Today the Tipuranga Pod had a guest speaker; Simon
from Wastebusters. We learnt a lot and
were shocked to see the damage that waste is doing to our environment!
Here are some questions (wonderings) that Room 16
thought of after Simon's visit. See if
you find any information or answers to these!
- If we continue to create this amount of waste, what will New Zealand look like in one hundred years?
- What will New Zealand do once there is no more space left at the landfills?
- What do other countries do with their waste?
- Can we make paper out of other resources? (so that we don’t have to harm our trees!)
- How much oil does New Zealand use in a day/year?
- Is there rubbish in space and what problems does it cause?
- How does waste harm animals?
- How does waste harm us?
- How does silica sand turn into glass?
- Where is silica sand found?
I hope we can answer all these questions during our inquiry. Lots to think about.
