In a few of my blogs, I veered off towards keeping wild animals in captivity. While these weren't directly related to environmental defense, animals also need the aid of conservation. Habitat destruction and capturing animals from their natural habitat has pushed certain species to extinction, and others aren't far from it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Environmental Defense: Great move, Scholastic, but aren’t you six books late?
http://jessiesbox.blogspot.com/2007/04/great-move-scholastic-but-arent-you-six.html
Great move, Scholastic, but aren’t you six books late? I am proud to announce the seventh Harry Potter book, The Deathly Hallows, is being printed on FSC. Approved paper that consists of at least 30% post-consumer waste. According to Oanda.com, a currency conversion website, it would actually cost less to purchase it there! And if you’re worried about shipping, Amazon.com (US and Canada) offer the seventh book with free super saver shipping! You're right- this is a definite step in the right direction...

I got a little carried away on this post, but I think I got my point across.). Six years ago, I was vacationing with my family in Atlantic City. I was walking down the boardwalk and spotted an aquarium in one of the shops. I looked into it and saw about thirty small green lizards. They were absolutely adorable. I really want to save one of these lizards! Can I, Mom! Today, I’m the proud owner of a four foot lizard, whose enclosure takes up half a room. So what’s the point? A lot of people get suckered in...

Environmental Defense: We're Toast!
http://jessiesbox.blogspot.com/2007/05/were-toast.html
Last week I rented “An Inconvenient Truth”,. Al Gore’s movie on global warming. It was an enjoyable movie, and I’d recommend you see it if you haven’t already. Global warming has become a topic of great discussion in the past decade, and it doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere. I’m absolutely sure we’ll be hearing more and more about it in the coming years. I’m convinced that global warming is a real issue and that something needs to be done about it. Solar, Wind, Tidal Power. Turn down the thermostat.

The world's oceans are home to millions of species. Mammals, fish, invertabrates, and many other animals live near beaches, coral reefs, deep sea, and out in the open ocean. Pollution poses a major threat to these animals. The ocean is subject to pollution from beach-goers, fisherman, cruise ships, oil rigs, and runoff from rivers and streams. Both are working towards eliminating ocean pollution. Still more laws must be made (and enforced! Last week I rented “An Inconvenient Truth”,. Global warming has b...

Just wanted to give an update on my growing pile of items to be recycled! I got lucky enough to visit my brother after one of his weekend get-togethers. I gathered 32 aluminum cans from his apartment, and then 14 more from my house, for a total of 46 aluminum cans to be recycled. Six 750 ml glass bottles and two 1 liter bottles that had been accumulating in one of my kitchen cabinets. Approximately 6.5 pounds of paper products, mainly newspaper, that were hiding throughout my living room and bedroom.

Choosing a Pet: Captive VS Wild Caught. When you’re browsing the Puppies for. Through the pet store window, chances are very slim that the puppy you set your eyes on was plucked from its natural habitat in the forests of. And shoved in a box with hundreds of other puppies, then shipped to a pet store near you. In fact, that example is completely outrageous. One thing that often goes unnoticed is where these exotic pets come from. Captive bred animals are by far the better choice for people interested in ...
