Aim: To learn practical ways of recycling so that we can make our world a better place.



Video questions:

What has human activity done to our planet?
human activity has created unnatural.


What is Zero Waste?
Definition:one of the quickest and cheapest ways a community can immediately reuse

What stuff has a carbon footprint?
tooth brush,phone,bottles,bags,clothes cars lost of things.

What are 4 easy things to help our planet?
  1.  reduce  
  2. reuse  
  3.  repair
  4. redesighn
What do we need to recycle?

  1. bottle
  2. electronics/fix broken things
  3. plastics
  4. sharing porduts

What does recycling do to our planet?
it realises co2 emission

How much of our rubbish is made up of food scraps?
50% grass clippings leaves and branches
What does methane gas do to our planet?
it traps a lot more heat 84x more.

What does soil do to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?pulls carbon dioxide down from the atmosphere


What do using zero waste practices do to our planet?
it reduces co2 emission put scraps in the soil




    What is a carbon footprint?

    how much carbon

    What is your Carbon Footprint?


    You are now going to look at your own carbon footprint by taking a questionnaire. Remember to 'Add details to improve accuracy'.

    Based on the questionnaire what is your:

    1. Ecological Footprint
    2. Carbon Footprint

    How many planets did you have?




    What is your personal Earth overshoot day?

    ENERGY SAVING TIPS FILM


    Name 4 of the tips.

    MY INVESTIGATION.


    Image result for rates of decomposition



    • Choose 6 items from the list.
    • Investigate them using Google.
    • Answer the 4 questions below.


    Name: 
    1. How long does this resource take to decompose?
    2. What resource / fossil fuel are they made from?
    3. How does making this object contribute to climate change?
    4. How is this resource recycled?

    The Water Cycle: Bag 1
    CO2 Water Cycle: Bag 2
    Acid
    Desert Water Cycle
    Bag 3
    Does it cycle? yes
    yesyes
    Amount of Water 2
    22
    Acidity 1
    31

    Key: Water and acidity amount: 1 = none 
    2 = small 
    3 = large 



    other comments
    1.bag 1 cycled water.
    2.bag 1 had a small a small amount of water .
    3.The acidity in bag 1 was low.
    4.bag 3 cycled water.
    5.bag 3 had no acidity.
    6.bag 3 had a small amount of water.
    7.they all cycled.
    8.they all had no acidity.
    9.they all had a small amount of water.


    conclusion
    1.bag one did cycled it was not acidity and had a small amount of water .
    2.bag two had the same result as bag one i think that was predicable but had more water.
    3.bag three did cycle and had no acid still the same as bag one but not bag to because of amount of water.

    materials:
    1.water/soda water
    2.bag
    3.food colouring
    4. litmus paper
    5.marker pen
    6.sand

    steps:
    1.get materials
    2.draw the water cycle on the bag
    3.get water/ soda water (put in bag) one cup
    4.put two drops of food colouring in the water
    5.hang the the bag on the window
    6.BAG TWO add litmus paper




    Draw a labelled diagram of the Water Cycle

    Water cycle words:
    1. Precipitation
    2. Hurricanes
    3. Acid rain
    4. Evaporation
    5. Carbon Dioxide
    6. Water
    7. Deforestation
    8. Water vapour
    9. Transpiration
    10. Flooding



    TODAY YOU WILL BE INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS THAT CLIMATE CHANGE HAS ON THE WATER CYCLE.

    WATCH THIS VIDEO AND COMPLETE THE INVESTIGATION.

    THE BIG PICTURE

    • What animals keep our jackets warm?
    • cotton silkworms sheep 
    • What animal makes our boots waterproof?
    • ducks and cows
    • Where does the water in our rivers come from?

    • melting snow rivers 

    • Why do we need healthy rivers?we need them to keep the animals alive and humans 
    • because we wont have drinkable water.
    • What are some of the good things about mosquitoes?they clean the the water and are food for fish

    • Why are bees dying?because of pollution in the air 
    • What do bugs do to our leaves
    • Reduce
    • Reuse
    • Recycle
    • How much dung would we be in if there were no dung de- composers?
    • Ew 7 feet
    • Who runs this planet?
    • umm the bugs and nature.
