Do Your Part Some More
Hey what's up I am Great-K8 and I have two very important message for you: Do Your Part Some More and Go Green! Yesterday, at school, the lunch was soup and sandwiches. The soup was in Styrofoam bowls! Do you know how long it takes for Styrofoam to decompose in landfills? NEVER!!! It never decomposes. It just sits in a landfill forever. Imagine living forever. That's how long it will take for Styrofoam to decompose. Later that night, I went to this thing where you donate money, and then you get as much soup as you want and you get your own bowl that someone made. So the soup was served in Styrofoam bowls! The money went to some good cause, so I guess they needed something cheep, but still! Here's something that you can definitely do: if at your school some food is served on something Styrofoam, talk to your teacher about starting a petition to not have Styrofoam stuff anymore. Here is some more tips for Going Green starting with littler kids, then going to older kids (I'm not implying that older kids shouldn't do this and younger kids shouldn't try to do the other stuff): walk whenever possible; turn off the lights when you leave a room; turn off the water when you're brushing your teeth; if you bring a lunch to school, pack your food in reusable containers; take the bus to school or carpool with someone else or more people; make signs to put in front of trash cans asking people to think if the thing they're about to throw away can be recycled; and finally put on a hat or a sweater when you're cold instead of turning up the heat. Are there more ways to Go Green? Of course! So think of more ways to Go Green and do stuff to help the planet. Well that's all the time I have right now so bye and come back soon!

Wow K8. Your being really earth friendly. Very good job. And no way am I being sarcastic!!! Like I would lie about people doing good things for the Earth! and here's a going green tip you can write up: Okay, obviously, your reading this. And obviously, you're on a computer if not a cell phone. A lot of people have Macs. When you finish using it, don't just log out, turn off the computer/phone. It will save a lot of energy. Also after you finish listening to your iPod, don't just leave it there. Turn it off by pressing down the pause button. Friendly tip that has nothing to do with saving energy: On your iPod there is a little switch. It freezes your screen so when you have your iPod in your pocket and accidentally press a button you don't start playing music. Use it. Actually that does save energy because it keeps your iPod off so it saves your saved battery power and you don't have to use energy and charge it again.
Okay that was loooong. But please write it. (I think you know about copying and pasting)
