My Planner
The rainforests and oceans all over the world are getting destroyed and also there is way too much driving and pollution.
One of the ways oceans are getting polluted and destroyed is by people are throwing way too much waste in it. For example, people throw garbage and other stuff in the water like, pop cans, old dog toys, paper plates and lots of other things. Its bad to do that because then the water can not recycle all of that stuff and the animals that live in the oceans will eat that and maybe die. Also with all of the boating, oil sometimes leaks out of the boat and then the oil will roam around the water and fish and other water animals will die from it.
One way the rainforests are getting cut down is that some people want more room for houses, lumber, and more stores. But when people are cutting down all of the rainforests lots and lots of animals are loosing there home and food. And that isn’t fair to the animals and plants.
All over the world people are driving way too much. That is making too much pollution, so the air is really dirty but you just can’t see it. I think people should walk, ride bikes, run or do something else that doesn’t involve motors. That way the world would be much cleaner and a better place to live. Because this is the only world we have so we have to take care of it!

Liz,
I couldn't agree with you more! I'm so happy to hear that a young person like yourself is concerned about the ways in which we are polluting and ruining our world. You kids can make such a huge difference by encouraging others to change their ways. Within your own family you can urge everyone to recycle, reduce the amount of paper you use, turn off lights when not in use, switch from incandescent light bulbs to energy-saving florescent light bulbs, walk or bike somewhere nearby instead of driving, etc. As a grownup, maybe you will decide to buy a house that fits your family's needs, not an oversized monster house that requires extra wood to build and uses up so much fuel to heat and cool and light. You kids are the world's future leaders and custodians so by starting to change people's behavior now, maybe the world will be a cleaner place by the time you are a grown-up. Keep spreading the messsage!

Hi, Liz. Thanks for your comments. As a community leader for bicycling, I care too about reducing pollution. You might like to know about BikeEdina.org. You can see some pictures of kids biking in the winter!

Can you believe Liz, that when I was in college, I had to fight to set up a recycle center in our dorm? Now, it would be weird NOT to recycle. Why is the title to your posting, "My Planner"?
Let me know!
