Sustainability is the ability to make are world a better living place and to not affect our ecosystem in any harmful way. There are many simple things that we can do such as growing some of your food. The reason why we do these sort of things is to reduce the amounts of pollution and carbon levels in our atmosphere. In my example it says “ when I is replaced by we, even illness is replaced by wellness”. This means that it’s a lot harder working by yourself, but if you have someone else helping you can accomplish things a lot faster. This can also relate to are goals project. We had to create a goal that can save the environment. My goal was to shower for three minutes everyday for one week. This small thing could not save the environment but it also saves your parents a lot of money. Ever since we watched the movie “an inconvenient truth” it got me thinking of our future. Al Gore said that in about fifty years the temperature on earth is gonna rise a whole lot. I know fifty years seems like a long time but we have to start thinking little bit more about the future to make are earth a better living environment.
Interconnectedness is a big part of are learning. We learned that even If one thing is taken away from us, it can make a huge impact on the world we live in. This can also relate to sustainability, the fact that even one person can impact the world we live in. For example the cycle of matter activity, we learned that if one part of the cycle is not there or not doing what it’s suppose to do, it can affect the whole cycle. Even the smallest change can make a big impact on are earth today. Another example is are mind map, it shows that everything is connected and if one thing is removed it can make a huge impact on everything else. All the projects that we did and the thing that we learned in class shows us interconnectedness because we know that everything in are world is connected.
