Tips!

Hi again.This posts is created just for tips.Use less hot water It takes a lot of energy to heat water. You can use less hot water by installing a low flow showerhead (350 pounds of carbon dioxide saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds saved per year) instead of hot.Unplug electronics from the wall when you’re not using them Even when turned off, things like hairdryers, cell phone chargers and televisions use energy. In fact, the energy used to keep display clocks lit and memory chips working accounts for 5 percent of total domestic energy consumption and spews 18 million tons of carbon into the atmosphere every year!Recycling!This can help to reduce the usage of natural resources like trees, and thus reducing the number of trees being deforested, and more trees are able to hold the soil , preventing water pollution and mudslides.Eat less meat, as farmers need not breed plenty of cows, which are one of the biggest methane emitters(greenhousegases like CO2)Oh well, this is all i can give, hope that you can take actions!

A good movie!

Hi!Today , i will be talking about i movie that i have watched on HBO.That movie is called"An inconvenient truth"Its about the environment,and an environmentalist called Al gore.This movie teaches us the effects and consequences of global warming, like the increase in more hurricanes,increasing of sea levels due to the melting glaciers .Animals are slowly moving towards the poles due to change in climate, in 2050, it's predicted that more than a million species of animals worldwide will face extinction.Ultimately, a food web and the ecosystem, which involves us, will be damaged.This has also increased the increase in malaria and dengue as insects that carry these diseases thrive in a warmer condition.What was once full of ice, (artic ocean) will soon be ice free.Did you know that only 3 or 4% of the energy in fuels are used in the tyres to move the driver!97% are wasted in engines and other parts of the car. We have to start now, by doing little little things like bying energy efficient applances, reduce the usage off electricity by switching off appliances when not in use, ask companies if they introduce green energy, if don't, ask"Why not?".This is harder and tougher than it seems, but if we really love and care for our planet, making such small sacrifices are nothing.Wake up everyone!Let's unite to save what's so perfect, the greatest gift God have gave us, our home,our EARTH!

Camps! Holidays!

Hi!I've just finished my camp, same camp as the P5 camp,but rather interesting.I have built stronger bonds with many people, this camp teaches us important life lessons.For instance, teamwork and trust, we played a game called "monkey's tail" and it was really fun.The purpose behind this game was to watch for our friend's backs, just like we should in life. We also did cheers and other games, they were really useful as it not only teaches us about teamwork, but sportsmanship. At the end of the camp, we learnt a lot, about life,experiencing the beauty of nature and friends.I want to thank the school for organising this camp,it has taught me so much.Well, holidays are next week!Given many homework, but doesn't affect my mood a lot, i'm really excited, more time for family, fun and reading.I could use the holidays for some enriching activities too.Looking forward to tommorow and the next term.I will be going out with my primary school friends.Next term, i'm really excited about it,gaining for knowledge and seeing my friends again.I hope each and everyone of you a FUN AND ENRICHING HOLIDAY!BYE!

Apocalypse how?

hi guys!I've just watched a documentary called"Apocalypse how?", it shares the views of scientists all over the rld, how the world is going to end,there are many theories but the one that i paid much attention to is the one on global warming.It talks about what global warming is, increasing in temperature ,melting glaciers and other disasters.Global warming is the warming effect of the Earth,due to excess CO2 emissions from industries and vehicles,these has led to the increase in temperature all over the world.You might think,"So what?"well, this also cayse the melting of glaciers and increase in sea level.You also might think that you're not living in the coastal areas, "scared what?" Well, it is predicted if this goes on, flooding a florida and londan will soon happen!Later, they talked about how 6 degrees could change the world.1-2 degrees might lead to the decreasing production of crops and the whole world will be affected, estimating that many would starve and most of the coral reefs and animals will be extinct.3-4degrees will eventually melt marjority of the glaciers, increasing sea level, warming the oceans up,more hurricanes.5-6 degrees will make most of the lands BONE DRY!This aren't made up, their facts!Not trying to scare you,but all these could happen sooner than you think,we have to start taking actions, try harder.Earth is the only planet that supports life in the slolar system!Our only home, we must protect it.

Going green!

Hi,today i'm going to talk about something different ,i have read an interesting article in today's paper,in the HOME section.The title of it is "Fairmont goes green"It is a plot driven story as it has a main idea which is how they are going green, which i will further elaborate.This is an article about a restaurant(szechuan court restaurant) in Fairmont Singapore hotel striking shark's fin off the menu, as well as sea bass and blue tuna.I really feel that this is the right thing to do.Why you ask?I know shark's fin is mouth- watering and all, but the ugly side of this,is that it endangers the population of117 species of sharks!This affects the biological food web of the sea and ultimately us.It's cruel how fishermen treats these sharks, they cut of their fins and after that ,throw them back to the sea.The worst is yet to come,after that,they will either bleed to death or drown as the essential part of their body(fin)that gives them the ability to swim is removed from them.It could also attract other sharks and predators in the ocean.This hotel also has other environmentally friendly projects that include recycling 20000 kg of waste materials and to save water ,guests that are staying for a least 2 days can ask roomkeepers to make their bed without using fresh linen daily.MOre of us should consider going to this restaurant or hotel not only for these reasons, but it also provides organic and healthy food for us to dine.I hope that more hotels and restaurants could develop the same idea and more actions should be taken on environmental issues.

Going to a great dinner!

Hey guys,wonder why I'm blogging so early?Well my parents are bring us over to my father's friend's house!You might think"Why so excited?"Well,i get along very well with my father's friend's children !I'm sure it will be a great dinner,lots of fun and games.I can also say that it's a good time for me to take a break after a long and exhausting week!My tutor always say not have high expectations of oneself,or one may mentally break down.She tells me to relax and give yourself a little reward for an acomplishment, this will encourage me to strive harder .Oh well, i need to go,and please everyone, posts some comments!i have not seen a single comment or viewers!I hope my efforts of blogging are not wasted as no one gets to appreciate it.Bye!

Exams!

Are your exams around the corner?Well, mine is!I do feel a little stress,but i can cope with the stress.How?You ask, my methodof coping with stress would be putting aside the work , the pressure and just close my eyes for 10 seconds and think about happy things,for me , I think of Chinese New Year and Christmas.All the fun I had during these times,If i still feel distressed, i would take a walk around the garden or watch some Television.Never give in to peer pressure,and resort to foolish ideas of commiting suicide or other things that could harm you just because you feel distressed.Talk to someone, your teachers or parents.Just take exams as a review of what you have learnt!If you didn't do well in them,do not fret!Take Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton for instance,they both did badly in school when in our age!But what did they achieve?Great breakthroughs and discovery in Science!As long as you don't give up,you can have a good life ahead like the two scientists I mentioned.Well i have to get back to my studies now......Bye!And remember .NEVER GIVE IN TO PEER PRESSURE!
