Morning tales of winter
The morning Sun stood aloft, Waving it's dew-bespangled wings; With vermile cheek and whisper soft, Wooing the tardy winter morn'.
Our Future: Children and Technology
The pandemic has shown us all how dependent we are in various areas of our lives, how vulnerable our society is and how baffled we are if we can’t plan ahead. The uncertainty with which we live today is challenging for everyone because no-one knows what the future will hold. But there are two aspects that will definitely be a part of our future and that will influence it dramatically: children and technology. It goes without saying that we must provide children with opportunities to learn how to use technical devices and the internet which will accompany them throughout their lives. Apart from...
On the frontlines of climate change in Dominica
endangered polar bears
Due to centuries of hunting practices and the destabilization of arctic habitats, there have been growing concerns about the future survival of polar bears. While hunting has long been an issue, global warming has done a number on polar bears' habitats in recent years, dramatically shrinking the polar bear population worldwide. In fact, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) estimates that there are only 22,000 to 31,000 polar bears left in the world. Polar bears rely heavily on sea ice for traveling, hunting, resting, mating and, in some areas, maternal dens. But because of ongoing and potential loss...
Innovate for a better future

I am going to discuss about the major threats and negative impacts of our environment due to technology. The threats are as follows: Depletion of our natural resources causing an ecological imbalance Global warming Environmental pollution – water, air, land and so on There are many living organisms that are becoming endangered and extinct due to the result of technology. The natural habitats of the wildlife is being lost as...
The Power of a New Generation
In a world full of problems that need to be solved, the next generation is my hope. A generation of empowered and empathetic young people are the solution ultimately, and through uniting together there is a real chance of solving the problems that plague the modern world. From climate change to marine conservation, our generation has an enormous untapped potential. With each individual having a unique set of skills and experiences, there is a real chance for problems to be solved. By giving ourselves a voice we are investing in the future, and believing in a better future. We are the...

Dear Mister Presidents
Hello, My name is Noemie also know as Noemie Tahiti. I am a young emerging artist (13 y.o) from French Polynesia located in the middle of Pacific ocean. I participated at the show The Voice Kids 2020 in France. Beside singing, playing the ukulele and going to school, I always felt very concerned about environment and the fact that very shortly climate change will have desastrous consequences for all of us. A couple months ago I asked my parents to work together on a song to urge world leaders to step up their climate actions and commitments. It is the 5th anniversary of the 2015 Paris...
Sustainability and I
Stop the Destruction!
Us people are ruining our lives We are making the earth so hot It's basically starting to rot If we don't change our attitude People will blame everyone But they know they are ashamed Ashamed from their actions that made this happen The ozone layer is slowly breaking due to our fires That we created with some laughter Thinking it won’t hurt. Eventually, if we don't stop we will look back Look back at what we have done What do you think the trees would say? They would say stop, please Stop these actions Or else you won’t be able to breathe Without us you're nothing And all you’ll have would be...
Deforestation
As the leaves caught the wind in the tree of the willow, The bed of grass swayed, soft as a pillow, I gazed out into the sky, gripping me in its safe hold, As the darkening fabric became embroidered in beads of gold. The peaceful scene was ripped apart before my eyes, As a new species came to rise, The humans tore everything I knew down, Mother Nature was beginning to drown. The built, they conquered, The environment was tortured, I couldn’t fight it, Watching the trees being ignited. We must unite, It is nature’s right, If we work together, Nature can live on forever. So make your posters...
Technology Is Helping Us Reach the Stars… and Beyond
On July 20th, 1969, Neil Armstrong landed on the moon and achieved the impossible - well, what seemed impossible at the time. United States President John F. Kennedy initiated the Apollo Program in May 1961, as he dreamed of the US successfully landing a man on the moon with a safe return. The Apollo Program had started almost from ground-zero. Their funds were very miniscule compared to the cost of manufacturing the necessary space equipment and technology - monitors, space suits, the shuttles themselves, and more. Scientists had minimal knowledge of the moon (and space in general) and the...
Importance of clean water
The world needs to know that it is very hard for countries to access clean water and that everyone should appreciate that they might access clean water. Clean water is important for people's daily lives because it lets them drink water, keep good hygiene and plant crops, and if you clean drink or plant with unsanitized water it could lead to diseases which could be harmful. 2.2 billion people around the world can't access clean water, but thankfully global organizations like WHO have made programs like The Joint Monitoring Programme report there are now 785 million people who don't have access...
Learning About SDG #11!
This is my skit about SDG #11 that I have done exclusively for school work where the only quality parts in the video are the script and educational side.
Why technology should not always do the talking
Can you think of a world without the internet, smartphones, iPads, or perhaps the laptop that you’re currently working on? What if we had been hit by this pandemic somewhere during the 90s when meetings over the cloud and Twitter live updates weren’t there to come to our rescue? Sounds beyond imagination? Well, that’s exactly where tech has made us land! The world is now at our fingertips! From mopping up our favorite bruschetta to solving compound calculations, all we have to do is perhaps get online! We are privileged indeed, but is our ability to ponder over a question, comprehend word...
The Power of Small Things
The power of small things is a remarkable one. Recently, I went to pick up litter at my local canal with my family, and although this was a small action it made a huge difference not only to us but to those in our community. Doing small things still shows initiative and compassion. Doing small things is the right thing to do, because no one is too small to make a difference. With that being said, we spent hours picking cans and bottles so they wouldn’t go into the canal and harm the ducks, swans and marine life. Small things show an element of selflessness, and selfless actions will always...

We need climate justice
Every day when we wake up we think about our future, about our dreams and our life goals, but unfortunately, none of that will ever happen without a safe planet. We are living knowing that our future is in danger, that our planet is not a safe place anymore. The climate change is not an issues for the next years, is something we must solve now. There is no time to waste, because while we wait, there is animals that are dying, there is places that are on fire and there is seas that do not have water anymore. So if you are seeing this please share and try to do something good for the environment...
