Minecraft Solution Fluency
My plan: Ocean pollution is very serious because it can effect humans and animals and can cause a huge defect in our environment; I wanted to create something that could impact our planet. Another way to prevent ocean pollution is to use bikes or public transportation which takes up about 25% of green house gases which if you think about that is a highly low amount of gas being spread.
Design: I found a lot of things about ocean pollution during this assignment, I wanted to create something that could benefit our environment and make our oceans cleaner for humans and animals.
Deliver: Edublog
Unfortunately I had some trouble uploading the video to flipgrid, edublog is where my whole project is layed out.
Debrief: Throughout this project I had a few issues that came my way, for one I had trouble posting video because of the time limit; and 2 I kept messing up during the filming and finally got one that I could live with. I had an idea of putting boarders around the oceans but I decided not to go that route; During this project I decided the underground filter bus was the best route to go on.
Facts about this ongoing issue: Acccording to my research the top most affected oceans suffering pollution is the Mediterranean ocean, Indian Ocean and the pacific.
Animal extinction can happen during pollution which is why ocean and general pollution are very serious: other sever side effects are cancer, infections and miscarriage. Now as much as these situations are extremely serious there are ways to help out and prevent this from being severely harmful and dangerous. Reduce littering and practice proper garbage/ recycling/ sorting and properly sorting food scarps into a food waist bucket to decrease the chances of pollution.
DREAM
Do your part and help out in any way you can.
The government should be more cautious about plastics and garbage surrounding the ocean.
Being more educated and seeing how this affects our environment and including our planet as well.
I forgot to mention that chlorine is a very strong chemical and can kill bad toxins that are harming our oceans with such dangerous bacteria. There’s many good chemicals that can do the job and make sure that no bacteria is being released.

Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated:)
Great Job! I agree that keeping the ocean safe is super important and it’s something we should be aware of. You explained the whole process very well and it was really easy to understand 🙂
Thank you so much Tamie!
you did a great job of explaining and you were very clear. one question though, how does oxygen help the ocean?
Thanks for your comment Savannah and thanks for your question! Oxygen can help improve the ocean by killing bad bacteria and releasing the oxygen to help animals breath clean air in their environment:). Chlorine is also a good chemical that can be used as well.
What a great idea to create a vehicle that can filter out pesticides in Minecraft to innovate in the area of climate change. I think your creation is fantastic. Great work responding to the feedback you received on Flipgrid by giving more information about what kind of chemicals you are targeting. The video of your innovation is clear and embedded it into your post. Great job including information about climate change and citing your sources. Good work!
Thank you so much Mr.Robinson!
