Please Donate to ASPCA This Winter!

You may think that this organization has enough money, but hundreds of animals will have to be put down. You can help by donating. Watch their commercial to learn more. (I couldn't find it off the internet, so I recorded it off the TV. My little sister Teagan interrupted me, LOL.)

Sharks: a Misunderstood Mystery

Brinley here. Today our topic is on sharks. Many people think sharks are the monsters that are the cause of the sudden disappearances of surfers. They think that sharks purposefully eat people.Well, they are wrong.

Okay, so its true that people are killed by sharks, but its only because the sharks think that they are seals. Okay, this may seem confusing, but just look at the bottom of this surfboard.

It reminds me of a seal. And lets keep in mind that sharks don't have great seeing, they see you from below, it may be dark, and some surfboards may be the color of prey. "...humans are not actually on the great white's menu," says National Geographic. In fact, people kill more sharks each year than sharks kill people.

Introduction: Sharks

Brinley here! Okay guys, I know what you're thinking. Why did I pick sharks? I love big cats! Big cats are my favorite animals ever in the whole world. Well, I chose to do a whole section on sharks because I fell like sharks are very misunderstood and abused. So at least once a week, I will be writing a little something about sharks. Be sure to put your comments below! Thanks!

What Happens to Litter?

Hi! Brinley here. Today I will be telling you about what happens to litter.

Well, usually litter just sits around. Overtime, this can harm the environment. If the litter does get picked up, it goes to a dump. It is put in a pile of garbage that looks nasty and harms the ecosystem. What we really need to do? Stop littering in the first place.

It is harmful to others when you throw your garbage out the window. Its harmful to the plants and animals, as well as the environment. The earth is not a trash can or a recycling bin. We can help stop littering by spreading the word and recycling. Hope this helped!

Where to put Cans, Paper, and Plastic

Hi guys! Brinley here. Today we will be talking about recycling. I know, I know, we've all heard about it. But hey, its helps make a difference!

What should you recycle?
You should recycle all discarded plastic, aluminum, cans, paper, and cardboard. This helps reduce trash.

How does recycling help make a difference?
When you throw trash away, it is taken to dumps and just stacked up. It looks nasty and is bad for the environment, not to mention its wasting our resources. When you recycle, your discarded paper, plastic, etc. goes to special places where the items are reused.

How can I spread the word?
You can always talk to a teacher about doing a class presentation. You could make your own blog or Prezi. You could make fliers to hang around your community. You could simply tell everyone about recycling. Remember, recycling helps make a difference!
