Hello, I am Norman Orsette, and this is my podcast, “The Golf Show”, where I will be explaining the game of golf in its entirety. The game of golf can be complicated and stressful but also can be relaxing and simple. Golf is sport that is played worldwide and is very easy to learn. Golf is something that if you learn young you can be great and even if you don’t learn it young it’s so easy that you can learn at any age. Golf is one of the few sports that you can play for the rest of your life because it doesn’t involve a lot of stress on any particular body part. Golf is a sport that I’ve grown up playing and love it more than anything, it’s a non contact sport that requires a strong mental ability but allows you to have an enormous amount of fun.

Segment: Some rules and ways to learn golf Minutes: 2 minutes 30 seconds
Golf has many rules that make up the game, the basic rules are; you cannot pick up your ball until it is in the hole, you must count every stroke, you must start every hole from the designated location, and you are only allowed to have 14 clubs in your bag at a time. This is only a brief overview of the rules, there are many more especially when you get competitive in this sport. There are many ways to try and learn this fun and exciting game of golf. You can take lessons, which is probably the easiest way to learn it, or you can just go with it and learn as you go. After talking to Joe Johnson, golf pro and certified golf teacher, he told me that to get into this game and really enjoy it you have to put your heart in it and be very dedicated. He told me that there are tons of courses and ranges that offer lessons and provide great services to you throughout the country. He works at the Golfsmith store in canton and has been my trainer for the past year, he really knows his stuff, anything you ask him about golf he pretty much has an answer for it. If you are looking to get serious in this wonderful game of golf then you should look on the internet for the closest range or course and take action on taking some lessons or just getting out playing. Once you start you will love this sport so much that you will want to play every day.

Littering
Littering in parks is a problem in all of the United States. Since I cannot focus on all of the United States, I will focus on the surrounding Detroit area. The local and national parks in the surrounding Detroit area are suffering from problems such as littering, but this is a problem that can be solved. Littering can cause many problems such as land, air, and water pollution.
One problem that many local and national parks in the surrounding Detroit area face is land pollution. Land pollution is mostly caused by littering. Littering is one of the biggest problems that cause land pollution but it is one of the problems that can be taken care of with dedication and a little force. Many local parks have restraints on what you can bring into them but rarely are they enforced and many parks have places to dump your trash or recycle your bottles but people are just lazy and don’t fear the threat or respect the park security. This is why laws should be enforced more and people need to be fined for their actions. Fines are already very large but rarely are they enforced. If the state would step in and force the law I believe that land pollution could be reduced considerably. If we do not take action soon all the activities that we enjoy on a day to day basis will not be possible because the land we live on and enjoy will be so polluted that it will be dangerous to go around it.
Another problem that not only parks face but also the whole world is air pollution. Air pollution is created from many things such as car exhausts, industry smoke, and simple things like littering. Littering is probably the easiest thing out of all of these to try and fix even though it is still not very easy. By reducing littering you will reduce the everyday items just lying around our streets and in our parks that give off all the hazardous fumes that cause air pollution. By reducing littering you reduce air pollution, therefore create a better environment not only for humans to live in but all life. If we could even reduce littering by a small percent each year it would make a huge difference in the long run and even though it would be nearly impossible to totally stop littering it would make a tremendous improvement in our environment and make for a healthier world to live in. So if we can help our parks out and keep them litter free it will not only help them out but it will help out our whole country.
Water pollution is also a huge problem that our local and national parks face. Water pollution is probably the worst type of pollution because nothing can survive without water; almost everything has something to do with water. Almost all local and national parks have a river or body of water that runs through them. Littering is like the second leading cause of water pollution. If we could reduce littering it would be a huge step toward cleaner water. Even though people may not litter in water it still affects the water, because even though the garbage may not be near the body of water its harmful materials eventually make it to the water because of runoffs and sewer systems. The hazardous materials go along the sewer systems or runoffs and wash into the rivers or bodies of water and pollute them. By reducing littering it will help reduce pollution and create a cleaner water system for our country.
If we reduce littering it would not only make our national and local parks look better but it would help reduce the three most common types of pollution; water pollution, air pollution, and land pollution. This would be not only be a huge step towards a cleaner environment for the surrounding Detroit area but for our whole country.
