For Thanksgiving many people are going to the airport. There are less people than last year though. Last year there were 2.7 million people and this year there were only 1.2 million people because of coronavirus. Many malls and stores were doing Black Friday online so less people can go to the malls and stores. Someone made a bridge out of stone and rocks for wild animals because if the bridge is made out of wood, wildfires would appear more. 2 men were running a business and there could only be one main person so they decided to flip a coin and whatever side it landed on that person would the be the main person of the business. Some person…

Today’s video was about a hurricane that covered Losianna, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. Because of this hurricane, more than 2.5M homes and factories didn’t have electricity. There were even more kinds of effects that the storm has made.The hurricane was very fast. The hurricane had both good news and bad news.

As November arrives, fires in California get worse and worse. Luckily, the world's very first fire-fighting robot, developed in Los-Angeles, California. It's called the Thermite RS3, and it is used to clear paths for fire-fighters to work safely, and it can fire nearly 3000 gallons of water per minute. Many more will be produced in order to help the fight against fire.

For a very long time, California has been constantly experiencing dangerous and destructive fires. In fact, it's not just California. Many parts of the world are experiencing fires very often.

She decided to bake tiny food for a chipmunk that comes by, the food looks so tiny and delicious, and the chipmunk is adorable. There also is an airport app, since there are so many Covid-19 cases airports. They decided to do the testings and give you a little notification on the airport app after you did your testing. It's very useful, to save time and will give the results quicker. There have been 5 hurricanes in Louisiana this year, that's a major threat since not many other countries had 5 hurricanes in 1 year.

Murderer hornets have somehow gotten to the United States and they are named after murderer hornets because they can kill people and they can take a whole beehive down in a few hours. A wind is causing more people to die in wildfires and it makes it more dangerous. A guy was a hero by giving RVs to people if their house got burned during a fire. He gave over 80 RVs. The health department were going to shut down Halloween but the community wanted to do Halloween so they didn’t make it a law but they said you could do it but it was not recommended. A 12 year olds girl wore a zoom costume that his dad made…
