      <title>A recycling charity in your area is very concerned about the amount of waste and household rubbish. Write an online campaign text aimed at parents to persuade them to think carefully about what they throw away. In your text, create a sense of optimism and belief in change. (10 marks) by Spring Canada</title>
      <link>https://padlet.com/scanada9/ocavt025gb0kr4ww</link>
      <description>Now, on your own, once you have discussed your ideas, draft campaign text of no more than 150 words. Make sure you include an attention-grabbing (but relevant) heading. You do not need to include a picture but you could use some simple design features, such as bullet points, subheadings, and so on, to create an impact on the reader.</description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>  Sophia Hart</p><p><br/></p><p> The amount of waste coming from your homes is insane! So insane that our local animals like squirrels and stary cats have been seen trying to eat all of the waste. This is absurd. Imagine if you had to eat a plastic bottle, doesn't sound too good, right? We NEED to start recycling and throwing away our trash or else one day we'd be without these animals. You don't want that do you?</p><p><br/></p><p>    If you see trash on the ground while you're on a walk, pick it up and throw it away! We could host monthly neighborhood clean ups where you can volunteer with your kids to help keep our area clean. These are all simple things that can help keep rubbish out of the mouths of these critters. Not only will it help these animals stay safe, it'll keep our neighborhood beautiful. As long as you do your part.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Parents all around the world!!</p><p>Do not throw away trash that can be reused. The big ocean we have is full of trash and that water, there's a bunch of wastelands that could have been natural habitat for animals, and the roads and landscapes are already trashy just by littering. Pollution is a thing people, and we need to decrease the pollution rates by alot. Who would want to live in a world full of trash? Not me, that's for sure. So i say we do something about it. </p><p><br/></p><p>Mother Nature ain't happy!! </p><p>She would have wanted us to keep this world clean and reuse stuff that is non biodegradable but instead people litter everywhere and it becomes a mess. We need to change as a whole and start doing better. For now on we need to be the Mr. Clean of the environment and make Mother Nature happy like she once was. </p><p><br/></p><p>Tommy Howard      Block 2</p>]]></description>

We've burned its atmosphere. We have damaged the earth. </p><p>	People need to be more conscious about the things others do to negatively impact this planet.

Its now time to join in our communities and with our recycling charity and make a difference. With every little action we are one step closer to a cleaner future, and doesnt that sound nice.</p><p><br/></p><p>We need to be more careful with what we throw away and here are some reasons</p><ol><li><p>By recycling and reducing waste, our environment will be protected from pollution and depletion of natural resources </p></li><li><p>We can all agree that younger minds will almost always copy what their parents/ guardians do when they get used to seeing the same person everyday they will eventually start to think and do what that person does. When a elder does show the importance of waste and how to manage it correctly, it will have a great impact on thier kids.</p></li><li><p>A plus for everyone is that it saves money, how many times have you had to thrown away something and repurchase that very same item, well when you do recycle it saves your money and new products can be made from recycled materials.</p></li></ol><p>So lets all take a step closer to a cleaner future. Join us on this very exciting project of change. With all of us collaborating we can make a difference  </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>By Andre Stone - Block 6</p><p><br/></p><p>Do you like to go to the <strong>beach</strong>, or perhaps, the <strong>park</strong>? Do you ever go there to enjoy the <strong>scenery</strong>, or the <strong>nature</strong>? How about going there with your <strong>kids</strong>? Do they enjoy it? If any of this is <strong>true</strong>, then you may <strong>not</strong> be able to enjoy it for much longer unless you <strong>recycle</strong>. </p><p><br/></p><p>Your kids won't be able to hear the birds sing if they're choking on bits of thrown out plastic, and your kids won't get to enjoy taking walks on the beach or swimming in the water if there's nothing but trash left. </p><p><br/></p><p>You may be wondering what you can do to stop this. Here's what you can do.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>REDUCE</strong></p><p>You can start out by not using up as many disposable items. If you like to use a disposable razor, you're posing a risk to any animal or child may accidentally come across it. Instead, use a more durable razor that will last.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>REUSE</strong></p><p>Your children can use recyclable items for many creative purposes. They can use that smudged printer paper to make themselves a little sketch. They can use those bendy straws to make the limbs of a robot. They can do anything if they put their mind to it!</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>RECYCLE</strong></p><p>If your kids can't find a use for those items, then somebody else will surely find one!</p><p><br/></p><p>Your kids are the future of this planet. We can't let that go to <strong>waste</strong>.</p><p><br/></p><p>Go to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://GoGreen.com">GoGreen.com</a> for more information on Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

Not only is as shirt just $3 but giving away a too small shirt is <strong>FREE</strong>! </p></li><li><p><strong>D.I.Y</strong>. Do it yourself. take that old sock and make a puppet! </p></li><li><p><strong>Compost Bin</strong>. Place it in the backyard, you can even plant some nice flowers. </p></li><li><p>Family reunion just ended and you live alone? Take those leftovers you will never eat and donate it to a homeless shelter</p></li><li><p><strong>Reuse</strong> plastic cups and plates. They can last a few washes.</p><p><br/></p><p> Nobody wishes for a dirty world, but wishes have no <strong>POWER</strong> against the inevitable <strong>future. </strong></p></li></ul><p><br/></p><p> If anyone want to help change our community we will be holding a highway cleanup on 2/24/24.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>By Jeremy Taylor</p><p><br/></p><p>Parents, do you allow your kids to play in the trash? Im sure you don't , but soon enough you will be if we don't make a change. This community has seriously been affected by waste and household rubbish. The damage has already been done , but there are steps that we can take to insure that the future generations will have somewhere safe and clean to live.</p><p><br/></p><p>In order for the future generations to have a clean enviornment we must start with the 3 R's. Reduce, Reuse, and recycle. The Green Earth Committee has suggested that parents start using reuseable grocery bags , reuseable straws, and reusable water bottles. They also motivate the community to start recycling everything that they can. The Green Earth Committee offers community service hours for cleaning up the nearby parks and other areas of the city. </p><p><br/></p><p>As a member of the community myself I strongly agree that we need to step up and make a change. It is honestly unacceptable that kids have to play in these nasty parks and breathe the trashy air. It is sad that the animals have to live with all this trash. </p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

Well that didn't work now did it?</p><p><br/></p><p>While you should do those things anyway it certainantly is not the ultimate solution, the oly way to stop climate change is to cut it off from the real source. The source every papar straw toting mega corporation doesn't want you to know about, because that source is them.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>By: Nathan Logan.</p><p>5th block</p><p>Hey parents, we are up to our eyes in trash! We can't live like this, if we keep  treating our world like this we'll have nowhere else to live. It may seem impossible and pointless but I guarentee you that it is, with the help of you and the rest of the world we can make our planet thrive again, starting with considering the earth more, like recycling if you get plastic utensils try reusing them for a good while instead of throwing them away. Another solution is proper desposal, if we ever need to throw something away we should throw it away properly instead of. Littering, this could also be a good example fot children making them care for the planet. One more way by helping the local environment cleaning up lakes parks and forest could help the environment by a lot. Lasty I know we rely on nature for many things, but what you all need to do is relpenish what you take, like if you cut down a tree to make paper regrow the tree, don't just take until there's nothing left. This is our world we have to take care of it, and i know we can do it!</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Rolando alomar 5th block</p><p><br/></p><p>Greetings mothers and fathers. Today we speak of a matter that threatens all who inhabit earth which unfortunately includes your children. Climate change is coming, slowly but steadily, while it may not be very detrimental to most of you at the moment if the rise of climate change continues it will come around to affect almost all aspects of life for those who live to see that future which will inevitably be your children and it will be far more severe. The ozone layer is still mostly intact and there is quite a bit of time in which change can be made.</p><p>If you want to help the planet you can:</p><p><br/></p><p>A: stop buying from high pollution companies, a massive amount of pollution comes from companies, often the same ones that tell you to change your lifestyle to pollute less.</p><p><br/></p><p>B: Just because those companies are hypocrytical (and just want esg points) the advice they tell isn't entirely useless</p><p><br/></p><p>C: The 3 Rs (reduce reuse and recycle). Ok lets be honest here nobody likes to reduce so i will focus on the other 2 as you can easily recycle plastic trash in the correct areas and you could go thrift shopping for cheaper and more environmentally friendly clothes.</p>]]></description>

If yes, listen up!!</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>Think It Out</strong></p><p>As parents, sometimes after a long day we just want to clean up and get rid of everything ever. We don't even think about it, we just grab and throw. But we should start thinking about it.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>Why Should We?</strong></p><p>Too much waste is ruining the environment our children are living in. This waste isn't safe and neither are your kids.
