Dear Jane,
The Mekong River is found in the southeastern part of Asia. I am visiting this river in order to observe the progress of the depletion or the growth of this river over time, and the environment around it. Ranging from the South China Sea to the Plateau of Tibet, it is 313,000 miles long. This river is used for food, water, transportation, and resources for their crops. The river is wide and can flow slowly in some areas of the river. Many different tributaries flow into this river making it even larger.Even though the water isn't the cleanest there are a variety of life, such as fish. There are over 700 species of fish located in the water. There are many fresh water fish providing a variety of different food selections for the surrounding towns and traveling animals.

I believed your blog was very interesting and now i think i am ready to talk about it to the class. Both of are water areas helped out crops but mine did not haave a lot of animals in it.
Both of are water areas are of great importance to the area around them.Both of are areas provide water for farmers and ranchers. My area is losing its water so there are organizations to try to help this because it is so important.
Great Job! =]
The Mekong River seems very important to people living around it. It provides food, water, and resouces for crops. Without the Mekong River, its occupants would probably have to find new resources.
Our two projects are very much alike. The Ogallala Aquifer also serves as a water source for humans, and their crops. The Ogallala resides in the Great Plains, where we live, so it is of great importance to us.
