Global Warming

By Emma C.

Global Warming is the burning of the ozone. The ozone protects us from the sun’s extreme temperatures. If we weaken the ozone, we will have to put on stronger sunscreen and put it on more often. When we weaken the ozone, it means we produce more air pollution such as smoke. The biggest culprit in the burning is carbon dioxide. Trees produce oxygen and they breathe in carbon dioxide. We inhale oxygen and they exhale carbon dioxide. So when we burn or cut down trees, we limit our oxygen and make the carbon dioxide numbers grow bigger.

Now Global Warming is affecting the polar bears and other creatures in Arctic. Soon there will be no Arctic animals. Now the polar bears have to swim for miles until they find an iceberg or an island. You might ask, “Why don’t they just stay where they instead of moving to another iceberg?” Since the sun is getting hotter, the ice starts to melt. And when the icebergs start to melt, there won’t be enough ice for the polar bears to live on so they will be forced to swim. For all you animal lovers, and everybody else, do you really want to force polar animals into extinction?

We can help by walking more, not using harmful chemicals, and telling an adult if you see someone doing something that can harm our Earth. The Arctic animals will thank you.

Questions You Might Ask the President of the U.S.A.

By Gracie F.

Have you ever wondered what the President’s job is like? What his personal life is like? Maybe how many Secret Service agents he has? If yes, you’re not alone. Every day, someone in the U.S. wonders ‘Who is this man who’s leading our country?’ Well, if you ever try to communicate with him, in any way, then here are some questions you might ask.

What’s the secret to becoming president?

 

When was the last time you drove by yourself?

 

Why did you want to become president?

 

Which other president inspired you most?

 

Do you ever worry about being assassinated?

 

How much stress are you usually under?

 

Did you know that the president reads 10 letters a day, but receives many more? Two months ago, Ms. Turi’s class was lucky enough to write a letter to the president and get a reply! The president said “You are the new generation” and “You determine the future.” He was right. You have to do good things for this Earth, help the economy, and be kind to the world.
