California's Garden Water Fountain Analysis and Results
California's Garden Water Fountain Analysis and Results The first implementation of a sugary drinks tax in the US came in February 2014, when it was passed by the city of Berkley, California. By making soda more expensive, it’s assumed that parents will make better choices for what their children drink, like water as an example. The aim of the research was to evaluate the state of community drinking water fountains and figure out if there is a distinction in access to fresh, operating drinking fountains based on racial or economic components. Facts on the city’s drinking water fountains were pulled together using a GPS created exclusively for the research. The US Census Community Study database was chosen to amass information relating to race and economic status in these locations.
The 2 data sets were compared to identify what class distinctions, if any, there were in access to running water fountains. The evaluation was able to establish the demographics of areas with water fountains, also noting whether the shape of the fountains was greater or inferior in lower class neighborhoods. The cleanliness of many fountains was found poor, even if most were working.
The Source of Modern Wall Fountains
The Source of Modern Wall Fountains The translation of hundreds of classical Greek texts into Latin was commissioned by the scholarly Pope Nicholas V who led the Church in Rome from 1397 until 1455.

Reconstruction of the Acqua Vergine, a ruined Roman aqueduct which had carried fresh drinking water into the city from eight miles away, began in 1453 at the behest of the Pope. A mostra, a monumental dedicatory fountain constructed by ancient Romans to mark the point of arrival of an aqueduct, was a tradition which was restored by Nicholas V. At the bidding of the Pope, architect Leon Battista Alberti began the construction of a wall fountain in the place where we now find the Trevi Fountain. The aqueduct he had refurbished included modifications and extensions which eventually enabled it to supply water to the Trevi Fountain as well as the famed baroque fountains in the Piazza del Popolo and the Piazza Navona.
