Our planet is sad Maddy said Jake nodded Our planet is dirty and messy Maddy sighed Our planet needs a new idea
In school Maddy and Jake had learned about the earth’s problems Plastic bottles and garbage washing ashore along the oceans littering the coastlines Lakes and rivers overflowing with trash and oil
Farms use too much fertilizer to grow the same crops year after year exhausting the hardworking soil The air is filled with pollution from cars and trucks that run on gasoline
The land hurts from drilling and mining for more oil which is turned into more gasoline Animals get sick from the garbage the fertilizers and the pollution
