i found that i got a 90 on the physics test on momentum and also a 94 on the test on transcendentalism and into the wild on thursday on last week. also i tend to know more about global warming and it helped me write the essay in ap english on global warming and the steps we can take to reduce it by using less fossil fuels such as petroleum and natural gas and planting more trees for oxygen. the u.s and australia refused to sign the kyoto protocol to eliminate greenhouse gas because they are quite industrial prowess in the global economy. i used facts from chemistry, physics, history (industrial revolution) and biology to support my claim that global warming is an environmental issue that needs to be addressed however, we must also take into consideration the amount of time spent, the resources we have and the money we have. we can’t have 100% in pollution-free because we will still have waste and still need to use fuel cars, but we should limit our use and go more toward biodegradable products as to protect our health and the biodiversity of our wildlife since animals experiencing global warming cannot adapt to an early spring and our ecosystem in interconnected. dave was great and he also helped me with the effects of wwii on the ottoman empire in ap world history and also he helped me plan some of my essay ideas. i feel happy b/c i think i did better than andrew and also i mentioned the fact that greenhouse gases methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (Co2) are natural to the earth’s atmosphere, part of the ozone layer. they greenhouse gases are absorbed into the atmosphere as energy and they are turned to heat keeping the planet warm. however too much greenhouse gas can provide high temperatures that cause the the ocean temperatures to rise generate more floods. i also mentioned the fact that the combustion in the cars causes an exhaust to spill out of the car’s end emitting carbon monoxide which cause air pollution. dave also helped me understand physics honors more as well. i think andrew is a bit mad at me for being smarter at him in science, i feel bad for dave because i got a better grade than him on the ap english test last thursday and we often study together. yet, dave is a great guy, he has a great sense of humor and still continues to encourage me to do well. he is quite laid back and has sense of self-confidence and positive enthusiasm that makes him fun to be around. my lunch buddy (steve) is quite fun to be around, he was telling me about this fun project in pre-calc honors where he had to make a book on ch. 6 vocabulary of trigonometric functions and the unit circle and decorate it. we also quizzed each other on the unit circle as well. i feel bad for my special friend as he seems to be jealous of my other guy friends and often times feels left out. i wish there was a way to make him feel as if he were part of the group.
