The Drill

What is off shore drilling?

• Off shore drilling is the drilling of oil out in the ocean.

Why is it good?

• Off shore drilling is good because it helps bring in oil resources, which eliviates the need for mining in our country as well as in others.

Why is it bad?

• Off shore drilling is bad because if an oil spill or a blowout happened, it could kill the workers as well as the marine habitat. This could also cause water pollution.

How do you feel about it?

• I feel that off shore drilling is a very effective way to save our enviroment, and stop having to use other country's for it's oil. But on the same hand, I feel that it is dangerous because of the possibility of an oil spill or an blowout. If this were to happen many creatures in the ocean would be lost, the toxic fumes could get into our air, and it could pollute our water.

Recycle Assignment

2. People in Fayetteville can recycle by using the little blue bin, or taking their recyclebles to the nearest recycle plant and drop them off.
3. Recycleing is a better way to do things because it can be reused in other products.
4. Tranquil Drive Fayetteville, NC

Save the world for a latte

Three things I learned:

• I learned that a startup is betting free coffees and groceries will encourage reluctant recyclers.
• in the south and mid-west, the recycleing rate is the lowest there.
• recycleing is most common on the coast.

Two things that I found interesting:

• That a town in Boston is offering free cofee and groceries to encourage reluctant recyclers.
• The south and mid-west have the lowest rate of recycling.

One question that I still have:

• Is this plan working for Boston.
