Homework 1:Download the WASSEEM Worksheet (Attached below). Notice the worksheet asks you to identify why each resource is important AND how humans impact each of them. These are critical life resources that are essential to life on earth. Not just humans, but all living things.For this assignment, don t give obvious answers like humans will die without water , or if we don t have oxygen, we can t breathe .
