00:00:00:00	00:00:04:18	A presentation of AIT.
00:00:06:19	00:00:07:25	>> It's messy.
00:00:07:25	00:00:09:24	It is freedom and it's rules.
00:00:09:24	00:00:10:24	It's rights
00:00:10:24	00:00:11:27	and responsibilities.
00:00:11:27	00:00:13:09	It's conflict and resolution.
00:00:13:09	00:00:14:12	>> Both empowerment
00:00:14:12	00:00:15:11	and compromise.
00:00:15:11	00:00:16:21	>> It is justice.
00:00:16:21	00:00:17:24	It is individual
00:00:17:24	00:00:19:01	and it's collective.
00:00:19:01	00:00:20:02	>> It's fairness,
00:00:20:02	00:00:21:29	respect and values.
00:00:21:29	00:00:23:15	>> It is equality.
00:00:23:15	00:00:24:22	It is truth.
00:00:24:22	00:00:25:23	It is government
00:00:25:23	00:00:26:23	and it's choices.
00:00:26:23	00:00:28:03	It's passionate.
00:00:28:03	00:00:29:13	It's problem solving.
00:00:29:13	00:00:31:12	It's action and it's possible.
00:00:31:12	00:00:32:19	It's me, my family
00:00:32:19	00:00:33:23	and my community.
00:00:33:23	00:00:35:07	"Democracy it is."
00:00:35:07	00:00:37:04	>> All: Democracy it is!
00:00:55:04	00:00:56:29	>> Your serve, Lily.
00:00:56:29	00:00:58:13	>> Give it back, Cody,
00:00:58:13	00:00:59:11	we're playing!
00:00:59:11	00:01:01:02	>> You want this ball back?
00:01:01:02	00:01:03:05	Sure, I'll give it back.
00:01:03:05	00:01:06:23	(Cody laughs)
00:01:06:23	00:01:08:05	>> Here, Trent, it's my turn.
00:01:08:05	00:01:09:05	>> That's right.
00:01:09:05	00:01:11:03	Here, Trent, pass it back.
00:01:11:03	00:01:12:01	What are you waiting for
00:01:12:01	00:01:13:27	muscle man?
00:01:13:27	00:01:15:05	You can make it this far,
00:01:15:05	00:01:16:07	can't you?
00:01:16:07	00:01:19:06	>> Yeah.
00:01:19:06	00:01:22:00	>> Cody!
00:01:26:18	00:01:27:13	>> What's wrong?
00:01:27:13	00:01:28:16	You guys mad at me?
00:01:28:16	00:01:30:06	>> Well, what do you think?
00:01:30:06	00:01:31:01	>> But he's the one
00:01:31:01	00:01:33:22	who took it away.
00:01:33:22	00:01:36:03	>> Okay, I'm serving.
00:01:40:26	00:01:44:11	(ice cream truck music)
00:01:52:07	00:01:53:21	>> Fairview Elementary School is
00:01:53:21	00:01:56:15	a year-round elementary school,
00:01:56:15	00:01:57:12	kindergarten
00:01:57:12	00:01:59:24	through sixth grade.
00:01:59:24	00:02:00:24	>> I pledge allegiance
00:02:00:24	00:02:02:04	to the flag...
00:02:02:04	00:02:03:10	>> The majority of students
00:02:03:10	00:02:04:11	at Fairview are Hispanic,
00:02:04:11	00:02:05:19	Latino students.
00:02:05:19	00:02:07:02	They're really nice kids
00:02:07:02	00:02:09:15	and work really hard at school.
00:02:09:15	00:02:11:03	>> We want to make a new rule
00:02:11:03	00:02:13:24	that, no more toy guns.
00:02:13:24	00:02:15:13	>> They park right outside
00:02:15:13	00:02:17:22	the school.
00:02:17:22	00:02:18:20	>> The problem is,
00:02:18:20	00:02:19:20	the ice cream trucks
00:02:19:20	00:02:21:11	are selling these toy guns.
00:02:21:11	00:02:22:19	>> Little kids could get shot
00:02:22:19	00:02:24:02	by BB guns.
00:02:24:02	00:02:25:03	>> It's too dangerous
00:02:25:03	00:02:27:00	to bring into school.
00:02:27:00	00:02:28:04	>> Toy guns were being sold
00:02:28:04	00:02:29:18	on ice cream trucks.
00:02:29:18	00:02:31:28	>> He sold me the BB gun.
00:02:31:28	00:02:33:08	>> Santiago, a 5th grader
00:02:33:08	00:02:35:02	at my school, brought a toy gun
00:02:35:02	00:02:37:15	in early March to school,
00:02:37:15	00:02:39:15	and had it in his pocket.
00:02:39:15	00:02:41:21	It was a large, black BB gun
00:02:41:21	00:02:43:19	that he had purchased
00:02:43:19	00:02:45:06	on an ice cream truck.
00:02:45:06	00:02:47:13	>> And then, like the next day,
00:02:47:13	00:02:49:26	I brought it to school.
00:02:49:26	00:02:50:25	>> Immediately upon being
00:02:50:25	00:02:52:23	reported that he brought a gun,
00:02:52:23	00:02:54:20	he was sent to my office.
00:02:54:20	00:02:56:06	>> I was kind of scared.
00:02:56:06	00:02:57:06	>> Parent notified,
00:02:57:06	00:02:58:08	the police notified.
00:02:58:08	00:02:59:12	Guns are not to be brought
00:02:59:12	00:03:00:18	to school.
00:03:00:18	00:03:02:11	>> Maybe you could get expelled.
00:03:02:11	00:03:03:11	>> The sale of these to a child
00:03:03:11	00:03:04:17	is against the law.
00:03:04:17	00:03:06:09	>> After doing my investigation,
00:03:06:09	00:03:07:21	I found that it was a mistake
00:03:07:21	00:03:08:26	that he brought the gun.
00:03:08:26	00:03:10:08	He didn't mean to.
00:03:10:08	00:03:11:14	But my school district
00:03:11:14	00:03:13:22	has a zero tolerance on guns.
00:03:13:22	00:03:14:27	He was immediately suspended
00:03:14:27	00:03:16:21	for five days from school.
00:03:16:21	00:03:18:15	>> Like, I felt bad, because
00:03:18:15	00:03:21:21	I was missing learning.
00:03:21:21	00:03:22:18	>> What are you guys
00:03:22:18	00:03:23:24	going to do if you see someone
00:03:23:24	00:03:25:09	with a toy gun in school?
00:03:25:09	00:03:26:14	You guys are going to have to be
00:03:26:14	00:03:27:19	leaders in your community,
00:03:27:19	00:03:28:25	since you guys know so much
00:03:28:25	00:03:30:12	about the subject.
00:03:30:12	00:03:31:22	>> What I like about getting
00:03:31:22	00:03:33:06	involved in this issue is that
00:03:33:06	00:03:34:18	you get to express yourself,
00:03:34:18	00:03:36:04	and say what you think
00:03:36:04	00:03:38:10	about the BB guns.
00:03:38:10	00:03:39:24	>> A couple of students
00:03:39:24	00:03:40:25	off-campus have been shot
00:03:40:25	00:03:41:22	with them.
00:03:41:22	00:03:42:26	>> Like, right here.
00:03:42:26	00:03:43:26	Everybody wants to get rid
00:03:43:26	00:03:45:03	of them so kids won't get hurt
00:03:45:03	00:03:46:07	no more.
00:03:46:07	00:03:47:19	>> Also, if they were playing
00:03:47:19	00:03:49:02	with the guns, someone
00:03:49:02	00:03:50:23	might think they're real.
00:03:50:23	00:03:51:24	>> One of these little boys
00:03:51:24	00:03:53:16	pointed it at a policeman,
00:03:53:16	00:03:57:25	and he almost got shot.
00:03:57:25	00:04:00:06	>> Santiago and his classmates
00:04:00:06	00:04:01:26	have decided to stop the sale
00:04:01:26	00:04:04:08	of toy guns on ice cream trucks.
00:04:04:08	00:04:07:01	>> No more toy guns.
00:04:07:01	00:04:08:27	>> We've been doing posters.
00:04:08:27	00:04:11:02	We've been doing petitions.
00:04:11:02	00:04:12:05	It's like a paper, where
00:04:12:05	00:04:13:08	you're like, you're trying
00:04:13:08	00:04:14:15	to get everybody's signature
00:04:14:15	00:04:15:21	to agree with you.
00:04:15:21	00:04:16:19	>> So he and his class
00:04:16:19	00:04:18:00	took it on.
00:04:18:00	00:04:19:06	And they have researched
00:04:19:06	00:04:21:07	about the issue of BB guns.
00:04:21:07	00:04:22:06	>> My class is trying
00:04:22:06	00:04:24:00	to bring this problem
00:04:24:00	00:04:26:02	to the city council,
00:04:26:02	00:04:27:07	so that ice cream trucks
00:04:27:07	00:04:29:25	won't sell toy guns to kids.
00:04:29:25	00:04:30:25	>> We hope this is only the
00:04:30:25	00:04:32:16	beginning, of many problems that
00:04:32:16	00:04:34:15	you help fix in our community,
00:04:34:15	00:04:36:20	our neighborhoods and our state.
00:04:36:20	00:04:37:20	Thank you very much, Santiago,
00:04:37:20	00:04:39:07	and classmates.
00:04:39:07	00:04:41:00	(applause)
00:04:41:00	00:04:43:12	>> I think what we're doing now,
00:04:43:12	00:04:44:14	to protect the rights
00:04:44:14	00:04:45:22	is pretty important
00:04:45:22	00:04:47:21	for in the future,
00:04:47:21	00:04:49:29	because people will not be
00:04:49:29	00:04:52:16	getting hurt by these toy guns.
00:04:59:28	00:05:02:06	>> You guys still mad at me?
00:05:02:06	00:05:03:03	>> We weren't mad, maybe
00:05:03:03	00:05:05:07	just a little disappointed.
00:05:05:07	00:05:06:05	>> But you saw how Cody
00:05:06:05	00:05:07:26	made me throw the ball to him!
00:05:07:26	00:05:09:05	>> Made you?
00:05:09:05	00:05:10:15	>> Well, you know.
00:05:10:15	00:05:11:21	>> Look, we know he's just
00:05:11:21	00:05:12:28	a bully.
00:05:12:28	00:05:14:04	He does that to everyone.
00:05:14:04	00:05:15:21	>> I wouldn't do that.
00:05:15:21	00:05:16:18	>> Of course not.
00:05:16:18	00:05:17:22	You helped him.
00:05:17:22	00:05:19:00	>> Helped him?
00:05:19:00	00:05:20:21	>> Look, pretend I'm a bully.
00:05:20:21	00:05:22:05	Here, Haley, hold your books.
00:05:22:05	00:05:23:17	>> My books?
00:05:23:17	00:05:24:17	>> Now, pretend you two
00:05:24:17	00:05:25:14	are just talking.
00:05:25:14	00:05:26:17	>> Hi, Trent.
00:05:26:17	00:05:29:08	>> Watch this, Trent.
00:05:29:08	00:05:32:03	>> Okay, and so?
00:05:32:03	00:05:33:11	>> If you stand there and laugh
00:05:33:11	00:05:34:15	you encourage the bully,
00:05:34:15	00:05:35:15	you help.
00:05:35:15	00:05:36:19	But there's another choice.
00:05:36:19	00:05:37:23	If you side with the victim,
00:05:37:23	00:05:38:27	the bully loses power.
00:05:38:27	00:05:39:25	You could also help
00:05:39:25	00:05:41:00	report him to a teacher.
00:05:41:00	00:05:42:03	>> A teacher?
00:05:42:03	00:05:43:01	>> Well, maybe it would be
00:05:43:01	00:05:44:10	easier if two kids did it,
00:05:44:10	00:05:45:18	or three.
00:05:45:18	00:05:46:27	>> Yeah, that would really help.
00:05:46:27	00:05:48:00	I say we should all help out
00:05:48:00	00:05:49:05	the next time Cody bullies
00:05:49:05	00:05:50:17	someone on the playground.
00:05:50:17	00:05:51:16	What do you say?
00:05:51:16	00:05:53:11	>> Sure, I guess I could help.
00:05:53:11	00:05:54:17	>> Yeah, you owe us one,
00:05:54:17	00:05:58:01	"muscle man."
00:05:58:01	00:05:59:09	>> Hey, Haley,
00:05:59:09	00:06:00:23	you forgot your books.
00:06:00:23	00:06:02:20	>> Very funny!
00:06:07:05	00:06:09:07	>> All right!
00:06:13:20	00:06:16:13	>> Bully behavior is when,
00:06:16:13	00:06:19:06	maybe you are teasing someone.
00:06:19:06	00:06:20:03	>> When someone's
00:06:20:03	00:06:22:12	picking on another kid.
00:06:22:12	00:06:24:14	>> I don't like it.
00:06:24:14	00:06:25:16	The people need to stop
00:06:25:16	00:06:27:03	bullying other people.
00:06:27:03	00:06:28:06	>> The students were actually
00:06:28:06	00:06:30:09	the ones who drove us
00:06:30:09	00:06:32:04	toward this direction.
00:06:32:04	00:06:33:26	>> It's like Bully Busters
00:06:33:26	00:06:35:16	are people who stop bullies
00:06:35:16	00:06:37:07	when they see it happening.
00:06:37:07	00:06:38:17	>> I think they're very excited
00:06:38:17	00:06:39:14	when they wear
00:06:39:14	00:06:40:23	their Bully Buster T-shirts.
00:06:40:23	00:06:41:29	I think they feel important,
00:06:41:29	00:06:43:13	and should.
00:06:43:13	00:06:44:20	>> The bullies think they're
00:06:44:20	00:06:46:25	being funny when they do stuff.
00:06:46:25	00:06:48:02	>> If you see somebody
00:06:48:02	00:06:49:03	being teased,
00:06:49:03	00:06:50:14	I don't think you should laugh.
00:06:50:14	00:06:52:06	>> Because it encourages them
00:06:52:06	00:06:55:11	to keep on teasing people.
00:06:55:11	00:06:57:04	>> I feel sorry for the person
00:06:57:04	00:07:00:02	that gets laughed at.
00:07:00:02	00:07:01:07	>> I think Patrick and David
00:07:01:07	00:07:02:23	are being big babies,
00:07:02:23	00:07:03:21	look at them.
00:07:03:21	00:07:05:25	That's funny, you're so right.
00:07:05:25	00:07:07:02	They should be playing football
00:07:07:02	00:07:08:25	or four square.
00:07:08:25	00:07:10:14	>> We wrote these skits, about
00:07:10:14	00:07:13:04	how to help stop bullying and
00:07:13:04	00:07:15:24	make Emerson a better school.
00:07:15:24	00:07:17:06	>> Hey, Patrick and David,
00:07:17:06	00:07:18:14	did you know that Sam M.
00:07:18:14	00:07:19:29	is starting a rumor about you?
00:07:19:29	00:07:21:14	>> Really?
00:07:21:14	00:07:22:26	>> I don't think it's very nice.
00:07:22:26	00:07:24:27	And it's not true either.
00:07:24:27	00:07:26:08	>> Camille, I've been thinking,
00:07:26:08	00:07:27:16	you should stop bullying people.
00:07:27:16	00:07:28:29	People are starting to think
00:07:28:29	00:07:30:03	you're bad when you're
00:07:30:03	00:07:31:11	really not.
00:07:31:11	00:07:33:05	>> I do think our students are
00:07:33:05	00:07:37:00	seeing that they can stop it.
00:07:37:00	00:07:38:07	>> It's important not to give
00:07:38:07	00:07:40:07	the bullies what they want.
00:07:40:07	00:07:42:18	>> And our skit was about rats.
00:07:42:18	00:07:44:11	A girl had a rat.
00:07:44:11	00:07:45:09	>> Hey, Haley,
00:07:45:09	00:07:46:12	my rats are having babies.
00:07:46:12	00:07:47:09	Do you want one?
00:07:47:09	00:07:48:10	>> I'd love one.
00:07:48:10	00:07:50:15	>> But the bully started
00:07:50:15	00:07:52:00	making fun of them because,
00:07:52:00	00:07:53:29	"Rats stink like you guys,"
00:07:53:29	00:07:55:06	and stuff like that.
00:07:55:06	00:07:56:04	>> Rats are disgusting,
00:07:56:04	00:07:57:07	like you guys.
00:07:57:07	00:07:58:04	>> You've never even seen
00:07:58:04	00:07:59:08	my pets.
00:07:59:08	00:08:00:20	They're cute.
00:08:00:20	00:08:01:19	>> The bully
00:08:01:19	00:08:02:19	stopped being a bully.
00:08:02:19	00:08:03:24	>> Lets go over to your house
00:08:03:24	00:08:04:27	and see them.
00:08:04:27	00:08:05:29	>> That sounds like
00:08:05:29	00:08:06:29	a great idea, let's go.
00:08:06:29	00:08:07:28	>> Can I come?
00:08:07:28	00:08:08:29	>> Okay, only if you promise
00:08:08:29	00:08:11:03	not to be a bully.
00:08:11:03	00:08:12:08	>> Okay, I won't be mean
00:08:12:08	00:08:13:27	anymore.
00:08:13:27	00:08:17:05	(applause)
00:08:17:05	00:08:19:01	>> They have the power
00:08:19:01	00:08:20:24	to stop it.
00:08:20:24	00:08:21:24	>> I think you should go
00:08:21:24	00:08:23:03	and apologize.
00:08:23:03	00:08:24:05	>> Really, it's more meaningful,
00:08:24:05	00:08:25:12	and more powerful
00:08:25:12	00:08:26:15	when the students
00:08:26:15	00:08:28:06	have that shared leadership.
00:08:28:06	00:08:29:04	>> I feel good, because
00:08:29:04	00:08:30:14	I helped someone.
00:08:30:14	00:08:32:16	>> You don't have to be superman
00:08:32:16	00:08:34:10	to help a person.
00:08:34:10	00:08:35:25	You can always just be you.
00:08:35:25	00:08:37:14	>> We have the right
00:08:37:14	00:08:40:17	to help them stop bullying.
00:08:40:17	00:08:41:15	>> Respect others
00:08:41:15	00:08:43:03	and they will respect you too.
00:08:43:03	00:08:44:04	>> I mean, like, no one
00:08:44:04	00:08:45:17	should be bullied.
00:08:45:17	00:08:46:29	>> When you're a bully,
00:08:46:29	00:08:48:14	you're not being responsible.
00:08:48:14	00:08:49:25	You're not being safe,
00:08:49:25	00:08:51:08	and you're not being respectful.
00:08:51:08	00:08:53:03	>> It's not acceptable behavior.
00:08:53:03	00:08:54:18	It's not acceptable to watch
00:08:54:18	00:08:57:25	bullying and not come forward
00:08:57:25	00:09:00:25	to try to help stop it.
00:09:00:25	00:09:01:25	>> I have a right to go
00:09:01:25	00:09:03:10	to school, because every day
00:09:03:10	00:09:05:05	we learn something new, and
00:09:05:05	00:09:07:12	we play and we meet new friends.
00:09:07:12	00:09:09:09	>> I don't think anybody should
00:09:09:09	00:09:11:18	ever bully, because everybody
00:09:11:18	00:09:14:09	needs the right to feel safe.
00:09:23:11	00:09:26:21	>> That's really ugly!
00:09:32:00	00:09:32:29	>> Look's like Cody's at it
00:09:32:29	00:09:34:14	again.
00:09:34:14	00:09:36:23	>> Whatcha reading, Johnnie?
00:09:36:23	00:09:37:29	I said, show me the book,
00:09:37:29	00:09:39:23	Johnnie!
00:09:39:23	00:09:41:15	Who the?
00:09:41:15	00:09:43:12	>> Where's the pencil, Cody?
00:09:43:12	00:09:44:16	>> What?
00:09:44:16	00:09:45:25	>> The red pencil.
00:09:45:25	00:09:47:21	From yesterday, dork!
00:09:47:21	00:09:50:04	>> Well, maybe I forgot it
00:09:50:04	00:09:51:25	in my backpack.
00:09:51:25	00:09:53:13	>> Maybe?
00:09:53:13	00:09:54:15	Maybe you should remember
00:09:54:15	00:09:56:09	to get it from your backpack.
00:09:56:09	00:09:59:27	Like now!
00:09:59:27	00:10:01:02	>> Hey, Johnnie.
00:10:01:02	00:10:02:03	>> Hi.
00:10:02:03	00:10:03:09	>> We'll tell the principal
00:10:03:09	00:10:04:13	about Cody.
00:10:04:13	00:10:05:15	>> And Leroy, too.
00:10:05:15	00:10:06:19	Isn't that right, Trent?
00:10:06:19	00:10:08:05	>> Uh, yeah, right.
00:10:08:05	00:10:09:02	>> Hey, I read that book.
00:10:09:02	00:10:10:04	It's awesome!
00:10:10:04	00:10:11:03	>> Yeah, I really like
00:10:11:03	00:10:12:05	the author a lot.
00:10:12:05	00:10:13:18	>> All right, see you later.
00:10:19:12	00:10:20:09	>> This is the creek
00:10:20:09	00:10:24:03	behind our house.
00:10:24:03	00:10:25:20	We've been working on this creek
00:10:25:20	00:10:26:26	for about maybe three or four
00:10:26:26	00:10:29:16	years now to help and support
00:10:29:16	00:10:32:12	the life in the creek.
00:10:32:12	00:10:34:22	And it's helping to make
00:10:34:22	00:10:38:00	a more diverse area in here.
00:10:38:00	00:10:39:13	We get a good learning
00:10:39:13	00:10:41:11	experience finding plants
00:10:41:11	00:10:43:07	and other creatures around here.
00:10:43:07	00:10:46:09	I'm going to release him.
00:10:46:09	00:10:47:13	>> It's my favorite spot,
00:10:47:13	00:10:48:26	this big rock.
00:10:48:26	00:10:50:12	I can stand on it, sit on it,
00:10:50:12	00:10:54:06	whatever I want.
00:10:54:06	00:10:56:02	>> We got a video
00:10:56:02	00:10:58:18	called "The Blue Planet."
00:10:58:18	00:11:00:11	And I watched it, and
00:11:00:11	00:11:01:15	I couldn't believe about
00:11:01:15	00:11:03:09	the devastation of rainforests,
00:11:03:09	00:11:04:15	how people are burning down
00:11:04:15	00:11:05:27	and cutting down all the trees
00:11:05:27	00:11:07:06	and everything around it,
00:11:07:06	00:11:08:16	and killing many species,
00:11:08:16	00:11:10:01	that I wanted to help a lot.
00:11:10:01	00:11:14:12	So, I started this club.
00:11:14:12	00:11:16:02	>> We're going to be teaching
00:11:16:02	00:11:17:20	people what different types of
00:11:17:20	00:11:21:09	things come from the rainforest.
00:11:21:09	00:11:22:17	>> When I heard about this club
00:11:22:17	00:11:23:26	and one of my classmates
00:11:23:26	00:11:25:03	was starting it, I thought
00:11:25:03	00:11:26:25	that was really great.
00:11:26:25	00:11:27:25	>> Well, the club
00:11:27:25	00:11:29:02	was hugely successful.
00:11:29:02	00:11:30:16	Their intention was to run the
00:11:30:16	00:11:32:16	"Blue Planet Environment Club,"
00:11:32:16	00:11:33:15	to raise money
00:11:33:15	00:11:35:12	for the rainforest.
00:11:35:12	00:11:36:20	>> We hope to earn a lot
00:11:36:20	00:11:37:22	of money.
00:11:37:22	00:11:39:08	And so far I think we've saved
00:11:39:08	00:11:41:12	about 10 acres now, and we're
00:11:41:12	00:11:43:02	still working to earn more money
00:11:43:02	00:11:44:26	and to educate more people.
00:11:44:26	00:11:46:15	Okay, this is the T-shirt
00:11:46:15	00:11:49:11	that we just got in the mail.
00:11:49:11	00:11:51:28	>> And the design was created by
00:11:51:28	00:11:54:24	one of the members of the club.
00:11:54:24	00:11:55:22	>> We named it
00:11:55:22	00:11:57:02	the "Blue Planet Club,"
00:11:57:02	00:11:58:11	really because we're really
00:11:58:11	00:12:00:20	trying to save a blue planet.
00:12:00:20	00:12:01:29	>> And my whole idea is
00:12:01:29	00:12:03:23	to empower children to initiate
00:12:03:23	00:12:05:14	things that they'd like to see.
00:12:05:14	00:12:06:17	>> Everyone is equal,
00:12:06:17	00:12:07:22	and everyone puts their ideas
00:12:07:22	00:12:09:08	into the club.
00:12:09:08	00:12:10:14	>> Modern medicines, tropical
00:12:10:14	00:12:13:05	fruits, and clean oxygen
00:12:13:05	00:12:14:23	come from the rainforest.
00:12:14:23	00:12:16:00	>> About an acre per second
00:12:16:00	00:12:17:04	is being destroyed.
00:12:17:04	00:12:18:09	>> That's why we need
00:12:18:09	00:12:19:16	to protect it, because it's
00:12:19:16	00:12:20:22	being destroyed way faster
00:12:20:22	00:12:22:13	than we can help protect it.
00:12:22:13	00:12:23:18	>> I do think we have a right to
00:12:23:18	00:12:25:07	do that, because the rainforest
00:12:25:07	00:12:27:00	isn't really owned by anyone.
00:12:27:00	00:12:28:14	It's kind of owned by the world,
00:12:28:14	00:12:29:17	because the entire world
00:12:29:17	00:12:30:22	is using it.
00:12:30:22	00:12:32:05	>> It's everybody in the next
00:12:32:05	00:12:33:13	generations that are going
00:12:33:13	00:12:34:20	to use it, our grandchildren,
00:12:34:20	00:12:36:00	their grandchildren.
00:12:36:00	00:12:37:07	>> And you have a right
00:12:37:07	00:12:38:20	to have clean air, clean water,
00:12:38:20	00:12:40:05	and all the natural resources
00:12:40:05	00:12:41:14	that we need.
00:12:41:14	00:12:43:07	But in order for that to happen,
00:12:43:07	00:12:44:12	all the people have to
00:12:44:12	00:12:45:18	work together to take care
00:12:45:18	00:12:49:21	of those natural resources.
00:12:49:21	00:12:50:28	>> We need to dig some little
00:12:50:28	00:12:52:14	holes for our plants here.
00:12:52:14	00:12:53:23	>> They're planting prairie
00:12:53:23	00:12:55:20	wild flowers, and planting
00:12:55:20	00:12:57:25	a couple evergreens.
00:12:57:25	00:12:58:25	We're improving the environment
00:12:58:25	00:13:01:04	right here by their school.
00:13:01:04	00:13:02:03	>> Kids are concerned
00:13:02:03	00:13:03:25	about the environment.
00:13:03:25	00:13:05:05	>> And Putnam Heights has
00:13:05:05	00:13:06:15	a nature trail, and so
00:13:06:15	00:13:07:26	they're working along the trail,
00:13:07:26	00:13:09:27	picking up garbage.
00:13:12:20	00:13:13:19	§ And there's §
00:13:13:19	00:13:16:07	§ so many wildebeests... §
00:13:16:07	00:13:17:13	>> Well, Earth Day
00:13:17:13	00:13:19:00	is just to celebrate, I guess,
00:13:19:00	00:13:20:07	the beauty of the earth.
00:13:20:07	00:13:21:09	>> We're putting up a booth
00:13:21:09	00:13:23:09	at an Earth Day celebration.
00:13:23:09	00:13:24:07	>> How many of these
00:13:24:07	00:13:25:14	have you sold?
00:13:25:14	00:13:27:16	>> Um, I think three, now.
00:13:27:16	00:13:28:22	>> And where does the money go?
00:13:28:22	00:13:30:05	>> The rainforest, and to other
00:13:30:05	00:13:32:15	environmental causes.
00:13:32:15	00:13:33:28	>> It's really a day
00:13:33:28	00:13:35:20	where everyone who can and will,
00:13:35:20	00:13:37:01	will do at least something
00:13:37:01	00:13:40:00	little to help save the earth.
00:13:40:00	00:13:41:06	And I think that's been
00:13:41:06	00:13:43:04	an extremely big thing
00:13:43:04	00:13:44:20	to have all the kids helping
00:13:44:20	00:13:46:27	and working at the club.
00:13:51:07	00:13:52:11	>> Why do you suppose some kids
00:13:52:11	00:13:53:22	act like bullies?
00:13:53:22	00:13:54:22	>> I think it makes them feel
00:13:54:22	00:13:55:27	like big shots.
00:13:55:27	00:13:56:27	They don't have anything else
00:13:56:27	00:13:58:01	to feel important about.
00:13:58:01	00:13:59:03	>> Yeah, like maybe they're not
00:13:59:03	00:14:00:21	good at school or something.
00:14:00:21	00:14:01:23	And if they're bigger.
00:14:01:23	00:14:03:00	>> Or just tougher.
00:14:03:00	00:14:03:29	>> Or they've got other bullies
00:14:03:29	00:14:05:09	to back them up.
00:14:05:09	00:14:06:16	>> Yeah, Cody wasn't so tough
00:14:06:16	00:14:08:21	when his gang wasn't with him.
00:14:08:21	00:14:10:14	>> I must be pretty tough, then.
00:14:10:14	00:14:11:19	>> What?
00:14:11:19	00:14:13:06	>> So long, gang.
00:14:13:06	00:14:14:16	See you tomorrow.
00:14:14:16	00:14:16:10	>> Bye
00:14:20:29	00:14:27:00	>> To learn more about our program, visit our Web site: democracyitis.ecb.org
