  Climate change is causing a lot of problems. People cut trees a lot and it causes less oxygen. We need to stop climate change by stopping polluting the earth. For example, stop gases which means you can stop burning coal and other fossil fuels. Around the world, there are forest fires that kill animals and their habitat.  Let's think “ But does it make any difference to me ”. It makes a big difference even if you do one tiny thing. That tiny thing can turn into a big thing. Let's help our earth by stopping climate crises even if it’s little.

  “Morning everyone,” said Mrs. Kate. The class stood up “ good morning Mrs. Kate”. Class started as soon as we sat,  “ Remember class we’re having the test today ”. The class expression changed, my expression changed too. We all got a piece of paper. The time started, forty minutes on the clock, I thought to myself “So what am I going to write on this page”.    Three more minutes, I was sweating, my hands were shaking. Suddenly, Beep beep I woke up it was just a nightmare. “ Sweetie wake up, you're going to be late for your test” “ Oh no, not again”.

  Carbon is one of the 118 elements that make our planet, it is used to make coral & shellfish then gets turned into limestone. Carbon is in every life form like rocks and soil, hummus has 70% carbon in it. Carbon can form with other atoms to make something new e.g Co2. Carbon can be found in millions of different forms e.g coal, oil, diamonds, and carbon dioxide  (Co2). What is global warming? Burning fossil fuels and C02 causes global warming, global climate change. Since the industrial revolution, humans have been burning fossil fuels e.g coal, wood, gas, and oil. Co2 and greenhouse gasses cause climate change by trapping heat. It causes air pollution and increases wildfires. What are carbon sinks? Well, it is a system that absorbs more carbon than it releases. There are three main carbon sinks: forests, oceans, and soil. Sinks absorb carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere but then the soil gets the carbon dioxide when the tree dies. The first sink is. Forest sinks: During photosy

  “ Amy hurry we got to go” “ Just a moment mum I’m almost ready” Today was the day of our holiday vacation. I was so excited that I almost packed everything. All my things were ready. I was just having trouble carrying it. “ Dad can you help me” “ Okey sweety I’ll be right there” After all the hard work of lifting and packing, we finally hit the road. The temperature was boiling hot, I was melting like a melted ice-block. I jumped to the back and opened the biggest window that was near me. We didn’t take our car, we rented a van which literally only had three windows. I slowly started to shut my eyes, when it was shut I was deeply asleep. Ding ding ding  “ welcome abroad “ My eyes opened wide, we were driving into the ship. As we were driving in I sat up and waved to the man who was welcoming us on board. We were now inside the ship and were ready to get to our room. I waited as my parents were getting a room for us, as I was waiting quietly I watched the people walk past me. My pare

  It was a rainy day and I was in the lounge watching tv. I was watching carefully at my brother staring at my pet turtle in his bowl. I glared back at my movie in surprise. It was almost finished.  A while later I went to get a drink in the kitchen, when I got back I froze. My eyes were on my turtle’s bowl. It was empty and my turtle was gone. I looked down to see my little brother playing next to my turtle’s bowl. I let out the anger I had in me and I started shouting at my brother. But it wasn’t for long because my mum walked in and stopped me. My mum talked to me about my turtle and how I should have taken care of it more carefully, in my head I was thinking about how scared the turtle would be. The sun was up and I was eating sausages for breakfast. But I had to go to the toilet. I came back from the toilet and on the table where my empty plate was. I quickly noticed that my little brother next to my seat was chewing on food. I didn’t hesitate, I stomped towards him in anger. When

       Turangawaewae I glanced down feeling the cold breeze flow past me. The view in front of me was magnificent.  I watched the waves wash the sand in . The smell of the sizzling sausages was the best. The hearing of kids playing in the sand felt calming.   I layed down feeling the heat of the sun on me . I knew this was the place. I placed myself on the soft sand for a while then I stood up to see that the sizzling sausages were almost ready. The flavor of the sausages was delicious .  I feast both eyes on the horizon.  Mission bay was where I stood, where I felt welcomed home.  I said my last goodbyes before I left.  So long Mission bay I say watching it become much smaller as we drive away.
