Cailin placed first in the county -wide competition with her project called "Water Pollution - Who Cares?" In her project, she examined the effects of a variety of pollutants on 12 different eco- systems over a seven-day period to find out what damage could be caused. Fifty per cent of the polluted water was then drained and replaced with fresh water. She then observed the changes in the eco -systems for another 21 -days to see if there was any recovery of the water organisms. However, the results were very different than Cailin expected. She said only one of the 12 different eco -systems recovered from the pollution while the rest of the water organisms had died or . were decomposing. The eco -systems were contained in 12 pickled jars filled with a variety of water life used for the experiment including pond snails, water mites, midge fly larvae and algae. Cailin said she received the idea for the project last October while studying the in- terdependance of organisms and their en- vironments in her Science class. The Canada -wide Science Fair will be Science Fair held in Mississauga from May 10 to 17. This is the first time Cailin has advanced to the national science fair level, although she has won twice at the county level science fair.
