The Environmental Club
Before
I launch into my explanation of how the club is and what it is about, I would
like to mention that the club I chose to attend the meeting of, is the
Environmental Club. What I have learned, from some very kind earthlings, are
that the club revolves around the idea of helping the environment and protecting
it from harm. Cutting down non-native plants that surround the school area in
order to help the native plants thrive. Discussing eco-friendly alternatives to
everyday things we do. For example, an ongoing objective of the Environmental Club
right now is to stop people from using plastic utensils and Styrofoam/paper plates
when they go to buy food (outside of school and even in the cafeteria).
Instead, they encourage you to bring your own containers from home to store the
food in. As doing so will help prevent further damage to our fragile ecosystem.
The club also does fun projects on specific topics about the environment to try
and help raise awareness about what’s going on with our precious world. I
believe that the club is also going to take part in the BC Green Games, which
is quite exciting. (What happens in the BC Green Games are that several,
different teams each research an environmental
problem that they would like to solve and find a possible solution to it. The Green
Games help people come together and realize all the many, possible solutions to the environmental problems we have at hand. There is also a cash prize for the
winning projects). The Environmental Club is a great club to be a part of if
you love the environment, such as I, since Earth is a wonderful place. (Much better than Venus, where the greenhouse gases may just be getting to me). So much
has been explained regarding what the Environment Club is about, but I have yet
to explain the actual atmosphere of the club. Youth of all grades are members
of the club, and they are some of the nicest people I have met. Everyone is
friendly and if there is ever anything that you need to ask them, they are
willing to help you. It’s a great place to meet new people and make new
friends. In conclusion, the Environmental Club is a marvelous club to join if
you love the environment, or just want to meet new people.
This is a good post, I can defiantly tell you put tons of effort! Next time you can add more description on the club and where is and when. =D
ReplyDeleteYou started very well, just like an alien reporter, but then I think you started to forget you were an alien reporter and you started using "we" instead of "they". That's basically it, you did a good job!
ReplyDeleteVery strong writing. You had a good intro, but I expected more from the ending. Almost something more witty. (?) Overall it's a good first writing piece.

ReplyDeleteThis was a really great post, Hema! I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into this post. I loved the fact that you chose the “Alien” option! I actually really wanted to do that option, but I didn’t know where to start, so I did Option 5. You were very informative and detailed, so excellent job! Next time, just make sure you follow the criteria posted on the class blog. I feel like creatures not from Earth may be a little confused… But overall, amazing job. You have a really interesting, unique style of writing, and you summarized your club well. Awesome job!
