did a service project for an animal shelter, similar to the one the first graders did earlier this year. Towels, food, and toys were donated to help. One of the adults organizing this project happened to be my friend’s mom. She took me and my friend to the shelter to drop off the school’s donations. I remember walking through the front doors and seeing all those homeless animals.

into a zoo animals actual life, and they aren’t exactly concerned with the quality of care they are receiving. Is a few minutes of temporary entertainment really worth risking an animal’s life? Traditional zoos in America should no longer exist because of the poor quality of life they experience versus in wildlife, the little to no education they provide, and how they are not worth the damage they truly cause to animals.

People living in sedentary villages in the Neolithic experienced worsened health and mortality. Sedentary life brought with it sanitation problems like garbage and human waste accumulate, which contributed to disease. The close association between humans and animals was also key to the transmission of many infectious diseases. Higher mortality rates were offset by increased fertility.

I have always found the ocean to be a very intriguing part of the Earth. There are infinitely many discoveries that have yet to be made about it. My fascination with the ocean sparked the idea to do my class paper on hurricanes and what they are along with their effects.
