Food Rescue Mission
November 5, 2017
Hi I’m a Helping Ninja. Today I read online about a place that recycles food! They collect donated left over food that is not used – Food Rescue helps more than 200 caring agencies and 200 restaurants, and 500 schools. That is a lot of saved food! I want to help by sharing about it. I have pictures from their website for you to see and a video about what they do.

Learning About Climate Change
November 2, 2027
Hi -Im a Helping Ninja! One day a couple weeks ago at our Recycle Club at school, we had a professor come and talk about Climate Change. I had heard about it before last year in the third grade. I was in a Hurricane Special Group last year and I liked it. I like learning about severe weather everything about it except being in it! We learned that recycling causes less climate change. We learned what we could recycle and couldn’t. We also learned that if we all don’t start pitching in their might be a new ice age could come. I am not really worried about it yet, because there is no one on the news every day saying, “Hey, this is going happen!” But, if the the professor who is a scientist came then maybe it is really possible that this could happen and thats why the professor came to talk about it. I did like the presentation because it was interesting. I think its important that we don’t pollute because it is bad for the world.

Recycle Club at School
November 2, 2017
Hi Im a Helping Ninja. I am in a Recycle Club at College Wood Elementary. I like being creative and our club is building a milk carton sculpture for MadebyMilk contest. We collected over 1000 of used milk cartons at school in our cafeteria. We are trying to build a pegasus out of them. We had to rinse them and dry them and then glue and tape them together. Some of the cartons we flattened to make the wings. I think recycling is important because it helps the world.
