1.Today in class while watching the movie the 11th hour, it was very informational. I felt as if i can be a better person in the society if I make change in myself to change the environment. I dont think I can make immediate change because im a person who revolves around all kinds of fuel, and going to the race track and is around all kind of fumes nd tire smoke.
2. If I only had 24hrs to live and was able to speak to one person i think i would go to factory workers. I think i can convince them about the damage that is being caused because their factories nd smoke stacks are causing a big issue. Pollutants are being exposed to the air nd affecting everyone around us. I would tell them about how they affect us and what problems is causing not only around them but all around the world. I would tell them that over time the earth will still be dere but over time we wont anymore.
If I had 24 hours to live, I would want to talk to my family,to tell them i love them. About the movie i saw i would tell them that there are things going on that only we can fix, we need to make alternate solutions to make things right. I would warn them about global warming and about the dangers we can create.
1.)I havent made any changes today as of right now. When I get home I will probably never litter again and think before I do anything that will harm our population.
2.)I would want to talk to my mom, father, brother, sister, and other family and friends that would like to help me. I would tell them the reason why I might be dying. I will tell them that the movie talked about the pollution and the disaster. I will tell them to watch what they do to the society because it can come back and destroy your life.
well today i have learned a few new things. while watching the movie " the 11th hour" has really gave me useful knowledg that i didnt know about. I'm all over the palce each day, and i have never realized how much the world was polluted. The earth owns so much pollution, i didnt reallying think that i could make a DIFFERENCE but as my pairs brought out, even though me alone can not make a difference....but by you telling more persons about what your trying to change, you just might make a difference.
If i could only talk to one person..then i would inform them on what BAd is going on around us in our everydy life. so that they could be the voice to pass on the word. brandee hailey*
the change made in myself is that i have to learn that the enviroment is just as important as myself. and i need to take more consideration into the enviroment and my surrodings. ever since i saw this movie i want to help out and do for the world. i feel so new yes!!!!
Yo... Well If i had 24 hours to live, there really wont be much i can do.. But if I can talk to someone I would want to GHANDI!!!!!!!!!! There so many reasons why I would want to meet him and talk to him. Some questions I would ask him is WHY??Why would yo starve your self. And Also I would tell him if there is anything he ccan do there to change the way how they lived. I would tell him About global warming and the video I saw today.
PS. I will also tell him that we look alike. :)

Watching the 11th hour had a GREAT impact on me. It had opened my eyes to what is really going on in the world. It made me realize that everything that I was thinking about before meant nothing to me anymore after I watched this film. It made me want to change the way I do things in my life. It made me want to become a better person to society. If I knew that I had 24 hours left to live I would go to church and ask for god to forgive me for what I have sin for. I would make amends with the people in my life that I had conflict with. I would tell everyone that I can tell about this movie and explain to them the feeling that I got from watching it and have a real talk with that person one on one. Life is a gift I think and it’s up to you the way you choose to live it. Remember tomorrow is never promised.
Q1
A) When I get home today I'm going to speak to my mom about unplugging certain stuff from the circuits in the wall so we don't waste any electricity. Its not much but its a start.
Q2
A) If I had 24 hrs. to live I would try to get as many people to watch the movie as possible. This way more people could be aware of the problem with the earth and so people could push each other to try and work together to save our world. By doing this I can feel relieved that I did something about this issue before I died.
Today in class I thought about what was going on in the biosphere, and it shocked me because its putting all of us in danger. Its almost like we are committing suicide towards ourselves, endangering other humans, and endangering animals an any other living thing in the biosphere
Today Was my first day of summer school. I woke up to a Shining Bright sun , And 3 Of my cousins Laying in a Comfortable bed next 2 me. When I woke up I wanted to Stay in bed and go back to Sleep, but I thought about my future and decided that im going to go to summer school. By just doing that I made a Change in myself , and In the community. The way i changed myself is by Pushing myself to do the right thing so I can get out of High school, The change that I have made in the community is By going to school and inspiring other Children/Teenagers to do the same.
If i had 24 hrs to Live I would want to talk 2 my Parents. I would tell them everything that they need to know about their sound and how im thankful for everything they have done & how they loved me Unconditionally. I really wouldnt tell them anything about that movie because I dont think it would make a difference in their life and I wouldnt want to waste my 24 hrs. talking about a movie that wont change their life.
1}After watching the 11th hour i feel that there are many ways people can make changes, i personally would try to make an effort to stop littering and educate others on how to protect our envioroment and keeping it clean and healthy.
2}if i only 24 hour to live, the person that i would like to talk too would be the people that are involved in harming our environment such as deforestation, air pollution,fossile fueling and the many more things that are harmful to earth. i would tell them taht ther acts can cost human nature to vanish from the face of the earth.
if i only had 24 hours to live iwould sell my moms house and get her a christian center and make sure she no longer has any worries with her life and that she would remember me as a great succesful daughter. also i would try to get my high school diploma in 24 hours and i would do anything and i mean anything!!!! i just would want to be remembered as a succesful woman
1. After watching the 11th floor I have realized that we are harming the Earth. Some changes that I could make to help the earth are not use as much electricty as I normally use. Usually when I charge my cell phone I leave the charger plugged in almost all of the time, now that I know that it harm the earth I am going to start to unplug my phone charger after I am done charging my phone. I could also start using renewable resources. I could also help just by telling people about this issue, so they can make a change too. I can also stop purchasing items that harm the Earth.
2. If I had just 24 hours to live I would talk to my family and close freinds. I would tell my parents all of the things that I did that I shouldn't have done. I would tell my whole family and friends how much I love them.
The change that i made today is for starters, actually believing in myself that i can make a change in the world. By watching the movie today i was educated alot through the film,many things that i didn't know now i can go home and unplug my t.v or something and it will try to help in somewhat.If i was inform that i only had 24hrs to live i will most definately be with my family and tell them that be more aware of what you use and how you use it.limit the amount of things such as electricity,oil even trash because at that time you may think that it can't hurt you,but in the long run it will and also society.

A change i made in myself today is when im outside sometimes i used to litter, but now after watching this movie i would not just try not to litter but try to stop other people from littering. Also i would try to recycle more and buy a hybrid car too.

1.Today in class while watching the movie 11th hour, it was very interesting and informational. i could be a better person in life and in my community by helping my peers and helping nieghbors
2.if i had only 24 hrs to live, i would speak to factory workers, i would gived them information about what is happening with the envoirment
1. i havent made any changes in my life since i have sween the movie today.When i get home today i will inform everyone how much killing we are killing the world.Even though it is not hurting as you personally it will hurt your grandchildren and great grandchildren.There would be a massive extiction if we dont do anything now.
2.If i had twenty-four hours to live i would talk to my family and tell them how much i love them. I would tell them that we are killing our ecosystem. I would tell them something as easy as unplugging ur computer or taking would make a difference.
today was the first day of summer school, and we learned about the negatives that we are doing on the earth, it was a fun and welcoming activity, and im looking foward to tomorrows lesson.
COMMENT 1
I agree, the 11th hour was very informational and i know that im not able to make an immediate change. Ive started preventing myself from littering around my environment.
COMMENT 2
IF I had 24hrs to live and was able to speak to one person I would speak to my mom. I would tell her how important our environment is and tell her that the earth is going down from the pollution in air. Also that we are going low on food and oil. I would request that she tries to influence others to help with the environment.
1 A change I have made in myself today is that i will be me aware of my enviorment and i will try to be more concious of how much energy i use and how much pollution i put in the air.
2 If i only had 24hrs to live i would talk to a group of public figures so that i could tell them my opinions about how to prevent global warming and i would tell them that the movie the 11th hr addresses alot of important issues that should be publicly adressed and talked about.
1. From watching the movie "The 11th hour i think i made a change by decideing to stop littering and by doing that maybe i'll make some kind of change.
2. If i know i only had 24hrs to live honestly i'd want to do a lot af things and talk to a lot of people. But from watching that movie today i'd want to talk to someone who helps majorly to contribute to this situation and i'd have them watch this movie and have them realize that what their doing is not good for the community because its affecting everyone. I'd also want to talk to family and friends so that i can tell them to watch the movie and try to make some kind of difference even if its as little as recycling or something, just to warn them and make sure that their aware of whats happening in their sourroundings.
today i learned how to save energy and how the world is really not how it use to be i leard so mmuch on how we can help save energy in the littlest way like pulling out your charger and recycle and how we have to open our eyes and see the other thing beside the little thing that we think is big because we are seriouely hurting our enviorment
if i only had 24 hours to live i would tell them to use ther head and tell them to look how the world has came to be we are losing so many things over little silly things that we dont know save energy and stop polluting the earth where killing the earth and kiliing our self every time we throw something in to the ocean it comes right back into our body

If I only had 24 hours to live I would try to talk to the goverment and ask them why did they not help us to make the society better. Why didn't they invest in helping the biosphere to make it healthy.
1. Some things that i could do after watching the movie The 11th Hour is to try to convince people to take care of the world that we are all living on. All the minor things people do count to the world like using the car to much for no reason, just to drive.
2. If i had 24hours to live i would talk to my little cousin and teach him to recycle and clean up the enviornment. Warnings about life that i would want to pass along to others would have to be how much damage the earth is going through and how the polar ice caps are melting, also the atmoshperic damage from all the human inventions and resources.
From my point of view the changes i made today was to think more about this world and how we are living on it and how we need to stop playing around with things . Also to stop having tv on all night and the a.c and so much more.and one change i made in my self today was just thinking more about whats around me and my family. what i think i can do today when i go home and by watching the movie called the 11th hour is tell more people just tell them look around look at what you are doing try to help the world much as you can we know we can not do it all at one time but get people tell people talk to them go to schools vote more get out there and just really look aroud look people. because if we do not looking now things are going to go more and more out there. and the world will come to an end you will not see it but just think about it. people think. love jasmine ha ha........
1) The change i have made would be my mentality and my surroundings. I;ve learned to let things go and excepot people for who they are instead of judging them. I've learned who my rue friends are.
2) I would tell them that unless they wanna die DON'T LITER. Also if they don't want to live on a dirty earth keep it clean.
ii. so where do i start..umm..
today we leavned about how we affect the planet atmosphere by doing our normal things. Like leaving the computer on all dat to see who can be online the longest time lol..and turn off da cable box when i finish watching TV.

1. The changes that I've made in myself today is that I've decided to be more concience about how I act in the world and what I do in the world, or atleast I'll try.
2. If I had 24 hours to live I can't say exactly what it is that I would do. But if it were my last day to live I'd be sure to tell everyone how I felt about them and apologize to anyone that I'd ever done wrong but only if I truly regretted what I've done. But in my last minutes or hour of living I'd want to spend it with everybody close to me so that I wouldn't feel like I left the world alone...
Nickolan Lee,
1. After watching the film 11th hr; I felt more responiable about my envoriment such as recycling, unpluging idle electronics. When I get home I will take care of my neighborhood by putting up litter and try to convience my parents into opening up the window once in a while instead of blasting the A.C
2. If I had only 24 hrs to live I wpuld go talk to my family about conserving energy by not using the A.C every night and just open up the window. Go Obama
if i only had 24 hours to live iwould sell my moms house and get her a christian center and make sure she no longer has any worries with her life and that she would remember me as a great succesful daughter. also i would try to get my high school diploma in 24 hours and i would do anything and i mean anything!!!! i just would want to be remembered as a succesful woman

I often think about famous people, and how they are really in the spotlight- so many of them DO use their fame for the good of humanity, advocating change. So many of us feel overwhelmed by these ideas, and think that ONE PERSON cannot make a change. What about a chain reaction? Especially if you are a leader, of your school, of your family, of your friends...or just someone that people look up to in general? Starting a chain reaction of change- it's as simple as speaking your mind. Awareness is step one- now there are no excuses- we are all aware...
1.The changes I've made today are throwing away garbage and recycling plastic. The changes I've made in myself is that i planned to use my many talents in order to help the world with the many problems at large, such as, Global Warming/Climate Change. The changes I've made in the community are picking up litter and trash from around my housing area. The changes I've made in the world are selling some of my possessions from my home in order to donate the money to the american red cross. In order to help pay for Hurricane Katrinas Damage and Destruction in New Orleans.
2.If I had 24 hours to live I would talk to my God. I would ask him to help me survive and live through what is killing me. I would also ask my God to protect my parents and family while im gone and I would also ask for forgiveness from my sins against the Earth and from the problems I have caused in the world. So that I could go to heaven knowing the world is in Gods hands.I would also ask God to save the Earth and not to destroy it and not to destroy everyone on it.
1) The change that i made today was that I have to stop poluting the air . Garbage must be thrown away in the garbage and not on the ground .
2.
If I had 24 yrs. to live ,I would want to talk to my family members because they know me best . I would tell them how the earth needs help and I would tell them to watch the movie the (11th Hr )because it can help people and let them know how bad we are treating the earth .
question 2. if i had 24 hours to live i will talk to the world just try to talk to them i would tell them to vote more to look out do more things that would make the world good.because the world will come to and end. and i would tell them to watch that movie just to get them to think and to go and tell other people to watch it to. love this world ha ha.
i havent made any changes yet.to make it better i could take da buh insted of a car.and wen i qet home if im nah watchin tv i could unplug it.
if i had 24 hrz to live i would talk to law makers i would say past the law of saving the world.i would say that stop cutting down trees and to be more aware of the toxins that are going into the sky.
1.After watching the movie the 11th hour I learned that electricty cause pollution in the air,so now I know not to use it for no reason.I also know throwing things in the water can polute the ocean,so instead of poluting the water just throw the garbage in the trash can.
2.If I had 24hours to live after watching this movie,I would want to talk to the chlidren and explain to them that they are our future and poluting the earth is a bad thing.
1. After the Movie we watched today, I realy thought about the world that we live in. I've decided to keep my enviornment in mind and think about the earth before myself , it might keep me and my family alive longer. After the movie it really made me think. No more littering me for me.
2. If I had 24 hours to live I would tell the people I love the most I love them, espically my ex-bestfiend how much I missed her and regadless of the big mis understanding that we had I still love her and I really miss being her friend. I would tell my mother how much I apprecaited her and all the things that she done for me even though I act like I dont care sometimes. Although my father dosent really talk to me I would tell him how I felt about him even if he hardly talks to me. I would apologize for all the wrong things I ever done and say everyting I have ever wanted to say to anyone.
1.I've change my my look theres no more afro -i stopped litteren -ive watered my planets so that i could have oxegyen in my house -go 2 sleep
2.i would talk 2 1 of my closest friends and ask him wat he wants 2 do 4 the last 24 hours any thing in the worldi would tell them all about the bad things that happened in about the future.

After watching this inspiring,reality checking movie The 11th hour it made mind my start to think.Think and wonder how can I make the world a better place.I relized that I can plug out my phone charger when I am not using it.Also I can recycle.whenever I eat a big mac I must throw my garbage not in the sewer or on the street but in the garbage.
I would want to talk God and my little brother and my family.I would tell God I tried,tried to do my best to fulfill my destiny and tell him see him soon.I will tell my little brother I love him and tell him make me proud and be him.The warnings about life I would tell him is life is too short for stupidty just concentrate on your goal because tomorrow isn’t promised for you.I saw this movie that will change your perspective about the very own mother planet that you walk on.Also how the world is violent place
after watching the 11th hour today it made me have a different outlook on life ; help save our planet! REDUCE, REUSE, & RECYCLE
Turn off lights. Turn off other electric things, like TVs, stereos, and radios when not in use. Even if its by myself I think I can try to influence others to follow my example and hopefully it will be a chain reaction.

2. I would talk to shenice because she my bestfriend. I would say that i see a movie in school today name The 11th hours. Telling about global warming and telling how u people is destory the world from litter, using up lotr of engines and etc. I would pass along telling people to stop litter and when you use any items that are electric plug it out when you finish use it and also watch the movie it would going to be boring but it interesting.
1.Today while watching the movie the 11th hour,it was very informational.The change that i would like 2 change is stop littering.I would make that change because the world is looking bad while people keep littering all over the world.I think if i stop littering i would might make a difference,i want 2 make a change and the society.
2.If i only had 24hrs to live and was able to speak to one person i think i would talk to god.I would talk to him about the soicety and how it changed.The way the society changed it is a big issue because it is getting worse we got to try and make it better.The things i would tell people about the movie is to inform and help them to improve the biosphere.
1.The change that i made today was to be myself and not to be anybody else.The change that i made in myself was to talk more and to be better person in life.the change that i made in the community was to help people that need a hand.the change that i made in the world is to get ma edcation and to make sure that in life i can be that person i want to be.Help everyone that i can help with.
2.i will talk to someone that i can trust and tell them that life isnt about beign perfect.you can do anything if you keep your head up high and reach for what you want in life.the movie that i saw today in a summer program is 11th hour and it tells you everything that you need to know about the earth and the past.the warning that iwanna pass along is to be yourself and not someone else.
