Mission Statement
This blog's sole purpose is to present information pertaining to the environment and methods through which we can help improve its current state. The Earth was once pure and lush from the north pole to the south pole, and while perhaps we can never take it back to that original innocence, we can help to preserve it. It is our duty to future generations, and as the species given charge over this world, to begin taking the steps necessary to preserve our planet's beauty and nurture the environment's capacity to cleanse itself. This blog offers tips and presents ideas that will help sustain our planet's longevity and potential to provide for us, and hopefully motivate our readers to a better understanding of how we can impact the Earth in positive ways.
Featured Endangered Animal
Oceanic whitetip shark (Carcharhinus longimanus)
The Oceanic whitetip shark currently lives in all tropical to subtropical waters. It is threatened by fishermen in all of its habitats. Asian countries use the sharks' large fins for shark fin soup, but usually the rest of the carcass is discarded. It is also sometimes accidentally caught by fishermen who are looking to catch other fish. Its current state is vulnerable because it was once common in deep, cold water, but now sightings are rare.

Preserving the beauty and functionality of our planet is very important, but what about man kind? Go to The Hunger Site everyday, and just one click donates food to 3rd world countries. Also try Free Rice which is a site that donates rice for every vocabulary word you answer to the UN which makes sure the rice gets to nations in need. Join the KTPG team for Stanford's distributing computer project, for molecular folding. One day the information gathered through molecular folding might be used to find cures for diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, and Parkinson's disease. Go to the Distributing computer site to download the program, and put in the team number 86109 to join the KTPG team.
