bio bottle

Cody is going to have the control in the experiment. In our bottles we are going to have soil, water, and a few chosen worms. We may put a fish in or not but we haven't decided yet. In my bottle though I am putting in pieces of a broken keyboard. We will see what the effect is on the biobottles.

Hurricanes-These are tropical storms that have a low pressure center. They cause high winds and precipitation. Their strength is increased over warmer waters. With global climate change the water is getting warmer and therefore the hurricanes are becoming more powerful than they used to be.

Tornados-These are violent wind vortexes that are often seen with debris around them. They are caused by mesoclones. These are created by low pressure and wind rising at the same time. The tornados have been seen on every continent except anarctica but mostly occur in the U.S. and mostly in tornado alley in the U.S.

Project Progress

We haven't gotten very far yet with our project. We're still thinking of ways to execute our plan. We know that we want to get more people recycling electronics but we dont know how to explain why. We are brain storming how to get more people aware of why they should recycle electronics and how to recycle them.

green wish 2

My second green wish is to have the students and teachers in the building to bring all dead batteries to school so we can get them together for recycling.

With the batteries being recycled the acid does not get disposed of into water or ground. The metals being used in it can be recycled and used in other batteries or objects.

Equinox

The equinox happens twice a year. This means everyone on the planet gets exactly 12 hours of daytime and 12 hours of night time. This happens in spring and in fall. The earths tilt during the equinox is neglegable because the equator is directly facing the sun.

People picked up cigarrette butts to help protect the environment. Doing so removed the toxins from the environment. This made it safer for wild life to live without eating or consuming the toxic butts. They removed over 40 pounds of cigarette butts. This means the number 1 form of litter in the U.S. was removed from this comunity.

Another group of students helped stop graffitti. They did this by identifying the areas where it happens and educating the people there. They made an interactive game and brochure that helped their cause and helped decrease the amount of graffiti in the community. The students also educated other students why they shouldn't tag and it also helped reduce the amount of grafitit in the community.

Green Wish

Everyone who lives in a one mile radius of the school should walk to school.
