Did you know that the world’s usable water is less than 0.071%? If people can conserve water, then the world will not be “waterless”. However, if we waste water a lot and “play with it” too much, then our world will have tiny, little amounts of water in lakes. Many wonder about water in the future, but it depends on how we use it. (+ ADD a thesis statement of 3 ways people can conserve water in the future here.)

Are you aware that scientists have stated that we may not have enough water for our future. It’s true! as people are handling their time using water in their household, we couldn’t possibly know that it is degenerating billions of waters all over the world. The three central focus that we need to know to make sure we meet the needs of water for our future is. How to stop water waste, the activity of how water works, and what scientists do to salt water that would be passed down for us to use.

Have you ever thought about how older and younger generations are so different? Do you know someone older or younger who acts as if they see the world differently? I believe we should learn from other generations and in return, they should learn from us. Generations can learn from each other because generations come and go, through further connection of families, and by allowing older and younger generations to understand each other more.

Did you know that people from different generations often have very different experiences? However, rather than seeing these differences as a divide, they can be viewed as opportunities for learning and growth. The two passages, "Bridging the Generation Divide Between a Football Father and a Soccer Son" and "Tutors Teach Seniors New High-Tech Tricks", show how people from different age groups can connect and learn from one another. Whether it's father and son debating sports or teens teaching seniors how to use technology, each generation brings something valuable to the table.

Coral reefs are commonly called the "rainforests of the sea" because they are home to rich biodiversity and are key components of marine ecosystems. However, coral reefs are facing strong threats that could entirely remove them from the face of the earth by the end of the century. Pollution and global warming are largely responsible for the deteriorating condition of coral reefs because they affect delicate ecosystems of which coral reefs are a part.

Coral reefs are beautiful, colorful underwater structures that play an important part in marine life. Did you know coral reefs are in immense danger? Scientist have done tests and research, and to their predictions coral reefs will no longer exist by 2100. Well, unfortunately they are in danger and it’s mostly due to humans and lack of care and because of that many coral reefs have been destroyed.

The story is about Coral reefs. The author made this story because its explains why coral reefs are the most beautiful diverse ecosystem of the universe & why they are in danger. The main issue of the coral reefs is that different kinds of pollution infecting the reefs by killing them slowly of the global warming & rising water temperatures .Climate change is a threat to coral reefs because of land based pollution, Land based pollution is a threat to coral reefs because in Caribbean they have about 8 percent from land base pollution from the ocean . They typically have an increase level of nitrogen in the water, Which can cause a overgrowth of algae. Run off can introduce a harmful effect for coral reefs, There are thousands of species from finding food & shelters because they all are delicate from a balance of creatures & its living for a organisism, For its dixiode & calium water. Coral reefs are underwater ecosystem include of animals & plants. From the story its telling us that “These livings Organisim can rely on each other to survive”. Coral polyps is one of the living parts of a coral reef, it uses sunlight & warm water so it can create algae. Algae keeps the coral reefs alive, The balance is tipped for global warming across the planet .Global warming causes carbon dixodie and other gases are stuck in the atmosphere. The gases prevent heat, So it causes air & water temperatures to rise. The last thing is that coral reefs faces a lot of danger because of modern soicety ,pollution, tourisim & coastal plain development.

How do people learn from others? Over the years of time, generations passed and others learn more and more! Other generations can help you learn new things. For example, if you want to learn a new sport, a person who already knows how to play can teach you. They are most likely going to be older than you because they could have been playing the sport before you were born. The person who is teaching you learned from another generation, then they passed the sports learning down to you. ---> (+ a THESIS statement that SHOWS HOW older and younger generations can learn from each other....2 ways generations can learn from each other. )

In every generation, they develop a very unique perspective shaped by the times they live in. One area where this is particularly noticeable is in the world of sports. For example, while older generations may have grown up with the excitement of American football, younger generations are drown to soccer, a sport that has gained popularity. (“Baseball was tops in my dad’s day, and football is in mine.”)18.

The dad loves American football, while his son Will is all about soccer. This difference shows how each generation grows up with different interests. Even though they don’t agree at first, their love for sports gives them a chance to understand each other better. It shows that differences can actually bring people closer.

In the second story, teenagers help older adults learn how to use technology, like email, smartphones, and social media. At first, both groups were unsure about each other, but they ended up learning a lot. The seniors gained new tech skills, and the teens learned patience and gained respect for the older generation. As one teen tutor said, (“I think it’s a very good idea to work on your patience and be more understanding when it comes to what’s going on in their minds.” 13)They even became friends, showing that both young and old have something valuable to share.

Both stories show that people from different generations can learn from each other when they take time to listen and share. The dad and son bonded over their favorite sports, while the teens and seniors connected through technology. In both cases, they gained respect for each other’s experiences. These stories prove that age doesn’t matter when it comes to learning something new.

People from different generations may have different interests, but that doesn’t mean they can’t connect and learn from each other. Whether it’s sports or technology, both young and old have something valuable to share. These stories show that with patience and an open mind, generations can understand each other better. In the end, learning goes both ways — and it can even bring people closer together.

Have you ever thought of how people can learn from one another over time? If so, then this is for you. People can learn different things from people of different generations.  Some people are trying to figure out how to do difficult things, and they can learn this from people of a different generation than them. They can learn how to play sports, and they can also ask other people to teach them new things.

Coral Reefs are under attack! Coral reefs have been through some rough times over the past years due to global warming. According to the articles, it mentions "Global warming and pollution has increased by 80% over the past 30 years". Global warming and pollution have been a main factor in coral reefs dying. From trash bags in the ocean and heat levels rising by unruly amounts, from normally 80 degrees to 105! Scary to think about. + (Add a Thesis statement! threat 1, threat 2 and threat) Trash bags are hurting life in the ocean by turtles choking on plastic water bottles to sharks getting stuck in filth. Global warming is rising over the years and fish and reefs, one reason is coral bleaching, it causes the coral to be weakened and killing them off.

---> PUT this evidence in your body paragraphs to prove your thesis. --->In the first article it mentions "Land-based pollution is the primary danger to coral reefs’ Some examples are runoff from sewage, pesticides or even petroleum. This is bad for the ocean and most people know it, but they still do it every day. It also mentions in the 2nd article, “Global warming is caused when carbon dioxide and other gases are trapped in the atmosphere." this could be gases from Greenhouse, Oil farms and even industrial plants.

Water plays a big impact in life but there always isn’t a lot of water that’s why in the future we need to change some of the habits we do with water such as using less water  because animals need water to stay alive from the story ive read  a whale uses water to travel through sound waves  sonar standings can do those type of things a sonar standing can help  whales surroundings they listen for sound waves to come back whales can  know the size of items but not only do whales use sonar standings the U.S NAVY also uses the sonar but they use it to track any other ships but there is a few bad things about it the sonar may make very loud sounds and this will cause stress to whales causing them to then panic this is because a whales hearing is very sensitive whales may try to dive back in the ocean but diving to fast will make the whales alter their diving patterns to fast causing them to even die strandings mainly only affect one species whales and dolphins use sound to travel so imagine hearing a really loud sound and you cant travel anywhere because that really loud sound is blocking you being able to hear the sound waves the ocean has became extremely loud and distracting because of military sonar ship traffic noises from air guns  this really impacts marine animal health dolphins/whales cant find food because of its noisy environment

Each year we lose up to one trillion gallons of water, and thats a lot of water wasted but, we can slow that down and or potentially stop the water waste. let me explain, Every single day we use and waste more than a thousand gallons of water in the average home whether it be in the kitchen to bathroom or the pool we still carelessly use water without any consideration for the future. so Ill tell you how to prevent excessive water loss, convince others to try and prevent water loss, and to ensure that water will still be around in the future.

Did you know that people can save gallons of water by doing saving it different ways? water is critical for our life on earth for us to breath and live, it also makes our body healthy, but sometimes people will throw trash in the water which can make animals sick from drinking water and it can make freshwater bad as well. We need to save clean water by turning off the water when brushing your teeth, monitoring water use in the kitchen, replacing  a old toilet can saves a gillions of water.

There is a current situation going on with coral reefs, and you may wonder "what is that situation is about?". well, it is mainly about coral reefs and threats that are being made to them.

Coral reefs are mostly known for how beautiful and versatile they are, but as beautiful they are considered, they have major threats that could damage them and make them completely disappear such as marine pollution, rising water temperatures, climate change and more. All these are horrible but marine pollution is the most damaging to coral reefs as said in Source 1 "This pollution is the greatest danger to the survival of coral reefs." How is all this harming coral reefs people may wonder?

A large amount of marine species of course "find food and shelter in coral reefs." as said in Source 1 "Rain Forests of The Sea" and "They are all part of a delicate balance of creatures that rely on each other to stay alive." Therefore, other sea creatures rely on them to live because they know the risk of what could happen if they didn’t rely on them for their lives, if they all were to be destroyed because of world problems like marine pollution or rising water temperatures, etc., this would make it difficult for other marine species to survive knowing their source of food and shelter is gone. Pollution and other worldly issues like shipping, plastic bags, glass, metal, etc, can do serious damage to the sea.

However, I don’t just mean marine pollution, which is also an issue, but we're mainly talking about Land- based pollution and Global warming which is mentioned in Source 2 that is affecting coral reefs. BUT the good thing is there is a way we can fix these problems, and its very simple. "Just stop polluting our government." clearly stated in Source 1, if we stop putting trash everywhere, fix poor sewage, and eliminate things that could harm the sea, this problem will have a great solution. And for global warming which I said is mentioned in Source 2, there are a few things we should be aware of before talking about the solution.

First off is global warming is very harmful to coral reefs and are actually destroying them, "Global warming is caused when carbon dioxide and other gases are trapped in the atmosphere." so this gas prevents heat from escaping, which makes air including water temperatures to rise, This leads to coral reefs having what's mentioned in Source 2 as well "Coral bleaching." this is when it gets a white appearance and the polyps most likely die, so for animals who rely on coral reefs and polyps could also die, just because they use this as a food source or shelter. But the solution to fix this, is better with energy conservation and mass transportation, in addition to this we can also volunteer to clean up waterways.

This is how worldly activities and issues can make marine animals or source of food and shelter in danger, but we also have a solution for these problems.

** HOOK +++ There are different ways to ensure that people have access to water in the future.

Because Most things we do/need have to do with water and animals need water to survive. First of all to make it official that we need water and should allow clean water in the future. (Tell us how to get/keep clean water.)

Did you know the coral reefs are a vital part of underwater ecosystems? They provide shelter for many creatures and it also maintains a balance in the ecosystem. This balanced however, is being endangered by pollution between the years of 2008 and 2009 alone the world had lost 14 percent of its coral reefs this equates to about 11,700 square kilometers of coral. this destruction is caused by many kinds of pollution the most dangerous is land pollution. ADD a THESIS??

Water is very important because people, animals, and plants need it to live. But sometimes, there isn’t enough clean water for everyone. This can happen when people waste water, when it gets dirty, or when there isn’t enough rain. To make sure people have enough water in the future, we need to do two things: use less water and find new ways to get clean water.

**** (ADD a Hook) So basically, in the old generation, old people like to garden, read the newspaper, bake cakes, and other things like that. But in the young generation, they like to play video games, go to their friends' houses, like to dance or even like to stay up all night and eat snacks and drink sodas all the time. Now how can older people learn from younger people, the older can learn from the younger people is by being more active.

Introduction paragraph: Did you know that there are major dangers to coral reefs, some people may ask, "how can a coral reef be in danger?".  Well here are three major dangers to prove to you that coral reefs are in danger.  One three major dangers toward the Coral Reef is climate change  or other wise known as global warning. Global warming is caused when carbon dioxide and other gases are trapped in the atmosphere. The gases prevent heat from escaping and cause air and water temperatures to rise.

There is a lot of phenomenon mass When whales stand on the beach, and that this puzzle the people on the beaches’ it said in paragraph sonar standings 1 it stated that’ ’finding an individual whale on the beach is just like an ordinary event. Whales are just like other animals, they can become sick and disoriented for several reasons. A single whale might lose its bearing and run around but the evidence is that mounting that many mass whale standing are caused by whales themselves-sonar. This evidence explains that finding a whale on the beach can mean many different things and several reasons as well and that they are also caused by themselves such as sonar. Also, the high intensity sound could cause distress in whales.
