They paved paradise and put up a parking
lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging
hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till
it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking
lot
They took all the trees and put 'em in a
tree museum
And then they charged all the people twenty-five
bucks just to see 'em
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till
it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking
lot
In Big Yellow Taxi, a Joni Mitchell
song, we are faced with the nightmare of
an environmental future of deficits. Many
things have changed since that song from
1970, but is it enough? This site
is the result of a study completed by my
AGM students. AGM is a gifted and talented
program at Pine Tree Independent School
District in Longview, Texas. This acronym
stands for Academically Gifted Minors.
