Slide show presentation by Emily Adams
Photos by the home school kids of the Roaring Fork Valley in Colorado

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

My name is Emily Adams. I attend Basalt Middle School in Basalt, Colorado. I would like to share with you my vision for Earth Day in a slide show presentation that I have made.

All images within the show were created by myself since I was eight years old. Some of my friends have been kind enough to share a few quotes in the presentation.

Please feel welcome to forward my show to others, so we all can work together to create a healthy planet.

I would enjoy hearing your comments on my show.
Enjoy!

In celebration of Earth Day, the Roaring Fork Valley home school kids wish to share their images, written words and experiences about the future and health of our planet. Our photo workshop offered the children the opportunity to capture and highlight the change of seasons. We marveled in the kids excitement as they captured moments of discovery.

“Pine trees give you lots of air, pine cones, and sap. We need to help the Earth so we’ll always have pine trees.” Samantha Skilton, age 6

This workshop was made possible thanks to a grant from Environment Foundation

This photo essay was documented and written in a fun positive way to bring forth an awareness to our community and communities around the world of the increased shopping cart litter. In a two hour time, with the assistance of their parents, Emily, AJ and Ashley Adams collected over 25 shopping carts, digging them out of snow drifts, from the road side, bus stops and underpasses and returned them to the store. Thank you for viewing our images and reading our story. Together we can free our communities of “shopping cart litter”
Enjoy!

Thank you for your patience as all the images load!
