This measure would directly benefit young people. As there is a focus on engaging groups underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics training, there could be disproportionate benefits for girls, Indigenous young people, persons with disabilities, and those living in rural, remote, and northern communities. 1, record 1, English, - Coding%20Skills%20for%20Kids

Cette mesure profiterait directement aux jeunes.

Biosparging is an in-situ remediation technology that uses indigenous microorganisms to biodegrade organic constituents in the saturated zone. In biosparging, air(or oxygen) and nutrients(if needed) are injected into the saturated zone to increase the biological activity of the indigenous microorganisms. Biosparging can be used to reduce concentrations of petroleum constituents that are dissolved in groundwater, adsorbed to soil below the water table, and within the capillary fringe. 1, record 5, English, - biosparging

Bioventing is an in situ remediation technology that uses indigenous microorganisms to biodegrade organic constituents adsorbed to soils in the unsaturated zone. Soils in the capillary fringe and the saturated zone are not affected. In bioventing, the activity of the indigenous bacteria is enhanced by inducing air(or oxygen) flow into the unsaturated zone(using extraction or injection wells) and, if necessary, by adding nutrients. 3, record 6, English, - bioventing
