We are finally here with our final post and reflection on our progress as Team Gaia. We definitely learned a lot working on this topic and learned that if we want a bright and healthy future for the next generations we NEED to take action and start finding healthy ways to co exist on earth as far as waste goes. Seeing how we currently have 5 trillion plastic waste in the ocean was eye opening and shows how its OUR responsibility to recycle and reuse whatever we have or at least change our lifestyle waste to not produce so much pollution. We had fun learning everything we did and despiteĀ a few bumps in the road we came together and had an awesome presentation. We especially enjoyed making the Recycling video skit which will be posted on the Penn State Berks site once its all finished. Ultimately we can all do a little something to help make the environment and our oceans healthier. Team Gaia out!

Earth Day with Glenside Elementary Students!
Our time last Friday on Earth day with the kids was awesome! Team Gaia came and made a impact with these 5th graders who were awesome to spend most of the day with. Joseph came in early and helped Professor Kazempour set up the room for the students arrival and activities for the day. Gabriel came in as the activities got started and help make teams and with the start of the activities which were centered how each individual kid can have a positive impact on the environment. I came in half way through the day and helped the kids with the rest of the activities one involved painting the kids hands and creating the world. I helped with the clean up while Joseph went on tour with the kids. Overall it was really fun and good learning experience for everyone involved especially the kids as Professor Kazempour taught them how to recycle properly. Go Team Gaia!!
