Environmental Advertisements

Year 3 are preparing to film their very own environmental advertisements, The three groups have written their own script, created their own props and created a storyboard to plan for their advertisements.

The key elements of their adverts are as follows:

  • clear message
  • simple but interesting
  • minimum 20 seconds
  • maximum 1 minute
  • the advert needs a slogan

Yesterday (Thursday, 31st March 2016), each group went on location with me (Ms. Emma) to have a practice shoot.  Here's how they went! Enjoy!

Pollution: Shanti, Toni, Aurell, Nathalie and Athalla.

Electricity: Lourdes, Meilia, Jeverly, Ravell, Glenn.


Water: Dea, Owen, Sam, Audie.

Meilia's Rescuing Cheetahs

RESCUING CHEETAHS

 

ISSUE:

Quick as the cheetah may be, though, it is far from invincible. The pale-yellow cat with black spots was once a common sight throughout Africa and much of Asia. Just over 100 years ago, there were about 100,000 cheetahs in the world.
But in the the 20th century, that number dropped. Poachers captured cheetahs to sell as pets. Hunters shot them for sport. And people built cities and towns where the cats' habitat used to be. Today, there are only about 10,000 cheetahs left.

SOLUTIONS:


In 1977, Marker moved to Namibia, a country in southern Africa where a once-thriving cheetah population was quickly shrinking. Farmers were killing the wild cats. "It's not that the people wanted to kill cheetahs," says Marker. They were trying to protect their farm animals.
Marker had an idea. She knew that for thousands of years, farmers in Turkey had used special dogs, called Anatolian shepherds, to protect their livestock. These guard dogs scare away predators without hurting them. "They bark loudly," says Marker. "They stand their ground."
About 20 years ago, Marker and her team began placing the dogs on Namibian farms. Since then, she says, "we've stopped the killing and doubled the country's cheetah population."

MY OPINION :

Yes , because if we didn't protect cheetahs, they soon will be extinct.
MY SOLUTION:

Is to not shot cheetahs and their habitats.     To keep cheetahs population.

Glennardy Plastic, Plastic Everywhere

1.Title of the article: Plastic, Plastic Everywhere.

2. This article is about many of products we use today contain plastic. There are 5 items you may be surprised to learn contain plastic: chewing gum, toothpaste, face wash ,baby diapers and paper cups .

3. This article does not give solution.

4. This article tells me that plastic is not good for environment.  We must use less products that contains plastics to save our environment.

5. My solutions to the problem:
    - bring your own grocery bags from home when go shopping to malls or supermarkets.
    - Please don't eat chewing gum because they contain plastic.
    - Use less paper cups. Bring your own cups as they are reusable.


Ravell's Enviroment Article thoughts

                                                         Goodbye,Bamboo
Issue: Endangered giant pandas are facing a new threat: the loss of their food source, bamboo.A new study published in the science journal Nature Climate Change reports that warming temperatures may cause the loss of most of the region's bamboo by the end of the century.
Solution:
 In recent years, China has stepped up efforts to protect pandas from deforestation and poaching. But Liu says the country has yet to consider the long-term effects of climate change in its conservation planning. Aside from increasing nature reserve areas where pandas are protected, Liu wants China to lower its use of fuels that release greenhouse gases—as should the rest of the world. "The future of pandas," he says, "is in our hands.



My Opinion:
Yes because the pollution is making gobble warming so it is making the population of growing not balance so if the population of growing is not stabled the bamboo has to much heat in the population the bamboo will dry out so the bamboo is dry and dead.


My Solution:
Is to make less pollution so the population of the bamboo is growing and to not chop bammboo.
