It's all about sneezing and how it might be contagious. The article goes on to explain that researchers spent a year gathering data from 100 adults. They came up with a theory that maybe sneezing says something about your relationships. The article talks about what triggers sneezing and what happens in your brain when you sneeze. Then it concludes again with the fact that sneezing might be contagious-McRae mcraeoates https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302707686 2018-11-09 18:29:19 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302707686 Albert albertgao https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302709884 My article is about a small town called Donova, who changed the U.S. The town had a huge amount of smog, that enveloped the whole town. Soon, people started dying because of the song. The government restrictied the amount of factories can produce, and a new organization was formed.

It also was about how it will impact the world in the future, like that in fifty years everyone on the coastal would have to move. natashapontillo https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302712292 2018-11-09 18:38:49 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302712292 Nicole nicole_salerno https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302784708 The article I read was about how MIT engineers created a transparent plastic wrap-like film that blocks 70% of solar heat. When the temperature reaches above 89˚ Fahrenheit, it turns slightly frosty-looking and blocks the heat. With this on windows, everyone could use air conditioning less, which will help the environment.]]> 2018-11-09 21:53:44 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302784708 Aland https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302814145 In the MIT news article, it talked about how the batteries we are using today, are light and a good source of energy, but they pollution our country by corrupting while not in use. But, the MIT made lithium batteries which are lighter and charges so they can not be able to pollution the earth. Also, even though aluminum-air batteries have a pretty good price and are light, they lose 80 percent of their charge while lithium batteries lose only. ]]> 2018-11-10 02:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302814145 The article that I read was about the Air pollution can put a dent in solar power. Today we can't even see the sky because of the air pollution problem. If the size of an installation is based on expected levels of sunlight reaching the ground in that area, without considering the effects of haze -Ella https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302822119 2018-11-10 04:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302822119 Hayoung hayoungkim https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302930290 My article was about Life on Mars. For a long time, people have believed that there can't be life on Mars. However, recent findings from rovers that explored Mars have shown that organic molecules, which have carbon, have been found on Mars. Also, consistent levels of methame have been found, which shows that an unknown substance is replenishing it. However, ore evidence is needed to prove that life is possible on Earth!]]> 2018-11-11 02:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/302930290 Amy https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303024154 In the article I read, it talked about how carbon dioxide from power plants could be put into a battery that would turn it into a solid mineral carbonate. That battery would then store the carbon dioxide instead of releasing it into the air, helping to use that carbon dioxide to power a toy or light bulb instead of using some other toxic material to make a battery.]]> 2018-11-11 18:41:33 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303024154 Ryan Q https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303068584 The article I read was “Deadly 1948 Donora Smog Launched the U.S. Clean Air Movement” and is about how and why they launched the Clean air movement. The main reason they launched the clean air movement was because the town used a lot of zinc. This was bad because too much zinc can be sickening and sometimes lethal, which is exactly what happened to thousands of people in the small town of Debora, Pennsylvania.]]> 2018-11-12 00:09:21 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303068584 Brooke brookewang https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303373859 The article that I read was about Rhesus Macaques monkeys in Florida. These monkeys breed rapidly and a study estimates that by 2022, the population will double if people cannot control it. These monkeys carry a rare, deadly virus called Herpes B that can spread to a human and cause inflammation to the brain or spinal cord and that can lead to brain damage or death.]]> 2018-11-12 17:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303373859 The article I read was about extending the life of low cost batteries. It was saying batteries lose 5 percent of charge after every month of shelf life. But MIT is making a design where it introduced an oil barrier between the aluminum electrode and electrolyte which makes it lose only .02 percent a month. https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303449943 Nick]]> 2018-11-12 19:45:56 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303449943 Ben bensoudak https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303483061 the article I read about is about the engineers at MIT created a see-through film that blocks 70% of incoming solar heat. MIT made this not only to reduce the price of annual air conditioning, but also to reduce the amount of energy used by using an air conditioner. the engineers say that if you put  a  film on every window in a building, the cost will, with a high probability, drop 10%.  ]]> 2018-11-12 21:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303483061 Sofia sofiapascua https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303505102 My article is about how some animals are becoming nocturnal because of human activities.  The article talks about how human presence alone is enough to change their behavior patterns. It is also about how any human activity can effect their behavior patterns.]]> 2018-11-12 22:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303505102 Charli https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303516937 The article that I read was all about different people and what they do to make the world a better place. In the article Meet the Experts you get a sense of some of the jobs that people do to help our environment .]]> 2018-11-12 23:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303516937 Nathan https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303532899 In the article I read, Extending the Life of a Low-cost, Compact, Lightweight Batteries, it is about scientists putting an oil barrier between the aluminum electrode and the electrolyte. After the scientists did that, they learned that the fluid rapidly eats away at the aluminum battery and the oil is replaced with electrolyte as soon as the battery is used, causing the battery to run on energy to just .02 a month, more than a thousandfold improvement.]]> 2018-11-13 01:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303532899 Habin habinim https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303545251 The article that I read was about why have solar energy costs fallen? MIT researchers have been awarded a grant of nearly $1.3 million through the U.S. Department of Energy’s SunShot Initiative to study the reasons for solar energy’s rapid and sustained cost decline and how to continue reducing costs in the future. This project also provides insights for policymakers, engineers, and other stakeholders to inform their research and development investments and policy designs in the future.]]> 2018-11-13 02:21:29 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303545251 Elian https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303566545 I did my about extending the life of low cost, compact, Lightweigh batteries.

Scientists observed that the sea spiders would get weak from the heavy load and get sweeped away by the ocean currents. There are many types of sea spiders that are struggling with these irritating barnacles]]> 2018-11-13 15:14:16 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303784333 Ali alifehmi https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303807309 The article I read is about humans that truly love the parrots. Some of these parrots were either given away by their owners or needed a new owner because their owner died. Parrots are very sensitive animals and people take them in, are kind to them, and rehabilitate them after the loss of their owner. The parrots make the people happy and they make the parrots happy, and having parrots as pets and respecting these animals will continue into the future!]]> 2018-11-13 15:38:29 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303807309 Sawyer https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303825986 2018-11-13 16:02:10 UTC https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303825986 Sawyer (sorry for the other one that has my name on it, I couldn’t delete it or edit it) sawyerhawkins https://padlet.com/laurastuber/w9oxdl7fl86c/wish/303827597 So, I read Energy MIT News(look below) about solar energy powered cars racing and how this can be fun and good for the environment!
