Snow



I am lying in my bed with my school laptop lying on my chest writing this post. It is late and the snow covered ground is get beatin down by the crashing rain, the rain nailing my window. I am thinking about when I was on my school soccer team and how rain to us was just a thought, even though we are in middle school and been through lots of rain. Are field was dry and bright green. Two weeks ago when I left for winter break I gave a last look at that soccer field, it was all muddy and brown. I never got a goel though but running after the ball and getting passed to and passing again was great. Now we are playing basketball and it is now in the same gym with pretty much the same team.

Poeple thought it was goining to stay like this though. Poeple want Santa to land a a pillow of snow whitch he has not done in years around my town. It is a sad thing to think about and clubs like "Green Team" are speading the news. We are living on a living hell, but you can help and in some places things are getting better. If you do belive in Santa this would be a good time to think, "How can I make Santa have Christmas more like Christmas. I made a small list of ways YOU can save energy.

If you have a computer of a PS2 ect. when you are done using it, unplug it. You do not know how much energy you are saving.

When you leave a room always shut of the lights.

Electric toothbrushes are a rip, you can get ones that run by battery for the same price.

Celabrate do not Hibernate.

If you think these tips are ok but you need more, think of some, or just leave a comment saying more.

Hi orcadan,
redsoxbernie checking in. I agree with your energy-saving tips. I also suggest that you turn off your printer when not in use. Another good way to save energy is to use compact flourescent bulbs. They are much more energy-efficient than regular incandescent bulbs. They cost more but last much longer. In a few years, incandescent bulbs will not be produced. A good way to save trees is
to use both sides of your paper (on different jobs) when printing from your computer.

That is what I do to. My school also uses both sides of paper. Are light bulbs save energy but they take a couple minutes to get light but it is worth it. Go Sox!
