When you look at this world what do you see? Do you see a beautiful planet? Or an unfinished planet that still needs improvement?. Well whatever you see I most likely see something completely different, what I see is a dying planet. We don’t take care of our planet we are basically using it. The water cycle of a human can be explained in four basic words, Find, Use, Throw away. This has happened for many generations.
Take the great pacific garbage patch, for example, It’s a humongous mountain that takes up 1.6 million square kilometers of the Pacific Ocean which is about 2 times the size of Texas.
The world is kept warm by our greenhouse gases, CO2 , H2o, and CH4. These gases are a thin layer in our Atmosphere that when heat tries to escape it captures it and returns it back to earth to keep our planet livable. But the increase in burning oil and coal has made those greenhouse gasses work extra hard, and it results in an alarming increase in temperature. Which has resulted in droughts and floods. This has been hard on farmers, the droughts harden the soil and dry out the plants, whereas floods have drowned the plants and washed away mushy soil.
In Alaska, they have homes built to last in blizzards and snow storms, but with the increase in temperature, the snow is melting faster to where the snow can’t keep up. And houses are literally falling from the ground, and snow slides have become more often.

Scientists have listed these three problems that I have talked about from most urgent to least of our concern. Scientists say that Permafrost is the #3 problem in the world. The second most urgent problem is oceans are rising rapidly and completely devouring islands. And last but not least the problem that has caught everyone's attention, the problem that has caused ocean rising and permafrost the #1 problem is Flash Heat Waves. These three words might seem small, but the problem is bigger than all of us. It needs to stop, So what are you gonna do to stop this?
Most people would leave it up to the bigger people. Such as Scientists, the president, Secretary's, etc. But what if I told you that you can make a bigger impacted than all those people. You're probably questioning why I'm saying this, and probably saying to yourself that the president can make a bigger impacted. But you're parents would want to probably hear this from you, you're family will listen to you, you're friends will listen to you. You can make a bigger impacted than you think. Have you ever been in you're living room and you're parents are watching the news and they all of a sudden turn down the volume? Well, that's because they don't want to hear what the news people are saying.

My team that makes up of two people, came up with a small solution that can make a big impact. We used an EV3 Robot to build a prototype to help us get a visual understanding of what our robot would do. Our robot collects trash in a scooping motion that will hold all the trash that gets trapped in its arms. Once all the trash is collected it will be disposed of, or it would get recycled and reused into something more of use.
