Good Job!

Polar Bear on treadmill

Although we would never want this to happen to a real polar bear, it's really funny!

Another Chance for Another World!

I know I haven't been posting that much. But that doesn't mean I'm not doing anything to help the environment. This week, I'm going to the Interior Department to deliver a bunch of petitions.

This petition is about the rules Bush created and how they are harmful to animals such as polar bears. We all know Obama's a great president, and that he's going to bring change to America, but we still need to remind him about what we, as the public want. So, hopefully, this petition will persuade Obama to destroy these rules and make it so lives for animals are a little bit better.

Here's the link to the petition so you can sign.

And here's the link to information about the rules were trying to get rid of.

Don't Slip!

This polar bear obviously needs reading glasses. 

Polar Bears Making a Word for Themselves

Mark Jenkins, the street artist has been working with Greenpeace lately. Mark Jenkins wraps clear packing tape around people or objects, to make them sturdier he stuffs them. Mark Jenkins then puts clothes on the shape

and puts them in the street. With Greenpeace he's made polar bears as homeless bears. These bears bring notification to the polar bear's situation.

T.A Barron

I was nominated for a prize called the Gloria Barron Prize a while ago because of the work I did with the polar bears. I answered questions, my teacher wrote a letter, and my friends mom wrote a letter. That is what I had to do in order to be considered for this prize. All those papers went through a panel of judges. Many kids are nominated for this prize, but only ten are chosen winners. Each winner receives a press release and $2500 to spend on education or further activism. I WAS ONE OF THE WINNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But you know what's even cooler? It wasn't me who won, it was you. You and everyone else who is trying to make an environmental difference in the world. The man who gives this award is T.A Barron. He named this prize after his mother. T.A Barron also happens to be a writer. His books are AMAZING! I highly recommend the The Lost Years of Merlin series. They are wonderful books!! His all new series continues The Lost Years of Merlin. Its called Merlin's Dragon. So last week I went to the Aladdin's Lamp Bookstore and attended a T.A Barron's book signing! T.A Barron is really nice. It was so awesome to meet him in person! Heres the link to T.A Barrons website! http://www.tabarron.com/

Evil Kleenex

Hope everyone had a great summer! Here's a really awesome video about Kleenex and how they cut down trees from the Virgin Forest. They say that those trees make their tissues really soft. But, if you compare Kleenex to any other brand of tissues they are exactly the same. So try to avoid buying Kleenex!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d08X7GJLGn8
