Food’s 12, Food Waste
Food waste is a major problem in our world today, approximately 1.3 billion tonnes is wasted a year. In my life at home, school, or other activities or places lots of food is wasted. At home, my family usually puts extra food in the compost bin but occasionally uses the garbage. We usually have leftovers after dinner which is an issue we could improve by making less food, or taking them for lunch the next day. When I eat out it usually depends on the dish I order and the size, if I were to go out for sushi I could order a small amount but if I were to go somewhere as I Hop, for example, I can’t finish a whole dish. A solution for this could be taking extra food home to go and have later. At school, I pack my lunch, I bring snacks like fishy crackers or a granola bar, and usually a sandwich or pasta. If I don’t eat all the snacks I just bring them home for another day. I don’t think I waste much food at school but occasionally I can throw extra food away. In conclusion, I believe that I do waste too much food in total and can try to make amounts that won’t leave me with extra, or make sure to compost and recycle the things I do use.
Garibaldi lake task
If you take the average depth (119m) and the surface area (9940m²) and multiply the two together (119 x 9940² = 1182860m²). Then we need to convert the answer (1182860m²) and convert it into Liters to show the liquid value which would be 1182860000L, Garibaldi lakes shape is rigid and not an exact shape so if I were to make an estimation I would guess that it would be about 11750000000 Liters.
If the barrier were to collapse, a large amount of water would escape and would be very strong and dangerous, destroying many things. 1 cubic meter of water equals 1,000 kg and 2204.6 pounds of water. if we were to multiply that with the amount of water in the lake it would be equal to 1.8286·10¹² kg and 2.607733156·10¹² pounds.
One core competencies I used to complete this task was critical thinking. in order to solve the question, I needed to expand my thinking and analyze the situation. I had first tried to figure out an equation that would let me solve the question. then I had used certain websites to find the depth and surface area, finally to get an answer I converted it into liters and then made an estimation based off of my answer.
RAC post
To contribute to RAC week I had opened doors for strangers and I had cleaned up the house a bit for my mom and dad while they were at work, I did these things and didn’t expect anything in return. I noticed when I would do this random act of caring many people smiled and thanked me, it felt very nice to do an act that made somebody happy or feel better. I would definitely do this again and try and fit it into a daily routine, next time I might try and do something with a bigger impact, like pay for someone else’s meal. It showed me that I can make an impact by being kind, even if it is just a small act it still impacts somebody.
DNA model
explain:
Deoxyribonucleic acid otherwise known as DNA is stored in the nucleus of every cell, except for red blood cells, which lose their DNA as they grow. DNA chooses the genetics of individuals such as sex, appearance, and viruses. Humans inherit one set of 23 chromosomes from their mother and another set from their father. Females have two X chromosomes where as males have one X and one Y.

Narrative Essay
What does Reconciliation look like?
What does reconciliation look like?
What does reconciliation look like? What does reconciliation mean? Reconciliation is the restoration of friendly relations. When people forgive but never forget, and acknowledge the past but move forward. it is to not make excuses or blame others, it is to listen to what people have to say and resolving conflicts. Can reconciliation resolve and heal? And can it make up for even the worst events that occurred in history? We can find these sources in books and Canadian history where lots of forms of reconciliation occurred. I think reconciliation looks like forgiveness and bringing back lost friendships and relationships that were lost or forgotten.
