Greenhouse Effect Response Class Menu Project

I read an article on the greenhouse effect and learned many things. For instance, the greenhouse affect is a complex process by which heat energy from the Sun is trapped in the Earth's atmosphere. Certain gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, cause the greenhouse effect. These gasses are a result of human customs. An example of human customs which produce carbon dioxide is driving to work, school, ect. Automobiles produce gasses which are released into the atmosphere. Along with automobiles, most factories which produce goods also release gasses into the atmosphere. Any gas releases rise the temperature. A rising temperature can have a great affect on the many ecosystems of the world such as marine ecosystems, rainforests, the arctic, desserts, plains, ect. The greenhouse effect is a great contributer to global warming. Global warming is a very dangerous change the earth is undergoing currently and it needs to be stopped. If we all reduce the amount of gas we release in the atmosphere by doing simple things such as carpooling, we could greatly reduce the impact of the greenhouse effect.

Bullies Pick on Unpopluar Kids, Studies Find

This article is by Jeanna Bryner. This article is about how children bully, whom they bully, and what gender their victims are. Children are more likely to pick on the unpopular kids because they will have a less likely chance of being defended. Children actually usually bully because they are unhappy with themselves. When targeting the elementary schools studies found how the children usually bully their own gender and children outside their group because they don't want to have the risk of having their own group defend someone else. Bullying has always existed throughout my life span and I'm not really sure when it first started but I know it happens. Bullying happens all over the world in one way or another. personally, bullying is a big deal. Why would someone want to hurt another child. I know why they do the bullying but how can that make a person fell better? I just don't understand.

Bullies.

math blog

Math is all round the world, weather we like it or not. Math is a one of the main ingredients to everything. Sadly math is a main ingredient to a terrible disaster. This terrible disaster is around in different parts of the world. however, I'd like to focus on one part of the world. This issue is about innocent children who are given guns and expect to kill. This topic has a label and it is called child soldiers in Africa. There is a lot of information i could get into right now about this topic. However , I'm gonna put the spotlight on the math about this topic. Math is all about resolving problems. U.N.I.C.E.F is trying to solve this problem by subtracting the amount of Child soldiers there is. The African government Kept adding children from all around Africa. What really needs to happen is for the African government should be cut out all the way. Lets try to solve this problem. (child+soldeirs)- African gov + new better gov. 2 = -childsoldiers. Well thats at least my opion on what should happen. In conclusion, if you want to help to extend your hand even if its out of reach.
