geography adopt ethics
- What would be needed to create it?
We would need to make ads or get someone important in the community to say the message and make people want to care to make our message spread not just in the community but in other cities even other provinces so that everyone can be aware
- What would we have to believe about the environment? How should we see it?
We need to believe that the environment is taking care of us that we really do need the environment we need to work with the resources around us the environment needs us to take care of it and have as much less pollution as possible
- How would we act? – give scenarios
When the city does construction is building new buildings in the community they lack knowledge in the environment and that they are killing living plants that we need to survive
- What would be different about the world if everyone adopted this ethic of care towards the environment? Benefits and drawbacks?
There would be many benefits with better air quality and a healthy animals that that will help the food chain and eating their natural prey and not garbage such as bears there will be draw backs as well instead of creating huge homes we can save forests and not clear them because animals already live in that environment that is their home
- Should we adopt an ethic of care towards the environment?
Yes we should adopt an ethic of care because it doesn’t just help animals and plants in the community it helps humans as well and making our community a better place to live in

What are two examples of food insecurity identified in this movie? What were some of the ways in which the individuals involved coped with their predicament? Were they successful? Why or why not? Two types of food insecurity’s in the video were barbie and her two kids barbie was 2$ over for the food stamp so she was unable to get it but she was still not able to feed her children and her lots. Rosey and her family were not doing to well they were as well not making enough to feed them and living with their grandparents so lots of people to feed in the house.
What specific demographics in our country might be more at risk of experiencing food insecurity? Why are they more at risk? Is there anything historical that might have caused this increased risk? To me I think a huge demographic group who are unable to feed their family is young adults straight away from high school and are unable to have a good job to feed their young children as well as them especially if they did not have a good past and were able to go to post secondary to focus on a career.
What is your personal reaction to this movie? Did you have any pre-existing ideas about food insecurity? Were you surprised by some of the information that was presented? Why or why not? What I thought of the movie that it was devastating to see hard working mothers try their hardest to feed their children and not eat anything so their children wont be as hungry. People need to be more aware of families and yes they look clean but maybe they are not getting the best food choices to keep them healthy and the only thing they can eat is chips. I was surprised when the teacher at school asked the students if they have ever heard of a honey dew melon and few students had their hands up and that we live in a community that not to many children are unaware of fruits.
If you were in a position to directly or indirectly influence the issue at hand (such as a politician or policy maker) what would you do to help? What policies do you think could aid those that are hungry? OR What is a way that you could make a difference today? How would you go about making that difference and change? If I were the man in charge to make sure every child was fed I would insure there is a snack program that hands out apples or apple slices that my schools have done in the past and to me I don’t think the children in school should be singled out and getting more food attention I think no matter what a child does not deserve to be hungry and id insure that these children would have proper meals to eat just like food hampers that our school has done that mothers are able to take care of their family to the best way possible and that a family will be whole and happy.

does caffine stunt your growth?
Ryan Raposo
A myth that has been said to me a lot as a kid was coffee was an adult drink not for children and if I drank some it would make me short and not be able to grow. Coffee does not stunt your growth that is all based on your heritage or your genes but coffee can affect your nervous system the average male will grow until he is 18 or his early 20s a woman will stop growing until about 18 years of age. Studies say “Subsequent studies showed that women aged 65 to 77 who drank about 18 ounces of caffeine daily did have greater bone loss over a three-year period than those who didn’t” written by Michael Franco. O’Connor says Focusing exclusively on children, a more recent study tracked 81 teenagers for six years. The result? There was no difference in bone density between the biggest buzz catchers and those who drank the least amount of caffeine. There has been many studies of coffee and if it stunts your growth or not personally I believe coffee will not do anything to your growth that it was just away of telling your kids to stay away from it because if you drink to much it is actually bad for your health you could be sleep deprived and suffer nervous system damage.
there has been tests on caffeine and how it affects your bones caffeine will not stunt your growth but can give woman osteoporosis which means it will just weaken the bones.
so to me the research that I have found coffee does not stunt your growth but can give you health problems if consumed to much

food waste
I am not much of a wasteful guy I usually eat all my food I never throw food out neither does my family we will save it and keep cool in the fridge and if we go out to eat we will ask for a takeout box and take home and as well keep food in fridge but if we do waste food we will put in compost outside in our backyard and tie it shut so no animals will go through and get them sick and not put food in garbage can and save up on paper plates and straws to help the environment to reduce the consumption use reusable plates glass or Tupperware start freezing foods blanching so you can reuse vegetables for another day. Start preserving food and keeping long time on shelves to save time going to the store and wasting food and money and if making big portions of food give to neighbors or the homeless that way everyone is getting fed and you are not wasting. With green onions you can regrow them so you aren’t wasting if you don’t need them, don’t waste them if you don’t want anymore in your meal you can also reduce wasting by using every part like fruit with lemon peel you can zest it or juice it and just use every part of it. When making meats you can cut them into smaller pieces so you can get more of it but still what you paid for and not using big chunks if feeding whole family
technology is a blessing
https://youtu.be/4iGXWJg16nw
Hi I am ryan Raposo technology is a blessing. “technology is nothing. Whats important is that you have faith in people, that they are basicly good and smart and if you give them the tools. They’ll do wonderful things with them”. Said by steve jobs. you my peers are the target audience for my message.
In our world in order to benefit from technology we need to learn with it and develop tools that will benefit in our everyday problems like scientific researches. Without technology we would never adapt with learning new cures for diseases such as cancer and small pox. my message is to learn with technology to better ourselves and to adapt.
Technology can benefit us in so many ways if used properly and advance our world and better our health. To make it a stronger world for us live in and help others that don’t have technologies as advanced as 1st world countries
Just imagine yourself being at home not having a car to go to the movies or go to the local movie store you could just stay home all warm in your pyjamas in your nice warm bed all cozy when you could just go online on your laptop and just get a movie for free! And not to mention skip the dishes or delivery service without a phone that is not possible how convenient it is
I want the viewers to imagine yourselves waking up in the morning right before work wanting a nice cup of coffee but wait there is no such thing as a coffee maker so you have to boil hot water and grind the beans yourself just for 1 nice cup
In todays world the population is more interested in social media instead of improving the world. we need to use technology to improve ourselves. Even this video was made with technology we need it therefore technology is nothing without us lets not be nothing without the technology- Jake nadalin lets not take technology for granted
