It is better not to leave home Also not to go to places where there are many people because you do not know if they are sick we also have to wash our hands after touching something dirty or an electronic because the electronics have viruses.

Conocemos que los emisiones globales han reducido mucho en las \u00faltimas semanas porque estamos en cuarentena. Pero eso no es una soluci\u00f3n permanente.<br \/>\nDe acuerdo con una reporte de los Naciones Unidos, emisiones globales casi siempre aumentan despu\u00e9s de crisis econ\u00f3micas como este. Pero, la cosa es, que no podemos tener m\u00e1s aumentos r\u00e1pidos en emisiones. No tenemos mucho m\u00e1s tiempo. Necesitamos hacer algo ahora antes de que sea demasiado tarde porque ser\u00e1n da\u00f1o irreversible a la clima s\u00ed no. Un gran ejemplo de cu\u00e1ndo emisiones aumentaron despu\u00e9s de un crisis econ\u00f3mico es el 2008 recesi\u00f3n. En 2009 los emisiones solo fueron 8.6 billion montones. Pero solo un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s, en 2010, \u00a1los emisiones aumentaron a 9.1 billion montones! Eso fue un nuevo r\u00e9cord y la mayor cantidad de emisiones en historia. Muchos expertos dicen que este crisis ser\u00e1 mucho m\u00e1s perjudicial de cualquier otro en el pasado, aparte del Gran Depresi\u00f3n, y despu\u00e9s ser\u00e1 un gran aumento de emisiones. Pero hay esperanza para nosotros. Tenemos el poder para cambiar nuestra econom\u00eda. No ser\u00e1 f\u00e1cil, y no hay un soluci\u00f3n simple.

We know that a clean climate is very important for us. We know that climate change is real. We know that global emissions have reduced greatly in the past weeks because we are in quarantine. But that is not a permanent solution.<br \/>\nAccording to a report by the United Nations, global emissions almost always increase after an economic crash like this. But, the thing is, we can\u2019t have another increase in emissions. We don\u2019t have much time left. We need to do something now before it is too late because there will be irreversible damage to the climate if not. A great example of when emissions spiked after an economic crash is the 2008 recession. In 2009 emissions were only at about 8.6 billions tons. But only one year later, emissions spiked to 9.1 billion tons! That was a new record and the most emissions in history. Many experts say that this crisis will be much more detrimental than any other in history, apart from the Great Depression, and after, there will be massive growth in emissions. But, there is hope for us. We have the power to transform our economy. It won\u2019t be easy, and there is no simple solution. Renewable energy, new infrastructure, efficient transportation, and more. That&#8217;s just a start.<br \/>\nNow is the time. We can\u2019t put it further and further back on the list of things we need to do. If not now, when? We know that this is a major problem with very complicated answers, but if we don\u2019t act now, then those answers will just get more complicated.

We need to help those who cannot help themselves so that everyone can help. Cars, trucks and buses are more than 50% of the air pollution in the United States. Having jobs that can be at home at home, using more bicycles or walking, and if the trip is too long, use public transportation. What we can do is help the planet. To do that, we need to help not to use a lot of plastic and garbage. Also use what we have and not to waste. We have to clean what we did to the ocean and land. Not use so many cars and factories.<\/p>\n<p>We need to help the planet because we put it in danger. Because if we don&#8217;t help, we won&#8217;t have a planet anymore.The air is going to kill everything because it is very toxic, and the ocean is going to have so much garbage that the animals cannot see or breathe.

I would Like to share my opinion of global warming and how this pandemic has presented a rare chance.<\/p>\n<p>During this quarantine we have a rare opportunity. We can fix our mistakes and make the environment better. I am only talking about an idea right now, but all together we can make a change.<\/p>\n<p>The percent of contaminated air has gone down more than 50 percent in some places. Polluted air kills 7 million people around the world each year. People that live in areas with contaminated air have a higher potential of dying from Covid-19, or other future diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Cheap gas is producing mountains of plastic waste. Before the pandemic recycling industries were having trouble making enough money. To make financial sense, recycling companies need to make more money selling recycled material than it takes to gather and process these materials. Because of the lowered prices in gas, it is less money for recycling industries to buy non-recycled bottles than the recycled ones. Before quarantine there was a small percent of people and companies recycling and now there are none.<\/p>\n<p>As we move to new phases people are going to try and make up for all the lost work during the pandemic, and polluted air levels will rise greatly. We are no longer living in the same conditions. There will be a large number of people trying to make life the same as it was before Coronavirus, but there is no time to dream of the past and try.

Gracias al distanciamiento social y las restricciones de viaje, muchas personas no vuelan y han reducido dr\u00e1sticamente la cantidad de tiempo que pasan en los autom\u00f3viles lo cual lanza di\u00f3xido de nitr\u00f3geno un contaminante hecho por combustibles f\u00f3siles. Desafortunadamente, los efectos de la reducci\u00f3n en las emisiones de gases son dudosos por lo cual se busca un remedio para el virus.<\/p>\n<p>En conclusi\u00f3n, el virus pasara y la industria volver\u00e1 a crecer por lo cual la gente volver\u00e1 a su rutina de usar los veh\u00edculos. El uso de bicicletas y autobuses ayudar\u00e1 a reducir la contaminaci\u00f3n que ponemos en nuestro mundo para que podamos vivir en un buen ambiente nuevamente. El distanciamiento social deber\u00eda ser puesto en pr\u00e1ctica por nuestra salud y la salud de otros.<\/p>\n<p>Atentamente,<br \/>\nKamila Esparza<br \/>\n12 a\u00f1os<br \/>\nEstudiante, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Ketchum, ID 5\/9\/20<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Effects of contamination<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nEditor of the Wood River Weekly,<\/p>\n<p>The coronavirus has impacted the environment and people in an impressive way.<\/p>\n<p>Before coronavirus appeared, contamination was a huge problem in this world and it continues to do so. A decrease in traffic and industrial activity has caused a temporary decrease in pollution. Air quality in cities around the world has been greatly improved by the pandemic that no one expected, however we wanted. Thanks to social distancing and travel restrictions, many people do not fly and have dramatically reduced the amount of time they spend in cars, which releases nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant made by fossil fuels. Unfortunately, the effects of reduced gas emissions are dubious, so a remedy for the virus is sought.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the virus will pass and the industry will grow again, so people will return to their routine of using vehicles. Using bicycles and buses will help reduce the pollution we put into our world so that we can live in a good environment again. Social distancing should be put into practice for our health and the health of others.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<br \/>\nKamila Esparza<br \/>\n12 years<br \/>\nStudent, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Editor del Wood River Weekly,<\/p>\n<p>Durante la cuarentena, las cantidades de contaminaci\u00f3n del aire han disminuido en las grandes ciudades. Esto se debe a que las personas conducen menos y se quedan en casa. Creo que podemos seguir haciendo esto y seguir reduciendo la contaminaci\u00f3n despu\u00e9s de la cuarentena. Creo que ahora que la gente ve cu\u00e1nta contaminaci\u00f3n hay, se dar\u00e1 cuenta de lo contaminada que estaba la Tierra antes.<\/p>\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de la cuarentena, no me refiero a no viajar a lugares y no ir en autom\u00f3vil. Me refiero a tomar su bicicleta o caminar cuando sea posible.N no necesita conducir dos cuadras hasta la casa de su amigo o el metro. No todos tienen que hacerlo. Incluso si una peque\u00f1a porci\u00f3n de personas lo hiciera, marcar\u00eda una gran diferencia. Tenemos que difundir esto porque solo las personas en la ciudad que notaron este cambio. Si vives en un pueblo peque\u00f1o o en cualquier lugar fuera de una ciudad bastante grande, realmente no notar\u00e1s ninguna diferencia. Hay beneficios de no usar su autom\u00f3vil tanto como hace ejercicio, no tiene que pagar por el combustible y ayuda al medio ambiente.<\/p>\n<p>Despu\u00e9s de que esto termine, solo trate de recordar qu\u00e9 poca contaminaci\u00f3n hubo durante la cuarentena y ande en bicicleta en m\u00e1s lugares<\/p>\n<p>Atentamente<br \/>\nLevi Renner<br \/>\n11 a\u00f1os<br \/>\nEstudiante, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p>Editor of the Wood River Weekly,<\/p>\n<p>During quarantine, the amounts of air pollution have decreased in large cities. This is because people drive less and stay home. I think we can continue to do this and continue to reduce pollution after quarantine. I think now that people see how much pollution there is, they will realize how polluted the Earth was before.<\/p>\n<p>After quarantine, I don&#8217;t mean not traveling to places and not driving. I mean take your bike or walk when possible. you don&#8217;t need to drive two blocks to your friend&#8217;s house or the subway. Not everyone has to. Even if a small portion of people did, it would make a big difference. We have to spread this because only the people in the city who noticed this change. If you live in a small town or anywhere outside of a fairly large city, you really won&#8217;t notice any difference. There are benefits to not using your car as much as you exercise, you don&#8217;t have to pay for fuel, and it helps the environment.<\/p>\n<p>After this is over, just try to remember how little contamination there was during the quarantine, and bike more places.<\/p>\n<p>From<br \/>\nLevi Renner<br \/>\n11 years<br \/>\nStudent, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\nHailey, Idaho 16 de mayo del 2020<\/p>\n<p><strong>El aire durante COVID y que podemos hacer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Editor del Wood River Weekly<\/p>\n<p>Todos sabemos que el COVID no es bueno para los ser humanos porque est\u00e1 causando muchas problemas pero lo que est\u00e1 pasando ahora si es bueno para el ambiente. En este momento el COVID es un beneficio para los aires y otras cosas. Desde que el COVID empezaba a afectarnos, lentamente los aires en ciudades grandes y en muchas m\u00e1s partes del mundo se est\u00e1n aclarando. Esto esta pasando porque en muchas ciudades como Hong Kong han parado de usar las factor\u00edas hasta qu\u00e9 cosas se mejoren. Est\u00e1 ayudando por mucho porque factor\u00edas producen mucho humo y contaminan el aire. Tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1 pasando porque muchas personas no est\u00e1n saliendo y no usan sus carros que producen humo antes. Aunque los aires no son tan contaminados ahora muchas personas piensan que cuando el COVID se vaya, todo se va a ir patras a lo normal con los aires contaminados otra vez y no ser\u00e1n claros. A mi me gustar\u00eda que los aires no ser\u00edan tan contaminados como antes del COVID pero que sean m\u00e1s limpios. Podemos ayudar por no producir tanto humo como reducir cuantos tiempos est\u00e1n en un carro y no usarlo tanto, No quemar materiales como en la Amazon\u00eda est\u00e1n quemando muchos \u00e1rboles que produce humo. Si hacemos estas cosas y tratamos de tener un cambio con el ambiente seria mas bueno para nosotros y el ambiente.<\/p>\n<p>Gracias por leer mi letra, me gustar\u00eda mejorar el ambiente y creo que si podemos lograr a aclarar los aires despu\u00e9s del COVID, con su ayuda creo que lo podemos lograr<\/p>\n<p>Atentamente,<\/p>\n<p>Miley Vvilcapoma<br \/>\n6th grade<br \/>\nEstudiante, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Hailey, Idaho May 16, 2020<\/p>\n<p><strong>The air during COVID and what we can do<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wood River Weekly Editor<\/p>\n<p>We all know that COVID is not good for humans because it is causing many problems, but what is happening now is good for the environment. At this time, COVID is a benefit for the air and other things. Since COVID began to affect us, the airs in large cities and in many more parts of the world are slowly clearing up. This is happening because in many cities like Hong Kong they have stopped using the factories until things are improved. It is helping a lot because factories produce a lot of smoke and pollute the air. It is also happening because many people are not going out and don&#8217;t use their smoke-producing cars before. Although the airs are not so polluted, many people now think that when COVID leaves, everything will go way back to normal with the polluted airs again and they will not be clear. I would like that the air would not be as polluted as before COVID but that they are cleaner. We can help by not producing as much smoke as reducing how many times they are in a car and not using it as much. Do not burn materials as in the Amazon they are burning many trees that produce smoke. If we do these things and try to have a change with the environment it would be better for us and the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for reading my lyrics, I would like to improve the environment and I think that if we can manage to clear the air after COVID, with your help I think we can do it<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Miley Vilcapoma<br \/>\n6th grade<br \/>\nStudent, Wood River Middle School<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\nHailey, Idaho a 10 de Mayo del 2020<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contamination Ambiente<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Editor del Wood River Weekly,<\/p>\n<p>El prop\u00f3sito de la cara es informar a la gente que podemos hacer algo para resolver la contamination y el calentamiento global en el mundo.Todav\u00eda hay muchas posibilidad si nos unimos.
