Earth Day

by: Julia

Did you know that we do not take care of our Earth very well?  Every day one American throws away four pounds of garbage a day, and how much we throw away a year is over 1,600 pounds of garbage.  If you recycle one glass bottle, it can power your computer for 30 minutes.  If you recycle 2,000 pounds of paper you could save 17 trees.  When you recycle one ton of paper you could save 6 months of energy for your home.  We should all care about our Earth so help your Earth.

Fast Lane

A company names Volkswagen made a fast red slide in 2010 in a subway in Amsterdam.  Instead of taking the stairs, people had the choice to slide down the "fast lane."  It happened so people could have fun and get home faster and also to speed up life.
