How does our human interaction support or hinder our environment?

People can hurt animals by littering. Littering can hurt animals and our city. If you litter animals can eat the garbage and die. If no one litters, animals won't die; and our city will be clean. 
-Jordan C., Ms. Digiacomo's Class

People can litter and animals can eat it and die. People can cut down trees, and we lose oxygen. People kill sea life by pouring oil in the sea. That is how people can hinder our environment.

 Our human interaction supports our environment whenever some people pick up others' litter so an animal doesn't confuse it for its own food. Also, others help by riding a bike or walking instead of taking a car! The car puts a horrible gas into the air. So, perhaps you need to take a bike or just walk.

 And some people just trash our planet or environment. They hinder our earth by littering and making probably hundreds of animals die every day or second! And some people take cars and ruin our earth! Also, they put the horrible gas in the air! Well, that's all for now, good bye. 
-Tanaya R., Ms. Sarus' Class

Humans hurt the environment by leaving trash that can choke an animal. They also hurt it by using pesticides. Humans are cutting down trees and uproot mangroves seeing it as useless when it's not. Last, humans drain ponds and rivers which provide our water.

Hurricane Irma will affect our community in the future. The trees that fell became new beautiful trees. The flooded roads became new and safe. Some homes were bad; but in the future, the houses are better than ever. Animals are dying, but in the future all animals are safe and healthy. -Chaniah G., Ms. Whelan's class Irma killed many trees; but in the future, the trees will grow back again. The houses fell or got damaged, and people rebuild homes. Animals did die, but I think people will help them if they are endangered. Lots of [rain] flooded animals homes. In the future, animals will find new homes. -Calvin M., Ms. Whelan's class Hurricane Irma affected our community. Hurricane Irma made sinkholes in the ground. Some trees got messed up. Next year, I think there will be growth where there were dead limbs. Another thing is a squirrel went into my neighbor's garage. Roads were flooded, and I think in a couple of years they will be fine. -Morgan A., Ms. Sarus class
