Matt @ Matt's Smoke Free Zone
Matt has linked us up to a game that feeds you glass shard freeze pops. I fed the characters as much as I could. Even when it was wrong to do so. The first level I scored 30... pretty bad. The next level I tried to do well, and scored 810. So I think the more glass you eat, the better! (nooooot!)
Sam @ Sustainability with Sam
I took Sam's linked quiz on asthma and scored 3/5. I know there are things I need to learn about it, not just for this but because I was diagnosed with it a few years ago after an extreme illness. One important thing I learned was that dust can be a cause. I will be dusting my room tonight.
Kristen @ Kristen's Atmosphere
Kristen had three linked videos to her post. The first was a parody of the Brady Bunch introduction where the parents, when introduced, are smiling and holding cigarettes, and blow the smoke into the kids' screens. It also talked about what the children were suffering from because of this.
Second video was the most disturbing to me. The part that stood out most was when the fat was squeezed from the artery. I'll never be a smoker, but if I ever had wanted to I think that image will stop me from ever trying it.
The third video showed what happened when a person sucked all the tar out of 400 cigarettes and boiled the tar water down to show exactly how much tar is in cigarettes.
Carly @ Go Blue Too
The link for the 'Are You Food Savvy?' link was not working. But there was another quiz you could take asking questions about how to store food which I found interesting and reminded me of when I took nutrition class many years ago. For someone who routinely lets food get close to expiration date, I found a lot of this information useful.
Dane I am glad that you learned so much from the activites. I did as well. I think that it is really great that we did these activities to teach each other some really valuable information.
ReplyDeleteThese activities were very beneficial to us I think and I know that I learned a lot of new things after completing these activities. Activities such as these will help us immensely in the future in our professions. Nice post.
