Activity 1: Off the Menu [4 points] (To see the questions go on the summer learning journey site).
Wow did you know that you will get a very expensive fine for over fishing! Today i will be telling you if i think this rule is right or not. I think this rule is appropriate in a matter of fact because sea life may stop growing. Also you could damage the fish if you try to catch it but don't catch it. Also you never know if this keeps going on (over fishing) in the future their could be no fish in the world. But that's what i think. What do you think?
Activity 2: The Black Drain [4 points]
My 2 rivers i will be writing about are Tukituki river and Waikirikiri (Selwyn) river.
Tutkituki river is located in the eastern North Island of New Zealand. They are trying to protect it by treating the black growth on rocks in the water.
Waikirikiri (Selwyn) river is located in the South Island of New Zealand. It has once been said that Waikirikiri (Selwyn) river will be soon cleaned so people can visit it, there is no more information due to further confirmation ideally. Activity 3: Faded Glory [5 points]
In the East Coast of Australia is the world largest coral reef (wow!) Shockingly it is made out of 2900 reefs! Some people believe it is millions of years old including myself. Thankfully the Australian Government is working to preserve and protect the reef! But they have to pay 20 million dollars every year here is what i could do to fundraise/earn money to proudly donate to them! Some ideas on how i could fundraise is by asking each person to donate at least 5-10 dollars. You could also donate yourself (money). Or you could make a lemonade stand or save up money for a year (like me) it is all completely your decision.

Blog you later!
Kia Ora Luseane,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your opinion, I too think it's fair to get a fine. Overfishing is a serious problem and like you said a lot life depends on having fish in our waters. There are also rules around what kinds of fish you can take home. Did you know that if you catch a fish that is undersized, you must place it back in the water?
You have added some information about one polluted river; Waikirikiri. Please make sure you are really careful with information you find online, remember to try hard to put it in to your own words. I did some research of my own and could not find a 'Hawkes bay River'.
Hawkes bay is a place in New Zealand that has many rivers, maybe you could find one located there and add it to your post along with info about what is being done to clean it up. I will be happy to give you full points for this activity once you have done this.
You seem like a very generous person, the idea of donating is nice. It helps lots of causes in the world when people come together to help!
Keep up the good work Luseane.
Toe feiloa'i fo'i,
Cia.
Hi Cia, wow i didn't know that! Tutuki river is one of the main rivers in Hawkes Bay i believe. I will edit my work, thanks.

Hi Luseane,
ReplyDeleteWell done on finishing these Summer Learning Journey activities. I disagree with you. I think that people who overfish should be fined but 100,000 dollars is ridiculous. No one should be made to pay that much for taking more fish than they needed. Anyway, keep up the good work.
