicate openly, encourage children to engage in activities they enjoy, be positive role models, celebrate individual uniqueness, treat others with compassion and respect, and support each other through small kind acts instead of putting each other down.Trabajo Practico Evaluativo N属2marciabaracco333

This document discusses a project by The Nature Conservancy to study the ecosystem services provided by oyster aquaculture in Chesapeake Bay. The goals are to scientifically measure the water quality benefits of oyster aquaculture through partnerships with research institutions and aquaculture operations. Methods include using sensors and sediment cores to analyze changes in water quality parameters, biodiversity, and habitat around aquaculture sites. Results will be shared through reports, videos, and outreach to support further expansion of the oyster aquaculture industry as a large-scale restoration strategy.Laurie Sorabella's Oyster Restoration Workshop Presentation

The document discusses restoration efforts of the Lynnhaven River and Watershed in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The watershed covers 64 square miles and houses 225,000 people. Efforts focused on reducing pollutants like bacteria, nutrients, sediments and toxins entering the river, and restoring vital habitats for oyster reefs, wetlands, and underwater grasses. Over 20 years, numerous partners collaborated on projects like creating oyster castles and sanctuaries, conducting citizen science to monitor spat settlement, and evaluating alternative oyster reef substrates. Through this synergy among many groups, a once polluted river is being restored to health.Suzanne Bricker's Oyster Restoration Workshop Presentation

This document summarizes research on using oysters as a best management practice (BMP) to improve water quality in Chesapeake Bay. It discusses how modeling and sampling of oyster aquaculture sites have helped develop nutrient removal estimates for oysters. The Chesapeake Bay Partnership's Oyster BMP Expert Panel now recommends nutrient removal credits for harvested oyster tissue from private aquaculture. This allows aquaculture harvest to be counted as a BMP in water quality plans. Models can also estimate ecosystem services from expanded aquaculture or restored oyster reefs to help set restoration goals.Andrew Button's Oyster Restoration Workshop Presentation

Climate change is primarily caused by human activities like greenhouse gas emissions. The global surface temperature has increased about 1 degree Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels and climate models show this warming can only be explained when including human factors like greenhouse gases. Most of the observed warming is due to human activities according to the IPCC. Continued greenhouse gas emissions will lead to greater warming, raising risks like sea level rise which is accelerating and will inundate coastal areas. Drastic reductions in emissions are needed to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius.Dale Morris Blue Planet Forum Presentation

This document summarizes a presentation by Dale Morris on resilience strategies for coastal areas vulnerable to sea level rise and extreme weather. Some key points:
- Nearly half the world's population lives in coastal areas that are increasingly at risk.
- Extreme weather events are causing more damage as populations and wealth in coastal areas grow. Recent hurricanes and floods have resulted in hundreds of billions in losses.
- The Netherlands addresses its flood risk through extensive planning, multi-purpose projects, and "living with water" strategies like beach and dune nourishment, sea dikes, water squares, and coastal marsh restoration.
- Hampton Roads could benefit from a regional resilience plan, a lead state agency, and funding to implement projects thatBeth McGee Blue Planet Forum Presentation

Climate change is having ecological effects on the Chesapeake Bay. Increased storms and flooding from climate change leads to higher loads of pollutants entering the Bay. Rising temperatures stress species and could eliminate some. Species' ranges are also shifting. Warmer water holds less oxygen. Sea levels have risen over the last 30-40 years more than three times the global average, flooding coastal areas. Multiple pollution reduction efforts called for in Virginia's cleanup plan would help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, flooding, and increase resiliency while filtering pollutants.Dan Burger Blue Planet Forum Presentation
