Finally grade 6 has successfully done the exhibition. There are lots of students coming from other schools. They asked lots of questions, especially about the experiment. Before we show the experiment, we show our animation first about the deforestation. then we show them what will happen if we do deforestation, there will be less rain. They are impressed with our work. They all understand more things about climate change. We are proud of ourselves because we can explain things abiout our research.
What I have learned from my inquiry-into is that climate change is much more dangerous than I usually think it is. Climate change have changed a lot of things. When I was doing a research about the most important factors of climate change, it is mostly from people in the world. People have let out carbon dioxide and many other polution, they have waste fossil fuel, they throw rubbish everywhere and may other things that they have done. Now I know what is actually causing climate change. By this research, I can use less fossil fuel, walk or bike to close distance and many other stuff. There also reasonable benefits to make me even more convinced.

How dumb is he??
What is he thinking? Does he know anything about Global Warming? He is asking why don't the Greenhouse Gasses escape through the hole in the ozone layer? How dumb is he?

Experiment...
Recycling, reducing and reusing is one of the ways to prevent climate change. This is the experiment hat my group and I picked. By doing this experiment, you could get a brand new paper from old newspaper. Read this text below to know how to make you old newspaper into a brand new reusable paper!
Materials:
-Old newspaper
-Blender
-Coat hanger
-Nylon stocking
-Bowl
-Iron
-Cutting board
-Paper towel
Procedure:
1: Gather up old sheets of newspaper
2: Take a piece of newspaper and tear them apart (don’t cut them)
3: Place the pieces of paper in a blender
4: Pour hot water onto the blender
5: Let the mixture flow for about 10 minutes
6: Then turn on the blender at full speed
7: Bend the coat hanger until its shape is like a loop
8: Cover the looped up coat hanger with an old nylon
stocking. This will be our screen
9: Place the ‘screen’ over the bowl and pour the liquid to the ‘screen’
10: Now place the 'screen' between two sheets of paper towels.
11: Take this paper towel sandwich and place it on the cutting board.
12: Iron out the paper towels.
13: Remove the paper towels and peel the paper off of the screen.
And Now You Have A New And Nice Piece Of Paper!

Key Concepts..
The Key Concepts that my group chose Change and Cause. In this post, I will explain to you about these key concepts.
Change:
First of all, I would tell you about the key concept, change. What is it changing? Climate Change has changed our world in many different ways. Maybe you don't realise that Climate Change is changing your life in many different and they do it secretly. Look around you. Is there anything different? There are many disasters, foods are getting less, crops are drying and many other things. Imagine if this could cause less people in the world. How spooky??
Cause:
The second key concept is cause. How is it causing our life and our world? Climate Change can cause our world by different ways. These ways could be making our sources getting less, make the crops dry, taking more water so we have less water, and many other ways. This concept is similar to the concept, change. This would have the same information.

My First Inquiry-Into Definition...
What do you think of climate change? Do you think is it dangerous or its not yet dangerous. I think that you should say that it is very dangerous. Why? Read the information below and you’ll change your mind for sure.
I will give you one example of a place that is dangerous affected by Climate change. Polar Regions are very affected by Climate change. This is because Polar Regions are covered by ice. Many animals depend on ice or cold condition. If the climate there is supposes to be winter, but summer happened, they are not ready to be at a summer time. It that time, ice could melt too. If it melts, it could cause floods because the water level is rising. It could also cause Polar Bear’s extinction. If the ice are to thin, they would break the ice. By that, if there were too many ice break or melt, there would be fewer places for the Polar Bears to take a rest from a long swimming and they could die. If you like Polar Bears, I am sure that you do not want them to be extinct.
So, save the world from now. Don’t just sit there understanding about Climate change only, do something about it. Save Climate change starting from now!

My SecondInquiry-Into Definition...
In this post, you will read an article about my second inquiry-into which is 'The most important factors of Climate Change'. Here are some information about my second inquiry-into.
1. People and species
In the world, people now are getting increase. Before that happens, we were already run out of foods. If now the population of the world is increasing, the foods will be decreasing. People couldn't live without food and water. In this way, people's population could be decreasing. Not only people that are affected, animals are too. If herbivores are gone because of food, carnivore would be gone too because of herbivores. They only eat meat not vegetable or fruits. This is a dangerous situation for our world.
2. Nature causes
Not only people and animals that are affected, nature too. If plants are dried up, they would die. If it is to wet because of too much rain, the plants could die to. Plants are dependable to climate. Fruits and vegetable comes from plants. If those plants dry up, the fruits and vegetable would die too and we will run out of vitamin, nutrition and many other stuff. Now did you realise how bad Climate Change is? Please realise. This is a very dangerous situation that the world and us is facing.
That is all that I can tell you about my second inquiry-into. I am sorry if there are needed things to be added.
