=Energy Essay=

There are many different problems in the Punxsutawney are school district that is resulting in many different energy wastes. I think that the biggest energy waste in the school district is the way we transport the students back and forth to and from school. I do believe that there are more efficient ways to transport students than to waste fuel by the same bus going down the same street as the other buses.

During the day, many different busses travel on the same roadway minutes after each other. Some of the students could walk to school, due to the fact that much of the population in the school lives in the borough of punxsy. For the students that live outside of the borough, the transportation services need to find a more efficient way to transport more students with the same equipment in a more efficient way. Many different school districts are taking action because the are trying to go green. It is not easy to find other ways to do the same things that you have been doing for many years.

Some more efficent ways may be to run a shuttle for the kids in town that are to lazy to walk for the transportation act and some people could use this for there health.

This is one of the main reasons why the school districts are wasting so much energy. When you transport students and the same bus goes down the same street, minute by minute, someone is having some waste somewhere and we need to find an alternative way to change these habits.

=Land Stand Survey Results.= I think the overall land use throughout the U.S. is agriculture. The reason why I think that we should use agriculture throughout the U.S. is because lots of people have to eat and more and more people are being brought into the world each day. Along with more and more people, the people have to make a living some how and some people like to farm. This is the reason why I think we should use agriculture throughout the U.S.
