At 6:56pm on July 29, 2008, earthday78(Mike Davis) said…: i am still interested in collaborating with you on education plans for cigarette litter...please check my quest out..

I am currently in a contest hosted by Timberland with there EarthKeepers site, to be a Change Agent, to help finance a great environmental cause...anyone that is environmentally conscious, please check out my site:

www.changents.com/ResponsibleSmokersAct

then register and "back" my "cause". If i get enough attention i might be able to make this life long dream of mine, come true. I was born on Earth Day of '78 and from about 13 years i have tried to gain interest in someone else to help for this non profit.

My organization hopes to educate on the environmental impact of cigarette litter. But what makes this idea unique, is that i want to collect cigarettes to make cigarette collection facilities out of them. which in turn print educational material on them....in a way a self-sustaining perpetual infrastructure.

Anyone that smokes or just hates cigarette litter or environmental hearted please join me and help make Responsible Smokers Act a reality

I am asking for obvious partners of sponsors, lawyers, accountants,web designers, graphic artist, photographers, environmental and civil servants, please if you think you can offer anything that would solve the problem of cancerous materials being littered by the trillions into everyday surroundings.
I will give anyone a chance to do there part for the Earth

If you have seen the movie Erin Brocovich. the environmental moral of that story is... Sometimes small doses, administered over a long time, makes our bodies absorb the same chemicals as if you where to smoke the original cigarette itself.

* Cigarette pollution cost millions to our public utilities in each state.

* Animals can very easily dies from the ingestion of small amounts of Butts.

* Cigarettes are made from cellulose Acetate, which is a host for the Bioaccumulotoxins, which delivers those thousand of cancerous chemicals to everywhere humans exists, our environment!

This seems to be the decade of GREEN living, i hope this gives me my chance to form a group to make a great impact on the world!!

please re-post this to any Green person or smoker

Indonesia is actually a country on an archipelago consisting of thousands of island. Just like in the US, the rise of water level has worried only some people in Indonesia. Some do not have enough knowledge about global warming or climate change, therefore they are less worried. I am thinking of what would be the best way to provide good and effective environmental education in Indonesia.

Lots of people at school are politically active, so if they saw what their candidate thought about the environment they might like them even more, or change their, or their parents, opinion! We might want to make it more interesting than just a fact table though...

At 12:16am on February 2, 2008, B. Marshall-Jones said…: Our beach erosion has been pretty severe over the few years. We have lost a number of homes and we just recently moved Sankety Head Lighthouse. It seems virtually all of the sophisticated beach erosion techniques have not worked. Mother Nature always has her way. The last earth day I showed pictures of what our island would look like with a small 10 sea level rise... we would loose almost half the island... not a fun picture. Focusing on solutions, one person at a time we can all make a difference though.

At 9:57am on January 16, 2008, Salma said…: Yes yes!! And...it's not my idea. It's Sabel's idea that I really like. :D yes yes I love my picture too!! I am not really sure where I got it from though...I just found it on my computer.

At 12:42pm on January 14, 2008, Earth Day Network said…: Hello, Mr. Levenberg-Engel. I just wanted to thank you for using the site to get your students involved.It's a great way to use the resources we have here, and I'm certain other teachers will learn from your example.

Regarding Salma's comment below, "Sabel suggested that we should research all the candidates for president on their views of environmental action and stuff and stuff!! I really want to do that!! What do you think??!!" personally, I think the idea goes beyond who will be our next President. Not only students, but people in general would benefit by knowing where all of their elected representatives stood on environmental issues, because only by being an informed electorate can we ensure that our representatives will uphold our values.

Thanks again for being here!

I think you might like it, http://muttscomics.com/ I did look up the Siberian tiger though. That's horrible. What do they expect a tiger to do when provoked?

At 11:57am on January 13, 2008, Salma said…: Mr. Levenberg!!! Umm...Sabel suggested that we should research all the candidates for president on their views of environmental action and stuff and stuff!! I really want to do that!! What do you think??!!
