Enough about that, let's get too Today's 11 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: super Live Ay Lewis story. The story you're about to 12 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: enjoy was inspired by Joseph and Ashley. Thank you for 13 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: your amazing idea. As Ivy pulled back the curtains that 14 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: covered her window, what she and her brother saw left 15 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: them speechless. What are we looking at? Asked Levi with 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: a stun look on his face. I have no idea, 17 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: said Ivy, but this is terrible. Ivy and her brother 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: continued to stare out her window at a pile after 19 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: pile after pile of trash. As far as they could see, 20 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: there were chip bags, candy wrappers, water bottles, napkins, plastic bags, 21 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: fast food containers, and broken toys. What happened while we 22 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: were asleep? Asked Ivy. Levi just shook his head, unable 23 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: to understand what he was looking at. They called for 24 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: their parents and heard footsteps in the hallway. However, as 25 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: they turned around to ask if their parents had seen 26 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: the outside yet, they got a big surprise because it 27 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: wasn't their parents at all. Instead, they found themselves face 28 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: to face with Joseph and Ashley. They were wearing Planet 29 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: Patrol shirts and they both looked really sad. Joseph Ashley, 30 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: what are you two doing here? Askedlee, by walking toward 31 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: his friends. We came to talk with you about what's 32 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: been going on out there, said Joseph. We need your help. 33 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: Unlike before when Joseph and Ashley asked them to help, 34 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy didn't feel like they could say no 35 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: or walk away from the situation. What they saw who 36 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: outside needed their attention. How can we help, asked Ivy 37 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: and Levi. Together. First off, we need everyone to stop littering. 38 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,839 Speaker 1: It's totally out of control, replied Ashley. Then we need 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: to clean up what's out there. Said Joseph, but it's 40 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: going to take a lot of help. Wait a minute, 41 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: are you telling me that all those piles of trash 42 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: are because everyone in the neighborhood has been throwing their 43 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: garbage wherever they want to, Levi I asked, sounding shocked. Yes, 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened, answered Joseph. When you and Ivy 45 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: said littering wasn't a big deal, other kids heard you 46 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: and started littering too. Unfortunately they followed your example. Then, 47 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: before we all knew it, more and more people started 48 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: littering because they thought that since the neighborhood was already 49 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: a mess, what's one more piece of trash, said Ashley. 50 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: We tried to help as much as we could, but 51 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: now it's out of control and too big of a 52 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: problem for just the Planet Patrol to deal with, said Joseph, 53 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: looking discouraged. Wow, I didn't think it could ever get 54 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: this bad, whispered Ivy to her brother. We need to 55 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: help now. Levi nodded his head and told Joseph and 56 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: Ashley they'd help however they could. Levi and Ivy ran 57 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: off to get dressed, but Joseph and Ashley stopped them. 58 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: If you're going to help us, Ashley began, and promise 59 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: not to litter anymore, added Joseph. Then you're going to 60 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: need these, said Ashley, holding up a Planet Patrol shirt 61 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: for each of her friends. We promise, exclaimed Ivy and Levi. 62 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: We should have done this way sooner, said Levi. We're sorry, 63 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: added Ivy. They both grabbed their shirts, ready to take 64 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: on the tremendous, terrible trash towers outside. Armed with as 65 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: many garbage bags as they had in the house, the 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: four Planet Patrollers headed out the front door and knee 67 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: deep into old juice boxes, ice cream cups, and paper plates. 68 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: Levi ran to his garage to grab some shovels and gloves, 69 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: hoping that they would help them clear the trash way faster. 70 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: But the more they scooped up trash, the more the 71 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: piles seemed to grow, and once they looked around, they 72 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: saw why while they were cleaning, everyone else in the 73 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: neighborhood was going about their day littering and adding more 74 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: trash all around. We can't clean up after these litter bugs, 75 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: said Levi. We have to teach them not to litter 76 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: in the first place, added Ivy. Then, once they realized 77 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: what a good thing they were doing for the planet. 78 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: Then they can all share the task of cleaning up 79 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: our neighborhood together, exclaimed Levi. You've got it now, said 80 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: Joseph with a huge smile. That's what we're trying to 81 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: do for you, too, said Ashley. We didn't mean to 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: embarrass you that day at school, but we also couldn't 83 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: just let you keep littering. Then we thought working together 84 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: on planet patrol would be the solution, because we'd all 85 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: be doing it together, said Joseph. That's why we asked 86 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: you to join. That's all in the past, and we're 87 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: sorry for the way we treated you, said Levi. And 88 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: our planet, said Ivy is never too late to do 89 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: the right thing, so let's do it. Then, the planet 90 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: patrollers each put on some gloves, grabbed a shovel, and 91 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: set out clear path through the trash. That was until 92 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: they heard some something coming from the backyard. That sounds 93 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: like mom and dad, said Levi to a sister. So 94 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: they all ran to the backyard to ask if they 95 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: would help too. But when they got back there, it 96 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: was clear that cleaning up the trash was not on 97 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: their parents to do list that particular day. Levi and 98 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: Ivy were shocked to see their parents sitting on the 99 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: decks surrounded by granola bar wrappers and snack bags. Hi, kiddos, 100 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: why do you look so surprised, asked Levine. Ivey's mom. 101 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: Just look at our backyard, said Ivy. It's a mess. Well, 102 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: you two never had a problem with it before, said 103 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivey's dad. In fact, most of this trash 104 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: is from you two. Yep. One day we just got 105 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: tired of telling you to stop glittering, and we started 106 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: to do it too, said Levi and Ivy's mom. We 107 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: don't like it, but it's just what we're used to now, 108 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: and it seems too big of a problem to clean 109 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: it up ourselves. Levi and Ivy couldn't believe what they 110 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: had started. Mom and dad, you're right, you were right 111 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: about everything, Just like Joseph and Ashley. One little piece 112 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: of trash is one piece too many, said Levi. Since 113 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: this mess is too big to clean up alone, we're 114 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: going to do it together, all of us and the 115 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: rest of the neighborhood, added Ivy. We need to care 116 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: for our planet, and right now we definitely aren't doing that. 117 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: Just look around even the animals that call our neighborhood home. 118 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: They don't look happy at all, And as they looked around, 119 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: they saw squirrels, chipmunks, and bunnies crawling and hopping through 120 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: trash with frowns on their faces. Some of them were 121 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: getting caught up and struggling to go on their way. 122 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: That made everyone sad as they saw how their littering 123 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: was affecting the natural world around them. Levi and Ivy's 124 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: parents each grab some gloves, more garbage bags, and set 125 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: out with Planet Patrol to gather everyone in their neighborhood 126 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: for a very important talk. Once all their neighbors had 127 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: stepped out of their houses and made their way to 128 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: the street, Joseph, Ashley, Levi, and Ivy stood on a 129 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: nearby bench to speak to everyone. They told them all 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: about the negative effects that littering has on the environment. 131 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: Littering may seem like no big deal until it gets 132 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: to this level. Joseph began, just look around. Our neighborhood 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: used to be so beautiful, filled with kids playing outside, 134 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: riding their bikes, and families guardening and enjoying nature. Now 135 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: we can't even walk to the house because of how 136 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: bad it's gotten, continued Ashley, and it's all because we 137 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: thought our little piece of litter wouldn't make that big 138 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: of a difference. Well, it does make a difference. Littering 139 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: any amount can pollute our soil, water and air, said Levi. 140 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: And look around at how unhappy all the animals are 141 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: that live in our neighborhood, added Ivy. Littering can lead 142 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: to habitat, destruction and harm all this wonderful wildlife. It 143 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: was the first time the entire neighborhood had come together 144 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: and heard this message. They immediately looked around at each other, 145 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: realizing that none of them wanted to continue to see 146 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: their neighborhood like this. They knew they'd all be happier 147 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: if things were back to the way they used to be, 148 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: and now they had the entire neighborhood support. Everyone felt 149 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: that it was a task they could take on and complete. 150 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: So they all grab gloves, shovels, and garbage bags and 151 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: got to work. Shoveled up the trash while others sorted recycling, 152 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: and before they knew it, after working all day long, 153 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: the neighborhood was once again litter free and beautiful. They 154 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: could not have been happier at the wonderful work they did. 155 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: Planet Patrol thanked their neighbors for all they did as 156 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: everyone headed home to get a well deserved dressed. Thank 157 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: you so much for not giving up on us, said 158 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: Levi to Joseph and Ashley. Yeah, thank you for helping 159 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: us clean up the neighborhood and see how bad littering 160 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: can be if you don't take it seriously, added Ivy. 161 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: It was so much fun working with both of you today, 162 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: said Joseph. And now that your planet Patrollers, we can 163 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: all continue to keep an eye on our neighborhood and 164 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: our planet to make sure we'd treat it with respect 165 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: and keep it clean for all of us to enjoy, 166 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: said Ashley. Then she and Joseph yawned and smiled at 167 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: our friends with a few high fives, and away they 168 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: turned to leave, walking home on a clean, litter free 169 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: sidewalk as Levi and Ivy walked into their house. Once inside, 170 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivey cleaned up, put on their pajamas, and 171 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: fell into bed, tired from a day of hard work 172 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: of planet patrolling. As soon as their heads hit their pillows, 173 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 1: they were fast to sleep, and when they each woke 174 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: up the next morning. It felt like they had been 175 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: asleep for days, not wanting them to be late for school, 176 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: They had been awoken by their parents calling their names. Levi, Ivy, Levi, Ivy, 177 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: wake up. Levi and Ivy stretched and opened their eyes. 178 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: Was it all a dream? They thought to themselves. Then 179 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: they jumped out of bed, each very excited to see 180 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: what the other had to say. Ivy, did you have 181 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 1: a crazy dream last night, asked Levi. You mean, what 182 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: about our neighborhood being full of litter and us cleaning 183 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: it all up with Joseph Ashley mom dad in the 184 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: whole neighborhood, asked Ivy, that's the one black Levi. Was 185 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: it really all a dream? It seems so real. Then 186 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: their eyes both got wide as they ran to Ivy's window. 187 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: When they looked out, much to their delight, their neighborhood 188 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: was clean and beautiful. Squirrels, chipmunks, and bunnies ran through 189 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: the green grass on the front lawns, and neighbors took 190 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: their morning walks, enjoying the beauty of the nature world 191 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: all around them, a world that Levi and Ivy promised 192 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: each other they'd take care of from that moment on, 193 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy ran downstairs, full of energy and ready 194 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: to talk to Joseph and Ashley as soon as they 195 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: got to school that morning. But they didn't have to 196 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: wait for school. As Levi and Ivy were finishing up 197 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: their breakfast and telling their parents all about their amazing dream, 198 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: they heard a knock at their front door. It was 199 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: Joseph and Ashley standing on their porch with huge excited smiles. 200 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: We had to run over here and ask you a question, 201 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: said Joseph, barely able to control his excitement. Lucky for him, 202 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy knew exactly why they were there. Was 203 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: it about a super amazing dream you had last night, 204 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: one that you were wondering if we had, two, whispered Levi. 205 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: C and Ivy smiled at their friends. Yes exactly, exclaimed Ashley. 206 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: Planet patrol clean up the whole neighborhood, and you two 207 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: said you'd never litter again. We're so sorry we ever 208 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: littered in the first place, thinking it was no big deal, 209 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: said Ivy. We definitely will be signing up officially to 210 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: plant patrol today. Levi and I are so excited to 211 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: work with you both to keep our neighborhood and our 212 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: planet clean. We like what we hear, said Levi and 213 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: Ivy's dad, who had been listening from the kitchen. No 214 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: more littering around here or anywhere else is a great 215 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: promise to make, added Levi and Ivy's mom. The four 216 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: friends then headed off to school, talking about all the 217 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: other things they could do to help care for our planet. 218 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: The rest of that week, they prepared for their school's 219 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: Earth Day celebration, ready to share with their friends Planet 220 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: patrols list of things to do to help your community 221 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: and the planet, things like recycling cans, glass and paper, 222 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: not leaving the water running while brushing your teeth, turning 223 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: off lights to save electricity when you're not using them, 224 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: using reusable items as much as possible, riding bikes are 225 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: walking places close by instead of taking a car, and 226 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: volunteering to help with local cleanups. And On the day 227 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: of the big Earth Day celebration, as Levi, Ivy, Joseph, 228 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: and Ashley walked to school, they saw a candy bar 229 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: wrapper tumbling by them on the sidewalk. Then, as if 230 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: by magic, it was picked up by a guest of wind, 231 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: swirled around in front of them, and dropped perfectly into 232 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: a nearby trash can that sat at the entrance to 233 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: the park. Wow, said the four planet patrollers. Yes, it 234 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: was just a coincident. It's a one in a million scenario. 235 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: But with help like that, and the help of the 236 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: Planet Patrol, Levi and Ivy knew they could make a 237 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: difference because caring for the planet was a habit that 238 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy were proud of, one they were happy 239 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: to show off to others, and one that could really 240 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 1: make a big difference in a wonderful way.
