#1 Florida elementary school kids sent to ER after eating weed candy: by Cheryl S. Grant https://infoweb-newsbank-com.lp.hscl.ufl.edu/apps/news/document-view?p=WORLDNEWS&t=pubname%3AGSGB%21Gainesville%2BSun%252C%2BThe%2B%2528FL%2529/year%3A2019%212019/mody%3A0910%21September%2B10&f=advanced&format=text&docref=news/175E485A39BDC4D0 Nine elementary students in a Broward county school accidently took THC-infused candy.

My product is to provide more sustainable alternatives to commonplace products to reduce climate change effects. My solution to decrease climate change is to have products and architecture with lower carbon emissions.
