Did you switch off the light on Saturday evening?

Did you switch off the light on Saturday, March 29, between 8 and 9 PM? 
We did not because we completely forgot and it was Melchior's birthday. But it was a great idea and we did it last year for 5 minutes.
The idea is that people around the world turned off their lights at the same time for one hour so that it's like the earth is switching off and hopefully there is less energy used.

Last year we did it at pS58. We switched off the lights for 5 min in the classrooms and the custodians switched off the lights in the hallways. That was a nice way to show that we cared. Maybe we could pick a day for our school this year and we will turn off the lights for 10 minutes. We could also ask each family to switch off for 10 min in the evening on that day.  What do you think?

Life Straw.

Life straws are used for drinking in dirty waters and rivers . The company did these straws  for people who have to drink dirty water.( And also have no tap water.).We will hopefully have one
to show on earth day. 
Ciao!

Stop polluting!

Stop polluting because the earth is getting hot and one day the earth might die. And in Antarctica the ice is melting and the polar bears are dying because they cannot swim all day in the water. So that's why we should stop polluting. One day, our city is going to be flooded and people can't breathe under water. We saw on the web a project by an artist who traced white lines everywhere in Manhattan and Brooklyn to show where there will be water if it was flooding in New York. You can look at the pictures: highwaterline project
We don't want this to happen so we should stop people from motorcycles, cars or anything that uses gas. We should stop polluting!
