The Earth's In Our Hands

Hey Kids what is Pollution? Is it stinky stuff? Is it muck? Is it poison? Yes, it is all those things... and much, much more. You can see some types of pollution, like smoke but there is so much of it that you do not even know is there. You cannot smell it, hear it, or feel it. Yet you're eating it and drinking it and breathing it most of the time. And what is worse is that all this muck affects all other forms of life on Earth too. You can find pollution made by people just about everywhere on the planet. Even remote places in the middle of the dessert to the cold waters of the Antarctic are badly polluted by nasty chemicals made by people. The Polar bears, whales and seals have poisonous chemicals made by people in their bodies. These nasty things kill many animals and make others sick -- including penguins in the Antarctic. They also kill people and make them ill too. There's nowhere on the planet left with no pollution; not even the bottom of the sea or high up in the air. This is bad news and I'm very sad about it. Look at how beautiful the ocean can be. Wouldn't it be nice if your children could enjoy it too? I think we can all make a difference though. There is a cool Ravensburger jigsaw puzzle at the top of the page that says it all. The name of the puzzle is " The Earth's In Our Hands ". Ravensburger puzzles are the best puzzles out there and by putting together one of these puzzles, framing it and putting it on your wall, you can show your support for our earth. Will you do something today to make the world a better place?
