Enviro poem: Natures Song

The river was a peaceful place
where all  fish sped to race
and at the end of this river was a waterfall,
so when the river fell, it was almost like a call
for all the birds to come bathe and sing
to make this beautiful ring
into a bright and beautiful oasis!

Now listen to the wind,
make music with fire as it kindles,
at that to the river,
at the same time they begin to deliver
a beautiful melody called Natures Song!
oh how the song lasts oh so very long!

But now the earth has been molded and beat
the trees are now silent with defeat.
The now dingy rivers have lost their past shine,
don't you wish you could go back in time?
The rainforests have dwindled from immeasurable to measurable.
Can anyone say they find this quite pleasurable?
To watch our Mother Nature sing
with utmost felicity?

But once we disturb it,
theirs no coming back to it.
we can only mimic
what Nature once made rhythmic.

But once man is gone,
life will still go one
and Nature will renew her song.

chaos theory

This man named Edward Lorenz came up with a theory of why not tell the weather for the future? not like tomorrow the future, but like next month! But while he was doing his studies, he found out that this was near to impossible. There is too many things that can change the weather, thus the butterfly effect. Not only that, but people do too many things to the environment to cause an inbalance in the weather/environment so their is no way to have an exact weather reading. 

Soil conservation

for farmers, yes, i do think that we are doing enough for THEIR soil. but for all local communities i dont think we are doing enough for our soil. California native soil does not have as much nutrients in the soil for plants and trees to survive, and if we want our plants to thrive, then we need to do something about it.

My Favorite

My favorite activity in environmental is the gardening/ beautification of the school. i like learning about things that effect the environment, how certain lack of nutrients can change how a plant grows. i  also like making the school a better place to be in, and possibly less dreary. It was pretty nice to watch our plants grow, and how certain actions can increase germination in the seeds. My least favorite thing in the class, are the computer work. Im not good with technology, so all the computer work we have to do kinda makes me feel stupid. i think i would change the quizes from the computer to in class. this way i could at least get credit for them....
