WEEK 4 This week we talked about saving energy and sustainability. There are many ways to save energy and reduce your carbon footprint. For example, drive less, turn lights off when you are not in a room, open your windows instead of having the AC on, recycle, use cloth bags instead of plastic bags, bike places, use solar power or wind power instead of natural gasses. These are all great ways to help the environment. The website below has ideas for how to be sustainable all through out your home. [|ww[[http://www.futurefriendly.com|w.futurefriendly.com]]]

WEEK 3 = Creek Erosion is a big problem. When a creek's bank erodes, it eats away at the land little by little. When we were at Robbin's Park this week, we took a measurement for the width of the creek. We will be comparing it to the previous measurements to see if the creek has eroded. The linked website talks about the consequences of erosion and also gives some ways to help prevent it from happening. = []



WEEK 2

WEEK 1

When we watched the "Did You Know?" video in class, I was most intreagued with the fact that scietists are trying to create a computer with human brain capabilites. Yes, I think it is awsome that science/technology has come this far but could this be too far? If this smart of a computer is created, could we be the ones whose planet is taken over by scary robots instead of the people in the movies??

Attatched is an article/blog related to ethics in science. []
