Rubbish

Fish are been affected by people that drop rubbish into drain, which leads down the drain and into the sea, which kills the fish in the sea, which is no good to the fish in the sea.

Rubbish

People throw rubbish, out which goes into the gutter, then into a pipe, which goes into the sea. This can kill sea creatures.

Water Pollution

Faecal bacteria have been found in Tasman’s drinking water. 46 out 68 houses. Had undrinkable water. The council doesn’t know whether it is animal or human faeces. It has possibly come from septic tanks. Houses are starting to install water filtration systems.

Radioactive waste

Radioactive waste created by nuclear power stations remains dangerous for thousands of years.

Rubbish

Rubbish is a worldwide problem.
1. Rubbish can get stuck in animals’ throats.
2. Rubbish pollutes the environment.
3. We are running out of space to put our rubbish.
Do you now how long it takes for a plastic bag to disintegrate in the sea?
It takes 10-20 years before it breaks into smaller pieces and a lot longer before it completely disintegrates.

Climate Change

Did you know, I have been to Franz and Fox Glacier and I found out that since 1937 Fox Glacier has moved back 1 kilometre. If Global Warming continues the Glacier might move back in even less time and will cause the water level to rise and if that happens that would cause floods.

Room 3 as detectives!

One Wednesday Rm3 had a reliever. After lunch we had to pretend to be detectives and solve a crime about a stolen wallet. We got an Identikit (on a piece of paper) and had to draw what the witnesses thought they had seen. Then we got to be a witness ourselves and draw, then describe what we saw. Finally, we made our own Identikit and a suspect. It was really cool!

Solar power

People in New Zealand should use more solar energy instead of wasting power. Solar power uses the heat from the sun. Some people have water tanks on their roofs for the sun to heat their water.

Rubbish

New Zealanders throw 3.6 million tones of rubbish in a year. Which pollutes our land. It is a lot of rubbish that is able to be recycled instead of being thrown out.

Climate Change

The Climate of a region its weather pattern over a long period of time. The weather may change from day to day, but the Climate stays the same. Climate can change over time .Volcanic eruptions may have a sudden, local effect, but deforestation and destruction, of the ozone layer by pollutant gases may have long term effects allover the world.

Endangered animals

Some animals are becoming extinct. They are getting extinct because their homes are getting cut down. When trees are cut down they no longer have a place to live. People have also hunted these animals. We saw panda bears in china they were getting extinct but people put them in pastures and we saw baby pandas and now they may be coming back.

Global Warming

Global warming has a big impact on the world because us humans put chemicals that weaken the Earth’s outer layer so it causes the icebergs to melt which will cause the sea level to rise which will flood the Pacific islands, which will cause people to be homeless.

Global warming

One environmental issue about Global warming is that the world is getting warmer and the icebergs are melting our water levers are getting higher and we and we of land flooding.

Global warming

Global warming is going to be a big problem for as because the sun will melt the ice caps and flood the world, creating hundreds and millions of climate refugees. If action is not taken the world will be worst then both world war 1 and 2. green house gases need to be reduced to about 40% of what they had in 1990.

Global warming

One environmental issue about Global warming is that the world is getting warmer and the icebergs are melting our water levers are getting higher and we and we of land flooding.

FUNDING NEEDED FOR GLOBAL WARMING

Local government needs more funding for lowland water way areas. Due to climate change water levels are raising and the cost is also rising for public safety eg building sites existing buildings playgrounds and parks.

Nonrenewable Resources

Nonrenewable resources are natural resources that can’t be replaced once they are used up. They include natural gas, oil and coal. The issue is that on all of them for a daily living. Our planet is running out of nonrenewable resources because we use a lot of electricity. We also rely on transport that uses large amounts of fuel.

Air Pollution

What understand about air pollution? In winter There has been a lot of fires that Creates smoke which produces air pollution in Nelson. Cars and trucks burning petrol makes smoke that increases the air pollution. Air pollution can kill people. A match can make fire but fire makes air pollution.
