Iditarod
The Iditarod, if you didn't know is the hardest race on Earth. It is a dogsled race all the way across Alaska. Mushers have to mush across ar least 1,000 miles of hard, snowy terrain. The Alaskan outback is full of hard turns and rough ground while the Alaskan fronteir is filled with mountains and hills that the mushers and their dogs have to climb to get over. My favorite mushers are Lance Mackey and Bruce Linton. Lance Mackey has been through throat cancer and still has won three Iditarods in a row! Bruce Linton has diabetes and is a very good role model for diabetics around the world. He is living proof that diabetics can do anything if they put their mind to it. He has done two Iditarods, three ironmans, and five marathons! I like him because my friend is a diabetic and i want him to be all he can be.

Environmental Change
My environmental change is a forest fire. Sometimes what causes forest fires is drought or it getting way too hot. The most common place for a forest fire to hit is near Siberia, because it near the equator. A species that has been affected by forest fires is the hawk. The hawk lives up in trees and when a forest fire hits it burns down its tree and it doesn't have home anymore. It doesn't necessarily die out because it can go to another forest. My personal feelings about the condition is I don't like it because it kills a lot of animals and trees and puts a bunch of animals homeless. A website is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildfire.

My Project
The project in English class that I'm doing is The CKC Hat! It's a skateboarding hat that is made of polyester instead of cotton! Polyester is much stronger and warmer than cotton. Most of your blankets, mittens, toboggans, and sweaters are made of polyester so you know that it will be warm. This hat is just one of the products CKC Inc. makes. I used bandwagon and testimonial categories in my speech.
