Hi,
I really enjoyed reading your post about vegans amongst kids. I found this article discussing if it is appropriate for children that I think you would like https://health.usnews.com/health-news/articles/2012/05/03/is-veganism-appropriate-for-kids. I liked how you stated that “Nutritions, which is really important to kids, cannot be satisfied with plant-based food.” I know that it seems like a healthy alternative, but with children growing and developing, they need a lot of energy and nutrients, so dieting and other forms of eating are not always the best. Going vegan for children does not allow them to have the vitamin B12 found in a lot of high protein foods. I think you could discuss an alternative if kids still want to go vegan. This could possibly be taking vitamin supplements or other foods. I think going vegan is healthy for adults as they do not need as many calories because they are fully developed, but for children they are still growing and require more. I really enjoyed your post.

Hey Mijin,
I think that your post on climate change was really great. It’s a huge problem, and you went over some of the easiest ways to prevent global warming. Here is a link to an article that I think provides some good evidence: (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/10/climate/climate-change-arctic-warming.html).

Hi,
I agree that climate change is a big problem. You have a clear point and good evidence suppor. I think you can give a more clear situation how bad is climate change, here is the link that I think will help. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qVXiWpLXmb6oJ3zc0c3yB8XDQvIynhyRCCeNN7TeXRo/edit?usp=sharing

Hey Mijin,
i really loved reading this little essay from you. it was very well presented and it had many great facts. another thing that i really loved from the writing is that you presented us with some solutions that we can do in our every day life to try and stop climate change, or so we can try to reduce our own carbon foot print.

Hi Mijin,
I also feel like the only publicized opinions on zoos are negative, and I agree that most zoos are not the best option for the animal. Animals should be left alone in their habitat to live where they belong. However, some zoos are purely rehabilitation, which benefits the species. I found an article that I linked below that talks about a program that reintroduces captive animals to their environment which in most cases are on the verge of extinction.
Thanks, Lola

Hello, Mijin
I have always concerned about this question also. But for those extinct animals, a zoo can be a legal place to protect wild animals. For example, the extinct birds are hatched and brooded, and the survival rate can already reach 85%, and the field is certainly lower. And we also expand the gene population.
Here is a link that you may interested in.

I very like your post becasue dolphins is a very smart animal, smarter than humen. It is very interesting to understand how does dolphins communicate. I personally very like them too because they are cute and kind to humen. Nice job! — Clinton Kwong.

Hello mijin,
Dolphin is one of the most smart animals in the world which they have similar way to speak as human. I really like how you explained the uses of dolphin’s sound and compared it with human.
