    Water
    We are going to fill about 2920 bottles of water. This will give us each two bottles of water each day to drink. We are going to bring an extra 1460 bottles of water for other uses besides drinking such as putting out fires and cleaning ourselves.
    We are going to purify air with active carbon filters. We will sell the dirt to farmers, and we will make many deep holes to put our wastes into. We will keep some extra dirt to cover our wastes.

    1.) What were the effects of the National Relations Act of 1935 on the people?
    Some of the effects on people dealed with the right to unionize. The National Relations Act of 1935 gave employees the right to form, join, or help labor organizations. This also allowed employees to come together as a union. Which means they were allowed to argue as group towards their employers.

    2.) What were the effects of the National Relations Act of 1935 on the economy?
    Many effects on the economy also occured throughout the National Relations Act of 1935. Some of them include that a great amount of strikes occured across the country. Violent arguments took place between the employees trying to form the unions and the police. The economy was looked at very harmfully, because of all the strikes occuring throughout the country over the many debates dealing with the employees' jobs.
