The earth is really, really screwed up. We are polluting it and destroying ourselves, and doing it on purpose. Earth day was 2 weeks ago, and on that day, we accepted that fact, and had a huge, worldwide, “Earthcast” to discuss ideas for the earth to be a greener, better place. The Earthcast was April 22^nd, and lasted all of the day; almost 24 hours. Kids and adults from schools all around the world participated, and there was a great turnout.

Another part to our earth unit in science class was a film festival. In this we watched three different films, all having to do with the earth, marketing, and how screwed we all are. The first video was called “the story of stuff”, and showed us the life cycle of the stuff we use. The second video was on marketing techniques, and the shopping culture of America. The third video was on how we disposed of trash after we used it. These films all tied together a unit which came with one conclusion: we are destroying the earth.
