19 Year 10 students from Como Senior College met to discuss the things they liked about their community and the things they didn’t like.
The students will be working with an animator and a broadcaster to develop a strategy to get key messages out intot the community about taking care of the environment.
The things they did not like included:
Too Many Plastic Bags
- They need to be recycle
- people need to dispose of them thoughtfully
- they get dumped in the river and animals die because they eat them
- they are not bio degradable
- no one wants to give them up
- they are too easy to obtain
- people throw them everywhere
Too much traffic
Public transport is always late
- They go too fast in residential areas
- People drive when they should walk, ride, cycle or catch public transport
- Deaths on the road are increasing
- Need more car laws – people are too slow or too fast
Trees and Logging
- Wildlife is disappearing
- Too many fires in forests
- Entire forests are being cut down
- Less trees = more pollution
- Pollution kills trees
- Endangering animals due to destruction of natural habitats
- No trees = no oxygen – will we die?
River
- Drought affects the river
- Fish are dying
- Pollution in the river
- Decline in water levels
- Rubbish chucked into the river
- Not safe to swim in
- Not enough care taken to look after the river
- An abundance of boats
- Stray animals get stuck in it
