Throught this project i discovered that garlic mutard is a very pesky plant and can take over acres and acres of land.  My project was really easy but putting it together was harder.  The project didnt really affect my family or life because we dont have garlic mustard in our backyard or anything.  Living green doesn't really impact me because i already do things that are green like changed light bulbs and recycle.

PSA

The three blogs I liked the best would have been Halie's, Emma's, and Lauren's.  They were all very informative public service announcements and they all knew what they were talking about.They all even seemed like they really liked their topic and wanted to do a good job on them.  Some of the worse PSA's would have been Ben's and River's.  They could have looked over them better and didn't seem that they studied a lot about the topics.  They needed to be more informative and explain what they did to the audience.

Blog Reflection

What i discovered over doing this project was how bad invasive species are.  Also I learned how they can take over lots of land and be pests to whoever s land they are on.  They also affect the wildlife because if they make certain plants go away that other animals would eat then the animals will starve.  My book didn't really relate to my topic because my book was about fishing trips and my topic was invasive species.  My project was rather easy and the only thing that got in my way was me being lazy and not going outside.  The project did not really change me or my family because there wasn't any garlic mustard in my back yard or around my house.  I don't think about "living green" but i do turn off lights and get efficient light bulbs and recycling.

Video Blog

I think that the Jews have fear of being killed because they think that all of the Palestinian people want to kill them and they also think that all of that land should be just theirs.  They also are mad because they don't want their land taken away from them.  I think the Palestinian people think that all of the land should be theirs and that the Jews should leave.  They also probably feel bad because the Jews think that they are all terrorists and want to blow people up.  I think the kids think about the opposite side and how bad they are and that they are wrong and they are also doing bad things.  Their childhood would be more stressful than mine because I don't always have to think about fighting and being worried I am going to get killed.

Riddles

1. Roosters dont lay eggs.  2. They were in an airplane cabin and the airplane crashed and it started the fire all around them.  3. Tom.  4. Take the grain over, then the chicken, then take the grain back, then take the fox over, then take the chicken back, then the grain over again, and then the chicken over.  5. Craig was a hurricane.

Going Green Video

Like the video said I could turn off unused appliances, ride my bike places instead of having my parents drive, and install energy efficient light bulbs which I already have installed.  I think that it was a good video even though high school students made it and it was very good quality.  I think that I could do something like this with the knowledge that Mr. Brester has taught us throughout all of his classes and if I had a little time to make it and get all the videos to make it.

Conservation

We conserve energy by turning off lights and electronics when they are not in use.  We also use different light bulbs that last longer and are dim when you turn them on at first but then get brighter in time.  Also we don't turn on the heat or the air until we really need it and try and hold off turning them on for as long as we can.  Some of the benefits are that we save money by saving energy so that we can use that extra money for things that need it more.
