=toc individual project = The cars I chosen for this project is the 2010 Chevy Camaro and the 2010 Toyota Prius. The reason why I chose these cars is because they are the newest and my opinion good-looking cars. The 2010 Chevy Camaro has a V8 or V6 engine. With the standard V6 engine it gets 29 miles per gallon on the highway and 18 miles per gallon in the city. The reason why this car takes so much gas is because it is not aerodynamic and it uses a lot of horsepower to move it. The Toyota Prius gets 51 miles per gallon in the city and 48mpg on the highway. The reason for this is because it has hardly any horsepower and it is a small car therefore it doesn’t use that much fuel to move. Since it is small it is also aerodynamic therefore using less gas and making a better atmosphere for us all. In conclusion the better choice of vehicle would be the Toyota. My dad who is a mechanic told me that you don’t have to by a newer vehicle or hybrid to save on gas. You need to find one that is small and aerodynamic. I got my information from these websites and my dad. [] []

=Oil is more than energy= In the following sentences are the five concerns that were expressed in the Oil Dependence Is a Dangerous Habit article. The first concern that is found was that rising oil imports widened our deficit. Burning oil cause us problems with global warming. Another problem is that our demand on foreign oil rises up the oil prices on the global market. The next problem would be that our oil dependence is increasing and it will be harder to satisfy our need to use it and obtain it. The last concern I saw in the article was that our oil imports are from dangerous and unstable countries. Those are the concerns that I found expressed in the article. In my own opinion I completely agree with these statements. I mean look around oil and gas prices are going up all the time because of the imports in foreign countries. The global warming thing I don’t agree with though I really never have because my one science teacher told me when he was young it was global cooling.

Below is were I got my resources from [] and from my 9th grade biology teacher Mr. Lenkard. =Bug killer=

Essay
Have you ever wanted to change the way your school uses their resources? Do you see teacher constantly wasting resources? Is there any way you would like to change to better our environment? One problem that I have identified in this school is the laptops. Why use the books when we could use the online version? I mean we don’t use them enough in the school and we got books to carry around all the time. It is just a pain in the butt to carry something around all day and not use it. A solution to this problem would be that we could use the online version of the books. If the school were to do this it would save on trees and it would cut down on the trash we use. It would also help out on the number of things we would have to carry. Another good thing that would come from this would be that less people would be late to class because they wouldn’t have to stop at their locker. Another problem would be if teachers are not in the room when they need to turn off the lights. This would save a lot of electricity. It would also reduce the amount of money the school would have to pay on bills. I found that other schools like Jeff Tech has a worm-composting program. What they do is feed these worms paper and left of scraps from the cafeteria and the worms make worm wonder. Worm wonder is a good fertilizer that helps plants grow. Along with this worm and its wonder other schools like Jeff Tech has its own garden. I think if Punxsutawney had these things we would save a lot of our resources. I got my resources from the survey and using Jeff Tech website.

Land stand Survey
I believe that people should have the right to live were ever they want. I also agree with the results of the survey about setting aside land for wildlife habitat should be a priority. I strongly disagree that more of our tax money should be use on improving city transportation when they’re our things in our urban areas that need improvement such as roads. That concludes my opinion on the survey.
