Conclusion

Deforestation

The environmental issue of deforestation and what is the meaning of deforestation Deforestation is the removal of a lot of trees. This can include clearing the land for agriculture or grazing or using the timber for fuel, construction or manufacturing. Deforestation affects the sustainability of the environment on a global scale with developing countries. Eighty percent of Earth's land animals and plants live in forests, and deforestation threatens species including the orangutan, Sumatran tiger, and many species of birds. Removing trees deprives the forest of portions of its canopy, which blocks the sun's rays during the day and retains heat at night and it is not good for the animals.

Firstly, The main cause of deforestation is logging, Illegal logging activities. Wood is used as fuel most commonly and so large amounts of trees are cut down for fuel supplies. Firewood and charcoal are used as fuel. Agricultural Activities, Due to the overgrowing demand for food products, many trees are chopped down for crops and for cattle grazing.

Secondly, What if the Deforestation continues are the loss of trees and other vegetation. Deforestation can lead to a direct loss of wildlife habitat. The removal of trees and other types of vegetation reduces available food, shelter, and breeding habitat. Animals may not be able to find adequate shelter, water, and food to survive within the remaining habitat.

Conclusion, How to solutions deforestation. Plant more trees. Donate some money to the 20 million tree planting (Mr beast). Go paperless at home and in the office. Buy recycled products and then recycle them again. Raise awareness in your circle and in your community. Support the products of companies that are committed to reducing deforestation. It’s all about business. If you don’t buy them, they will be encouraged to improve their practices.

English 30 seconds film (DAY TO DAY)

English; 30-35 Second film (Day 1)

In English, we've started a new topic about a 30-35 long film, we've been divided into the group between 3-4. with Tyra, Subnesh. I think we've had a great start into planning this, trying to explain it is kinda simple we've nearly finished the planning. We are doing Studying one, so one person is studying and the other person is not studying in this film there will be many different shots that I cannot remember, I cannot wait to film this to get this done.

30-second Film - Planning 2
Today we will start rehearsing what we will be doing in the film so when we get round to filming we know what we are doing. We will also have to ask Mrs. Handley for permission to have her in the film. We have to ask the Liberians whether or not we will be able to film in the Learning Commons.

We asked Mrs. Handley if we could have her in our film and we rehearsed what we will be doing on Monday once we have something to record on. So far everything is going smoothly. We still have to ask permission to film in the Learning Commons.

In English we've just about finishing the 30- 35-second film as we only have about two scenes to film now, we couldn't finish the others because we needed a certain person to be in it but they weren't here so we couldn't record it. We had just about finished the last two scenes we are going to begin editing them all together now and next time. overall we were mostly onto filming it, we think it turned out great.

30 Second Film - Day 5


Since we have finished recording yesterday we will start looking at stitching it all together. We will have to get the footage from the phone onto a computer to edit which we will do that today. We also have to decide what editing tool we are going to use.



Subhnesh has decided to do the editing. Although he walked off keeping the rest of the group in the dark about what he was doing and what we were going to do. I looked at a few editing tools we could use.

Humans are displacing other life on the planet, speeding the extinction of many species, including here in New Zealand.


Pr2:
 


Pr3:
Give up plastic bags. Take your own reusable ones to the store. Skip straws. Unless you have medical needs, and even then you could use paper ones. Pass up plastic bottles. Invest in a refillable water bottle,. Avoid plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid.
Use the 3Rs. Don't litter.

1. Explain what is conservation week is ? Conservation Week is a chance to bring everyone together to do something, big or small to create change.Conservation Week is an annual event in New Zealand to promote conservation of native plants and animals. 

2.Why is it important ?Conservation Week is a national celebration that encourages people to get involved in nature and help to take care of it. 


3.explain 3 thing young new Zealander can do to help conserve our plant , animal , environment ? plant trees of the future animal and people , pick up rubbish in sea, create a awareness programmes. 



ESSAY
Conservation Week

A quote from a famous tree said ''Every day I supply oxygen for up to 4 people. Don't you think I am worth saving ''. Simple word the trees trying to say that he give people oxygen and in return people are not carrying about the trees , some people are cutting trees and not planting it back.The tree feel sad . The tree is asking people out am I not to care for you and am i not important to be save .


 Conservation Week is a chance to bring everyone together to do something, big or small to create change.Conservation Week is an annual event in New Zealand to promote conservation of native plants and animals. Conservation Week is important because it will that encourages people to get involved in nature and help to take care of it. I think it's also the time when people and nature with animals , plants meet together to help each other.

Three thing young New Zealander can do to help conserve our plant, animal, environment are Firstly young new Zealander can stop the cutting down a lot tree but take the exact amount  and planting it back. The reason why we don't got a lot of trees pertain the exact is if you cut a lot of trees there would be less place of the animal to live , if less place less animal if less animal no balance in the food chain or wed or if less food chain/wed it mean less animal, plants, people.Also trees gives oxygen to people if the number of trees goes down the number of people will go down  and there will be less people alive. Secondly young new Zealander can pick rubbish(plastic) up from the sea . The reason is if you put rubbish in the sea the sea animal might get stuck in it . Also the plastic can be stuck on the coral , the coral are the home of the sea animal/creature  if the plastic is blocking the sea animal/creature enter the house . The animal can not breeding , can not live and there will die. The coral also stops the big wave however if you leave the plastic the coral and the coral couldn't stop big wave , the coral can not reproduce more corals, the coral can not grow in to the actual size. Thirstily  young new Zealander can create a awareness program on the conservation week to let people know about animal/habitat, plant, environment need your help.Thank you after reading my essay I think you will change to a animal/plant/environment loving and help the animal/plant/environment as me.

Explain-how it works with another technique
Your Link- Another point in the film or a similar film


 Colour is effective in helping to create the two worlds and show the theme 'looks can be deceiving '. The real world study uses a colour palette predominantly  of greys , white and  blues . This creates a cold  , lonely and boring atmosphere. The director did this to show that coraline is unhappy in the real world and that her real father is too busy to spend time with her .  The use of a cold natural light re-enforces this mood. Juxtaposed to this is the use of colour in the other world study . Vibrant red, orange and yellow make the room feel warm , safe and cosy . Selick used this palette to show that coraline is happier in the other onther world where the other father has time for her . This shows that looks can be deceiving because coraline mistakes the bright perfect world for a safe place when really it is a trap .
