Eco Houses

Eco houses they are very cool houses and they don't hurt the environment! here is a picture of one

as you can see they are rather coool!!

when Im older I would love to live in one.Eco houses save a lot of money on your energy bills,water bills.

Lots of houses have heated floors so when its freezing cold in the winter you will not have chilly toes!Most of the houses have double glazing in the windows,Solar Panels,Water Butt in the garden insulation and a ground source heat pump.

Titanic

Titanic-

After setting off from Southport,England the Titanic hit an iceberg on the 15th April, with the loss of over 1,500 lives out of the estimated 1,520 people who died, sadly only 330 bodies were the recovered and 130 were unrecognizable. The tempreture was -2 degrees most passengers died of hypothermia or heart attacks. over 62 percent of first class passengers were saved and just 25 percent were third class that was because first class were on the top of the boat and third class were on the bottom of the ship so it was easier to get to the first class

The Titanic had:

75,000lb(34,000kg) of fresh meat,

25,000lb(11,400kg) of poultry and game,

11,000lb(5,000kg) of fresh fish

40,000 eggs,

8,000 cut glass tumblers

45,000 table napkins

15,000 pillow slips

25,000 fine towels

18,000 bed-sheets

No people have ever been discovered in or around the ship wreck of Titanic,Any bodies that were found have been eaten by fish, anything that is left of the people are their shoes and boots.
