Published on 2010-08-01 by Free Spirit Publishing
Written by service learning expert Cathryn Berger Kaye and celebrity ocean spokesperson Philippe Cousteau, Going Blue educates young people about the earth’s water crisis and gives them tools and inspiration to transform their ideas into action. With lively photos and practical suggestions, the book helps teens plan and do a meaningful service project that benefits our planet’s water system. Along the way, readers learn about issues such as clean water access, coral reef damage, runoff pollution, trash islands, factory fishing, bottled water, and much more. This combination of academic learning and community service is at the heart of the fast-growing teaching strategy known as service learning. Going Blue is divided into the five stages of service learning: investigation, preparation, action, reflection, and demonstration. Special sections include a history of ocean exploration with a profile of Jacques Cousteau; an interview with Philippe Cousteau; stories of young people around the world addressing water issues; book and Web resources; and an afterword for adults.

Don't you sort of loathe how we've entered the decadent period of Goodreads wherein perhaps fifty % (or more) of the evaluations published by non-teenagers and non-romancers are actually naked and unabashed within their variously successful efforts at being arch, wry, meta, parodic, confessional, and/or snarky? Don't you kind of maple (secretly, in the marrow of one's gut's merry druthers) for the great ol'days of Goodreads (known then as GodFearingGoodlyReading.com) when all reviews were uniformly plainspoke Don't you sort of loathe how we have entered the decadent period of Goodreads where probably fifty per cent (or more) of the opinions written by non-teenagers and non-romancers are actually nude and unabashed in their variously successful efforts at being posture, wry, meta, parodic, confessional, and/or snarky? Don't you kind of pine (secretly, in the marrow of one's gut's happy druthers) for the nice ol'days of Goodreads (known then as GodFearingGoodlyReading.com) when all evaluations were evenly plainspoken, merely effective, unpretentious, and -- above all else -- dull, boring, dull? Do not you type of loathe when persons state'don't you believe in this way or experience like that'in an effort to goad you both psychologically and grammatically into accepting with them? In the words of ABBA: I do, I really do, I do(, I really do, I do). Properly, as the interwebs is just a earth in which yesteryear stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the current (and with fetish porn), we can review days gone by in their inviolable presentness anytime we wish. Or at the very least till this website eventually tanks. Contemplate (won't you?) Matt Nieberle's review of Macbeth in its entirety. I have destined it with much string and dragged it here for your perusal. (Please realize that several a sic are recommended in the following reviews.) their really complicated and silly! why cant we be examining like Romeo and Juliet?!?! at the least that guide is good! There you've it. Refreshingly, not a evaluation prepared in among the witch's voices or alluding to Hillary and Statement Clinton or discussing the reviewer's first period. Merely a primal shout unleashed into the black wilderness of the cosmos.Yes, Mr. Nieberle is (probably) a teenager, but I admire his power to strongarm the temptation to be clever or ironic. (Don't you?) He speaks the native language of the idk generation having an economy and an understanding that renders his convictions much more emphatic. Here's MICHAEL's review of the exact same play. You could'know'MICHAEL; he's the'Problems Architect'only at Goodreads. (A problematic title itself in that it implies he designs problems... which can be the case, for many I know.) This book shouldn't be required reading... reading plays that you never want to see is awful. Reading a play kinda sucks to begin with, if it absolutely was supposed to be read, then it would have been a novel, not just a play. On top of that the teach had us students see the play aloud (on person for every single character for a few pages). None people had read the play before. None of us wanted to see it (I made the mistake of taking the'easy'english class for 6 years). The teacher picked students that looked like they weren't paying attention. All of this compounded to create me pretty much hate reading classics for something such as 10 years (granted macbeth alone wasn't the problem). I also hate iambic pentameter. Pure activism there. STOP the mandatory reading of plays. It's wrong, morally and academically. Plus it can actually fuck up your GPA. There's no wasteful extravagance in this editorial... no fanfare, no fireworks, no linked photos of half-naked, oiled-up, big-bosomed starlets, no invented dialogues between mcdougal and the review-writer. It's simple and memorable. Being required to learn plays is wrong, and if you require anyone, under duress, to see a play then you definitely have sinned and will hell, in the event that you rely on hell. If not, you're going to the DMV. I am also fed up with whatever you smug spelling snobs. You damnable fascists together with your new-fangled dictionaries and your fancy-schmancy spell check. Sometimes the passionate immediacy of an email overcomes its spelling limitations. Also, in this age when we are taught to respect each other's differences, this indicates offensively egocentric and mean-spirited you may anticipate others tokowtow in your small linguistic rules. Artsy concept will free by itself regardless of how you are attempting in order to shackle it. That is certainly your own cue, Aubrey. With my very own opinion, a participate in Macbeth ended up being the worste peice at any time provided by Shakespeare, this also says quite a lot considering in addition, i examine her Romeo and also Juliet. Ontop with it is really already fantastic piece, naive character types and absolutly discusting range of ethics, Shakespeare overtly portrays Lovely lady Macbeth as being the genuine vilian from the play. Considering the girl with mearly a express in the back game and also Macbeth themselves is definitely truely choosing the actual hideous offenses, including homicide and also scams, I do not realise why it's extremely simple to imagine which Macbeth would certainly be inclined to accomplish very good rather than evil doubts their spouse have been additional possitive. I do think that it have fun with is actually uterally unrealistic. Although the subsequent is by far your ne as well as super connected with typical ebook reviewing. When succinct and also with no unproductive trend in order to coyness and also cuteness, Jo's review alludes to some resentment therefore serious that must be inexpressible. A single imagines a number of Signet Classic Versions hacked to parts by using pruning shears in Jo's vicinity. I hate this specific play. Because of this which I cannot possibly offer you almost any analogies as well as similes with regards to just how much My spouse and i dislike it. A incrementally snarkier style could have stated a little something like...'I dislike this engage in similar to a simile I can not appear with.' Not really Jo. The lady talks a raw, undecorated real truth not fit to get figurative language. As well as there is nothing wrong by using that. After within an incredible whilst, when you are getting neck-deep inside dandified pomo hijinks, it is really a pleasant wallow from the pig compose you happen to be itchin'for. Many thanks, Jo. I enjoy both you and your useless clasping during similes that can't method the actual bilious hatred in the heart. You might be mine, and I will be yours. Figuratively chatting, associated with course. Now this is our examine: Macbeth by way of William Shakespeare is the foremost literary function in the The english language vocabulary, and anybody who disagrees is usually an asshole along with a dumbhead.
