Meet Captain Planet, I am not. Here's the slides for the talk I am giving tomorrow on community groups in singapore involved with the environmental and nature conservation scene
The document discusses several threats facing dugongs, including poaching, boat collisions, shrinking habitat, and pollution. Dugongs are endangered by illegal hunting for their skin and meat. They are also threatened by fatal collisions with boats and propellers. Their seagrass habitat is decreasing due to factors like coastal development, and pollution from agricultural and industrial runoff is poisoning the seagrass and reducing the dugongs' food supply. This process of pollution-fueled seagrass loss is known as eutrophication. The document suggests ways to help dugong conservation, such as reducing pollution and protecting their seagrass habitat.
The document discusses the themes of separation and union. It notes that separation is a preparation for union, and that one should enjoy even the sweetness of separation as it allows you to appreciate communion. It advises the reader to return to their innocence and rediscover inner beauty. Several passages express love and devotion for someone even in their absence or separation. Overall the document encourages appreciating both separation and union as parts of a spiritual journey.
The document is a poem about remembering a loved one when they are apart. It suggests that when missing this person, to think of them during daily occurrences like the sunrise, a breeze, rain, or seeing the moon as a way for their spirit to still be present. It hopes that remembering each other through nature and dreams will comfort them until they can reunite once more.
The document discusses the difficulties of expressing love and vulnerability. It notes that it can be hardest to express love to someone right in front of you. Additionally, it may hurt more to say something and wish you hadn't, or say nothing and wish you had. The most important things, like expressing love, are the hardest to say because words diminish their meaning. The document encourages not being afraid to tell someone you love them for fear of heartbreak, as not telling could break their heart instead. It discusses wanting to love someone fully but being too afraid, as well as falling for a friend who falls for someone else. Overall, the document is about overcoming fear of rejection and vulnerability to express love and take risks in relationships
The narrator dreams of walking on the beach with the Lord, seeing scenes from their life flash across the sky with either one or two sets of footprints in the sand. When the narrator sees only one set of footprints during difficult periods of their life, they question the Lord about His promise to always be with them. The Lord explains that the times when only one set of footprints appeared were when He carried the narrator through hardship.
This poem explores the different types of tears that can flow from the eyes when emotions overwhelm the heart, such as tears of sorrow, joy, or sheer delight. Tears are seen as a natural expression that occurs when feelings build up within and cloud one's sight, but once the tears finish flowing a sense of calm remains as tears allow one to share an emotional experience.
The document is an article that criticizes modern-day explorers who attempt dangerous feats for the sole purpose of being "the first" or setting a new record. The article argues that most significant exploration has already been done and now explorers just take unnecessary risks to achieve minor distinctions or new combinations of past achievements. It also criticizes the waste of resources spent rescuing explorers from dangerous situations of their own making.

Ankylosaurus was a large, herbivorous dinosaur that lived during the late Cretaceous period, around 65 million years ago. It had a heavily armored body, grew up to 30 feet long, weighed 4 tons, and ate plants like fruit and berries. Ankylosaurus was found on multiple continents including North America and South America, and had adaptations like a clubbed tail to defend against predators like Tyrannosaurus rex.
The student enjoyed several aspects of their camp experience at Camp Seymour, including canoeing and seeing wildlife, bonding with friends in the yurts, and hands-on learning about the environment. They found that learning at camp was more interactive and fun compared to a classroom, using all five senses and directly interacting with nature. The high ropes course and rock climbing were personally challenging but helped students support each other. The camp counselors were knowledgeable about animals and nature, and added humor and stories that made the experiences memorable.
The document contains excerpts from several campers' journals about their experiences at Camp Seymour. It discusses activities like the night hike where one camper learned about plankton glowing in the estuary. Other excerpts discuss learning about reptiles, respecting the environment by reducing waste, rock climbing challenges, and hands-on learning being more fun than a traditional classroom.

1. The document summarizes a nature walk through a reserve near Canberra, Australia where the author spots various wildlife.
2. They observe echidnas and birds like the Crimson Rosella.
3. The walk concludes with the observation that a new housing development is being built near the reserve, raising questions about protecting the wildlife.
The document describes an experiment that tested the preferences of sowbugs (woodlice) between grass and sand substrates. The hypothesis was that sowbugs would prefer grass due to its moisture content and presence of decaying matter. 20 sowbugs were individually placed in a container half-filled with grass and half with sand. The results showed that sowbugs slightly preferred sand, with 11 choosing sand and 9 choosing grass. This suggests that sowbugs may prefer sand over grass as a substrate.
This document outlines an educational activity to teach kids about turtle ecology through tracking. The activity includes reading a story, going on a hike to look for turtle tracks, making paper mache tracks, and learning about turtle physiology, life cycles, predators, and conservation through videos and discussion. The goal is to help kids understand the world from a turtle's perspective and appreciate the importance of tracking animals to study and protect them.
1. The document describes a lesson about the book "Journey to the End of the Earth" by Tishani Doshi, which details the author's journey to Antarctica.
2. It discusses how Antarctica was once part of the supercontinent Gondwana 650 million years ago before separating, and how studying Antarctica helps understand the Earth's past, present and future climate and environment.
3. It also summarizes the "Students on Ice" program that aims to educate students on the impacts of climate change by taking them to places like Antarctica.
This document contains activity cards for using Sphero robots to simulate traveling around the world and addressing environmental issues on different continents. The cards provide prompts for tasks on each continent related to climate change, pollution, natural disasters, renewable energy and more. They are divided into early, first and second level activities of increasing complexity.
The document summarizes a student project to visit the River Stone Eco Resort in Sungai Tua. The group, called Nature's Generation, will observe and collect information about nature at their assigned site. They will then create an infographic poster and documentary video about their findings and experiences. The project aims to help students experience and appreciate nature.

A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
