Global Warming’s Rising Threat to the Paradise of the Maldives
This article is about the volcanic islands of Maldives. The ice capes which are melt because of global warming, are flooding the island. Maldives is only 2.4 meters above sea level, and if the water continues to raise at this rate the whole island will flood. The flooding will also cause many other problems, such as sand erosion and more storms.
I think that this is a big problem because it could cause many people homeless. It also causes it to be gone from existing, it would be gone forever and no one will remember. What concerns me the most is that it isn’t even the Maldive fault! Industrialized countries; such as China, are the main creators for global warming, they use fossil fuels and gasoline to power their factories. The Maldives should not suffer for the problem other created.
Picture/Video from the class web do you agree with the jury’s verdict? why or why not? Incude at least 5 facts from evidence that was presented during the trial
I agree with the jury’s verdict because KMT is actually real. I believe this because of the few trials we conducted , such as the food coloring trial. The food colouring was actually had molecules that bounced around causing the food coloring to spread.
What was your job? Explain how you fulfilled your responsibilities.
During the trial I was an expert witness. I was there to prove that KMT wasn’t real. I was called up by the defendant to be cross examined. They asked how the food coloring sank to the bottom and I told them it was because of gravity. They also asked why the food coloring spread. I answered that when the food colouring impacted the water it caused it to break into a million parts. This theory made sense because the solar system was also made the same way.
If you could do a different job during the court case which would you volunteer for and why?
I would be a photographer because I can use a camera.

A few weeks ago. I read a book call “The other Side of Truth.” After reading this book our sumative was to create a movie or presentation on refugees. I choose to do my project on North Korea, and was paired with another class mate.
Since the instructions didn’t allow us to talk while we presented our movie, we had to do a voice recording. My partner selected our voice records and put them into slides. We also had to use a green screen. The green screen was different from the one from last year, since there was a room instead of a cloth this time. We didn’t really know how to use the lights, so our faces were very dark.
I liked how we got to organize our script on a google doc, because it helps us decide who was presenting and what to show in each slide, but I wish there was a longer time to make a movie. One thing that slowed me down the most was that we were also doing our humanities heritage site movie. It was very annoying to find where I put my information because both of them were movies and both used google doc.
My partner and I’s work was separated pretty evenly, but my partner did all the editing on the I-movie, since we did it on his computer and it was a weekend.
