Esteban Mannion B1 5/13/13 ** Transportation Safety On The Sea **

You may think that the American oceans are safe, but unfortunately if you were to think that you would be wrong and the government hasn’t made much effort to make the American coast safe. This affects the economy, safety and the environment in a monstrous way. Every day, almost 5 million tons of cargo, over 90% of American supplies, comes through American ports. Less than 2% of it is ever looked at. Terrorists can come by boats and could be carrying a weapon of mass destruction. In the event of that, a lot of ships wouldn’t have good survival craft. A few weeks ago, there was a house vote to change the law of requirement of survival craft. Lots of passenger boats are now allowed to carry floats that do not keep survivors out of the water or protect them from hypothermia. As you just read, the ports of America aren’t as safe as you expect.

Oil transport can be a very dangerous thing, and governments haven’t made the greatest efforts to prevent them. Many major oil-drilling countries are starting to rebel against big oil companies such as BP or Texaco’s. Not only does this cause a great loss of money and reputation it damages the environment in a very harmful way. The American coasts aren’t as safe as you think, and they wont, until we find ways to prevent these events from occurring. Remember, when someone asks you to go on a cruise ship with him or her, think twice before doing it.

__Limericks by Esteban__ __ Autumn Feelings __ The Autumn Feelings Are now swirling around us   The air, the colors. The Leaves are piling They are red as a cherry The wind blows softly. The cold autumn breeze Shows me how to enjoy life My favorite time. Haiku By Esteban __ Difference __ Yesterday I hatedto move schools, But I loved meetingnew friends. I cried losing my friends, But I smiled meeting new ones. I didn’t know how many friends I would have, But I knew I would be social. I was terrible at speaking up for myself, But I was great at speakingup for others. Today I hate big audiences, But I love publicly speaking. I cry missing my family, But I smile when Ivisit them. I don’t know how well my grades will be, But I know I will try my best. I’m terrible at beingorganized, But I’m great at trying my best. Tomorrow I will hate not having parents, But will love having more responsibilities. I will cry not completingmy goals, But smile because I did my best. I will not know my grandkids future, But I know they will try their best. I will be bad at socializing, But great at giving advice. media type="custom" key="23726589"media type="custom" key="23743614"
