The ROARsome Ramblings of Emmett Cullen: Issue 2




Emmett is concerned!

I was on a last minute hunt the other day when I stumbled upon a herd of deer. Okok, I know you don’t want to hear this but I am getting to my point. After my snack, I had a weird taste in my mouth and thought to myself how the deer’s blood didn’t taste as good as it usually did. My brain went into high gear and came to the conclusion that it had to be the environment the deer were in.(yes I know what your thinking and I do have a functioning brain).

To make a long story short, our earth is very precious to us. We should take care of our environment seeing as we need it to live in it. Not helping in the aid of protecting in it results in things such as bad air quality and bad living environments.(yes that means it can hurt us physically, such as the deer)

Are you thinking that just because you're one person that you can't make much of an impact? Well your wrong. If tons of people just change one way in their lifestyle then it can make a huge difference. Below I have a couple of tips as to how you can help the environment. The great thing about these tips is that in most cases you really won’t have to change your lifestyle radically to have an impact on the environment.

Turn off lights and televisions when not using them. Less energy being used helps out big time plus it will cut down the energy bill which will make your parents or yourself much happier.

Carpool or walk to closer areas.-Big help in cutting back on gas use(which yet again saves money)and less exhaust fumes.
