Making Adjustments

In the Kakapo class we have been learning about how put a solution to help the animals in the oceans to survive in the great pacific garbage patch we started by reading a powerful book that guided us to research, we all watched a video about sustainability which had a powerful message. The great pacific garbage patch is a place where heaps of over 1.8 trillion pieces rubbish is it is located at the coast of California wraps around to Japan then around and it is twice the size of Texas the biggest state of America.

In Kakapo we adjusted one part of our contract so that we can write a letter to the big businesses to make a change to their use of items that they sell for example were looking at mcdonalds probably the biggest fast food chain in New Zealand to use sustainable products currently their using plastic straws and plastic cups which is not Eco friendly.

  1. Hi James. So interesting to be able to read about your learning with the garbage patch. It horrifies me that we have caused so many issues in our marine world with our rubbish. With the action that you are taking to write to organisations, I am sure we will see some positive change. Keep up the great learning James! Mrs Carey
