We all know pollination as something that is vital to life on earth to have flowers coevolving for many years. We rely on pollination for 1/3 of our fruits. Think about it we are a part of nature and it is our job to make sure nothing wrong happens. We are part of the evolution of life and eventually all living things on the earth will die that’s why reproduction is so vital in continuing the world. Louie Schwartzberg describes pollination as a magical moment where animals and plants regenerate new life over and over. 

The video he shows is a beautiful and magical display of pollination. The continuing of plant life that is so unseen by the naked eye but is such a beautiful process. In our world today there are so many different processes that our so vital to sustainably on the earth. I believe this video for me was a huge eye opener on how beautiful our world is, and the many little things that we look over everyday.

In the movie //the bee movie,// it is an animated movie where the bees go on strike and do not pollinate. When this occurs all the flowers are dying out. Also no fruits or the foods listed above were produced. This process is one not be forgotten about.

Fun Facts:

Bees carry out 80% of pollination

Honeybees carry pollen on their legs and bodies

Here are food produced by pollination of bees

almonds, avocados, cucumbers, melons, blueberries, blackberries, apples, pears, cherries, peaches, squash, pumpkins, and strawberries.

Week 3: Jessi Arrington is doing something to help eliminate some clothing waste that the world is creating. Think about it things go out of style and clothes end up not fitting you anymore. Jessi only buys clothing that is from a second hand store of clothes handed down to her. By buying at second hand stores her money goes to a good cause and she creates her own style. In the world today every person goes through clothes for all seasons. Think about it the world has to sustain your clothing needs. But not only the creating of the clothing but the amount of waste you produce through clothes. Buying second hand clothes allows her to reduce the impact she has on the environment. We have been talking about sustainability and the impact people have on the environment, and this is one way that people can decrease their impact on the environment. People continuously associate their impact on the world through foods and plastic but think about your clothing, and how the world needs to sustain your clothing needs.

so think if you bought some clothing that is not new how much waste you can reduce by not always buying clothes that are new. media type="youtube" key="SYwvyjIDk80" width="425" height="350"Here is the ted talk Here are some of jessi different outfits that she was able to put together
