Students complete projects like creating eBooks, filming movies, and coding games. They learn safe searching, typing, troubleshooting, and using tools like Excel and Google Sites. Her goal is for students to apply technology skills to innovate, collaborate, think critically, and be responsible digital citizens.
Dirty Oceans by Paige
Trash from people gathers in huge patches in the ocean over six years, which sea animals mistake for food and get sick or stuck eating, so cleaning up beaches helps keep the ocean clean as the beach is a habitat and home for sea animals, and with a clean ocean you can see fish which is fun when exploring the sea.
Clean Oceans by Jenny
The document discusses the problem of plastic trash in oceans forming giant garbage patches that wash onto beaches and can harm ocean animals. It recommends using less plastic bags and water bottles and getting reusable water bottles instead, not littering, and having clean oceans to create a better habitat for all ocean creatures.
Protect Rainforests by Ronik
This document discusses the importance of protecting rainforests and provides tips for helping the environment. It encourages readers not to litter in rainforests as it creates extra work to clean up. It also warns that cutting down too many trees is bad because rainforests provide oxygen and habitat. Some solutions proposed include properly disposing of trash, reusing materials like paper, and being mindful of how our daily actions can impact the planet.
Save the Trees by Heidi
People cut down whole forests for farming and building materials which can harm animal habitats, so Congress should make laws to protect more trees, and people can help by planting new trees to create forests and taking care of existing trees.

Smog by Max
Smog is a combination of smoke and fog that can harm humans, animals, and plants, leading to over 2.4 million deaths per year from air pollution and increased risks of lung cancer and heart disease. The document provides suggestions for reducing smog such as carpooling, using solar energy instead of fossil fuels, unplugging appliances, biking instead of driving, and using less gasoline and electricity to help improve air quality and the health of both people and the environment.
Resources by Jacob
Fossil fuels like coal are non-renewable resources that will eventually be used up, and burning them for energy produces air pollution; however, people can help by installing solar panels on their roofs to harness renewable solar energy, which can provide sustainable energy for the earth without pollution from burned fossil fuels.
Help the Earth by Recycling by Sophia
People throw away 50 billion drink cans each year which harms the Earth. Recycling is important because 85% of trash ends up in dumps and 30% of waste is packaging material. Glass can remain in the environment for over 4,000 years, so recycling helps reduce waste and prevents harmful materials from polluting the planet for a long time.
Trash in the Ocean
This document discusses the need for cleaning up trash in the ocean to help sea creatures and the environment. It asks for help cleaning up trash and not throwing nets in the ocean, as trash and nets harm sea life. The writer expresses that helping to clean up the ocean would be appreciated by both sea creatures and the Earth itself.
Coral Reefs by Kalea
Coral reefs are being harmed by increasing amounts of trash that people are throwing away, as animals are getting sick from eating the trash, but some people are helping by picking up trash, and everyone can help by reducing, reusing and recycling to produce less waste.
Stop Smog by Luke
Air pollution, also known as smog, can harm both plants and animals as it is present in the air we breathe. Smog is dangerous because it can cause illness and even death in people and other living creatures when exposure levels are high. The document warns that air pollution is a serious issue that affects all life on Earth.
Coral Reefs by Ben
Coral reefs are formed by colonies of tiny coral polyps and provide habitat for 25% of ocean animals, but climate change and pollution are destroying coral reefs and threatening many species' homes. Reducing pollution and fossil fuel use can help protect coral reefs for the future.
Saving Sea Turtles
Sea turtles are endangered due to hunting for their eggs, shells, and meat which damages beach and marine ecosystems. Laws are needed to prevent hunting sea turtles to protect sea grass and ecosystems. Individuals can help by not littering, especially cigarettes, and avoiding oil spills to help save endangered sea turtles.
Help the Earth by Recycling
People throw away 50 billion drink cans each year which harms the Earth. Recycling is important because 85% of trash ends up in dumps and 30% of waste is packaging material. Glass can remain in the environment for over 4,000 years, so recycling helps reduce waste and prevents harmful materials from polluting the planet for a long time.
Ocean Pollution
Ocean pollution, especially from plastic, is a serious problem that harms ocean life. Tens of thousands of animals like fish, seabirds, turtles, seals, and other sea mammals die every year from eating plastic or getting tangled in it. As plastic breaks down in the ocean, it releases toxic chemicals that enter the food chain and can harm humans. Individuals can help reduce plastic pollution by using reusable bags, water bottles, and recycling disposable plastics to help protect ocean animals and the environment.
Ocean Pollution
This document discusses various types of ocean pollution such as plastic bags, balloons, and trash that end up in the ocean from beaches and garbage. Sea turtles often mistake plastic pollution for food which can harm them. The document encourages readers to help clean up beaches and oceans by picking up any trash they find and informing parents, and suggests being mindful of pollution both on land and in the ocean to help take care of marine life and the environment.
Natural resources energy
This document discusses natural resources used for energy production. It notes that coal and wood are commonly used but pollute the environment. Coal is described as a black or brown rock that produces carbon dioxide when burned. The document promotes wind power as a better alternative energy source, stating that wind is renewable, non-polluting, inexpensive, and widely available.
Orca's by Ben
Orcas, also known as killer whales, live in the Antarctic Ocean where they hunt fish, walruses, seals, penguins, squid, and sea turtles in packs for food. They can grow very large, weighing over 12,000 pounds.
Caracals by Sasha

Emperor Penguins by Paul
Emperor penguins are large flightless birds that can grow up to 45 inches tall. They primarily eat fish and have predators such as leopards seals. Emperor penguins are black and white and are known for their cool behaviors such as coming in different colors like brown.
Polar Bears by Jack
Polar bears live in the Arctic region and can grow up to 8 feet long and weigh between 900 to 1600 pounds, heavier than a piano. They primarily eat seals as their main food source. Polar bears are excellent swimmers despite their large size.
African Cheetahs by Alexa
African cheetahs live in the savanna and have a carnivorous diet of meat. They grow up to 4 feet in length including their 2.5 foot long tail and enjoy chasing each other in pairs as a form of play.
Sumatran tigers
Sumatran tigers live on the Indonesian island of Sumatra and are carnivorous animals that eat meat. They can grow up to six feet in length and are currently endangered, so conservation efforts are needed to help protect the species.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
