I circled the boy in the right in the snowman cartoon because his position of thinking is that the jacket will keep the snowman cold and stop him from melting. Covering the snowman with a jacket will prevent him from melting and will allow him to last a little bit longer because the jacket will trap the air and heat going through so easily, which will stop the snowman from melting. The jacket will protect the snowman from the outside air. My predictions for the ice cubes are that, first the unwrapped one will melt faster comparing to all the others ice cubes that are wrapped in plastic, aluminum foil, newspaper and hand towel. The unwrapped one will melt faster because the air will be in direct contact with it giving energy to ice to melt.
After that I waited until the entire ice cube melted. This took about two hours or so. Now that the ice had all melted and absorbed into the paper towel I could see that the ice cube had either broke through the paper towel, absorbed fully into the paper towel or leaked though in some spots. When I was finished looking over what had happened, I wrote down the results and everything all of my observations.
The purpose for this project is to see which brand of bubblegum makes the biggest bubbles. My hypothesis was that if you chew different brands of bubble gums for the same time, then Hubba Bubba Gum will make the biggest bubble.
I really appreciate all of the work you're doing spreading awareness about climate change while doing your own part to combat it. In this day and age, our work to change the course of our currently unsustainable civilization is more important than ever. That's why we must be very careful when discussing the changing climate and the repercussions that spring from it. Most conversations about climate change focus on the major problems that are going to occur in the future as a result of current human practices. Yet, it is evident that these changes are wreaking havoc in the present world that we all inhabit. That is why the narrative on climate change must change. Not only is climate change real, but it is impacting the earth in devastating ways at this very moment. Climate change should be treated as the atrocity of today, not the possible problem of the future.

Waking up and looking outside, the snow is several inches deep covering the grass, the street, and the snow-banks are knee high. These are the perfect conditions, for one thing, snowboarding. A snowboarder knows the prime conditions to ride and will do anything to make sure they are on the mountain ready to go when those conditions arise. In preparation for snowboarding, you’ll need to consider the temperature, where you will be riding, and what type of gear is needed for the conditions.

As Earths average temperature increases every year, the discussion of climate change has become a significant topic in the scientific community. Human activities such as powering factories, running automobiles or something as simple as burning wood for heat, emit dangerous greenhouse gases. What makes these greenhouse gases so detrimental is that they absorb the heat radiating off of Earth and keep it in the lower atmosphere creating a “blanket” of warmth around the Earth’s surface. This causes a drastic increase in the Earths average temperature. Due to the rise in temperature, the polar caps have been melting faster than ever, this is dangerous not only because of the risk of floods and sea level increase but ocean water will become less saline and ecosystems will be destroyed, impacting humans just as much as marine life. In the article, Understand faulty thinking to tackle climate change by George Marshall, Marshall states that most people in our world today do not care about climate change because it will not affect them, “Which points to the real problem: climate change is exceptionally amorphous, … no deadlines, no geographic location, no single cause or solution.” (Marshall 2014). Because the author makes it clear that climate change is indeed a great plight, and fails to be acknowledged by people, it is a significant matter that should be discussed
Crake’s attempt to control the future of the world by destroying it, leaving his friend Jimmy to tend to the Crakes”. Crake invents the BlyssPluss pill which promises protection from “all known sexually transmitted diseases” …” would provide an unlimited supply of libido” … “and prolonged youth” (Atwood 294). When the BlyssPluss pill is dispersed and consumed it causes an airborne disease of epic proportion which wipes out the entire race of human beings, except for Jimmy and the Crakes, who survive in the air-locked dome called Paradice.
A normal day can turn into a day filled with icy cold snow and warm hot chocolate just by one call. One call that gives everyone around the school district a sigh of relief that they can curl up back in their comfy beds and sleep for an extra two or more hours. Some may wonder how one call makes everyone’s day so much better: it is because it is a call from the school saying there is no school today due to icy conditions. Upon hearing this one can be sure that their phone will be buzzing with ones friends asking what they are doing today, or maybe one snoozes through all the texts and continues to curl up in one’s warm blankets, with dogs heating ones feet. No matter what one chooses to do there always seems to be a trend as one gets older. This trend is that in the grades kindergarten through fifth grade, children love snow days to stay outside and play; then in grades sixth through ninth, children love snow days to stay inside and watch movies; finally children tenth through twelfth grade, children love snow days to again go outside and play.
Murder, hunting accident, spiritual ritual,was he killed on the run, or murdered by an acquaintance, all of these are possible results of Ӧtzi the ice man’s death. No one knows the actual reason Ötzi the iceman died, and many intelligent people and people that shirk the responsibility of doing the proper research and background information about the prehistoric mummy and his life. The reason I believe Ӧtzi was killed is based on the well produced, prodigious documentary, made by BBC News. He wasn’t killed on spot, he fought someone and managed to escape the hands of his enemy and in efforts to escape he was shot but stifled the pain and continued on. Forlorned and disgruntled, still stifling the pain, he couldn’t proceed on any longer. That’s when Ötzi took his last breath.
I was old, but not deaf. I easily discerned the familiar jibes as I made my way through the restaurant. “That’s Congresswoman Underhill. Boy, is she over the hill.” “Yeah, and she’ll be under it pretty soon.” I didn’t respond, partly because I was late for my party. Also, I didn’t want to embarrass the speakers, who might once have been my constituents. I loved that they still recognized me. I even agreed with the sentiment, which was truer than they realized.
I believe that every person should try snow skiing at least once. Snow skiing is a great activity with so many benefits, plus its really really fun! People of all ages can try it with the youngest person recorded being one year old. For me, skiing is the best sport out there and when I’m skiing it feels like I’m on another planet because everything is white from being covered with snow. Some days there is so much snow you can't even see in front of you. Those are the best days. It's such a great experience and I'll give you the motivators that keep me looking at the mountain peaks in July.
“Your assignment is to write a persuasive essay and present it to the class in a week. You will be graded based on how convincing it is. Today we will be choosing topics,” announced Mr. Bowerbank, my 7th grade English teacher and ruler of classroom 110. My class simultaneously groaned at the prospect of work. I simply lifted my head with intrigue as it was already May and about time we had our first essay. He then proceeded to give examples of topics we could choose and gave us some time to think before we had to tell him our topic. My classmates were already rushing to tell the teacher their idea lest someone else steal it. That meant the usual abortion, death penalty, or drug use topics were out. I really couldn't think of anything and the teacher was slowly making his way through the remaining students like an executioner beheading criminals in a line. I have always thought that he would make a marvelous supervillain if he had a curly mustache, a tophat, and a cape. Eventually my name was called. I slowly dragged myself over to his desk. Even sitting down, he still seemed to tower over me. “What is your topic Cindy?” As usual in such desperate times, my mind turned to food. “Waffles are better than pancakes.” I figured that a waffle was just a differently shaped pancake with a nicer texture. “Hmm. Excellent topic. I look forward to your essay!” I survived to live yet another day.
Did you know that the United States is the second largest contributor of CO2, and the less concerned about it? Climate change has been a problem for decades, but just recently we start to see how big of a problem climate change is, and can be. Climate change is one of the biggest problems that we are facing right now, even if keep trying to act like is nothing. Everybody, the people, the government, and big companies are a big contributor of this phenomenon. The more we keep denying its effects, the more we are going to regret it later, and going to wish that we could go back and try to fix the issue. You going to know one day, and its going to be late. Climate change should be the U.S government main focus this decade and the ones to come. Climate change can affect a country in every way economically, destroyed …., cause a lot of deaths.
Everyone wants approval, whether it's from peers to family. We want to be accepted, to be praised. However, there is always a person not happy with you. Trying to please everyone is impossible. Trying to accommodate everyone is a route to failure. There will always be that one person going against you.
