Sustain.

The sustainablity fair at our school today in honor of Earth Day which is on Sunday was awesome. This is the first year they are doing something of this measure. Let's hope it becomes an annual event. There were alot of booths that were around campus.
Some of the highlights include a booth called the Worm Game. Here's how it goes: you wait in line for a paper worm on which has a question about the enviornment. You walk around the sustainability fair building and you look at posters and timelines of fun facts and how long it takes certain things to decompose. I got the question: How long does it take for a cigarrette to decompose? Answer: 40 years. That is a really long time. I think it takes that long because of all the harmful chemicals put into a cigarette. When you figure out the question you get a coffee cup thing that you can re-use over and over again. This is sustainable because it would replace paper cups. Many paper cups. Isn't that neat?
Another thing I thought was pretty cool was a water supply booth. It showed us how "dirty" water can be used for other purposes. In fact, some of the golf course water is reused water.
Our school is taking many measures to become "green-er", including using post consumber paper, stiwching the plastic utensils to biodegradeable ones, etc.
