My project is something I really liked working on. I have accepted awards from my school in most of my classes. My hobby is learning, I learn all day. I have one living parent for I have been raised by my grandparents, they only speak Cree to me and always tell me school is important. Over the years I have attended different schools and have had many teachers along the way. It was here in Nelson House that I have participated in my first science fair, Winnipeg was my second and I am now going to participate on behalf of my school in Ontario. This has been a good experience for me and I am thankful for everyone who has taught and inspired me to excel in my studies. |

I used the idea in this project as an alternative, instead of known harmful methods which are praticed today. This is a much better way to avoid loss of aquatic life and reuse the oil. In this way we can still use the nonrenewable source of energy which is in high demand |
