 The Eastern Pacific Ocean. ( Poster )

End of term wananga blogpost.

 

So for this blogpost is what I had to do in wananga so basically, I had to take myself and thing that represents me and put it into one poster you can read what everything means to me and why I put it in the poster.

So for wananga has been really fun for me I made friends with people I wasn't friends with before and made me have more of an opinion than I did the last 2 years 

Litter ( NOTICE THIS TAKE CHARGE )

 Hi so basically with this it's going to be going through what has been happening with the ocean and how you can start fixing and helping out the ocean.

Through you the years from 1970 all the way to 2021 is people forgetting what the ocean does for us, and what part the whales give for the ocean and how much of it is dying due to the human race.

Coral reefs are dying which gives off food and shelter for the fishes in the ocean causing species to die off little by little and that shows the type of environment that we put the ocean through. 

Without fish means less food for bigger animals because some fish do indeed help the ocean by making plants grow. 

so without the plants or fishes whales and all other types of sea animals would have no food causing them to either die of hunger or think that a piece of plastic is food and eating that instead.

Cause of this whales have been showing up on the shore with a load of plastic left inside of their bodies it is disgusting and we need to start working together to change the ways of people for the better, 

What some people don't know is the fact that whales shoot out a type of bacteria that is good for the ocean and helps it grow so without whales the ocean will become dead more quickly and rapidly. 

Many different types of plastic that get thrown into the streets and left out takes hundreds of years to decompose such as one of the most common ones. 

A plastic bottle these bottles can take over 650 years to decompose. and many other types of plastics takes about 250 hundred years to decompose, 

This being said when people try to call up companies to try and reduce the amount of plastic being used and not recycled they either get hung up on or the opinion doesn't get taken into consideration.

But if we work together and bring normal drink bottles that can be used over and over again maybe we could make a change into whats happening with the ocean.

Aim: To produce sodium chloride salt by carrying out a neutralization reaction.

Equipment: 50 mL and 200 mL beakers, dilute HCI ( hydrochloric acid ), dilute NaOH ( sodium hydroxide ), 25 mL measuring cylinder, a glass string rod, spotting title, Universal indicator solution, tripod, gauze mat, bunsen burner, evaporating basin.

method: Using the measuring cylinder measure 10 mL of HCI and pour it into your 50 mL beaker. Add dilute NaOH a few drops at a time stirring with the glass rod. Every 10-15 drops stop adding the NaOH and use the glass stirring rod to transfer a drop of the solution to a spotting tile. Test its pH using a Universal indicator. Keep adding NaOH and testing the solution by repeating step 2. As you get closer to neutral you may need to test the solution after every drop. Pour the neutral solution into an evaporating basin and evaporate the water out of the solution using the equipment set up shown above.

Observations:

This is the photo we got from the experiment 

Understanding lyrics !! ( Ft. John Lennon )

So for this, I had to choose a song that talks about the Vietnam war and how the words relate to giving hope or peace.

 Ev'rybody's talking about

Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism, Ragism, Tagism
This-ism, that-ism, is-m, is-m, is-m

All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

C'mon
Ev'rybody's talking about Ministers
Sinisters, Banisters and canisters
Bishops and Fishops and Rabbis and Pop eyes
And bye bye, bye byes

All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

Let me tell you now
Ev'rybody's talking about
Revolution, evolution, masturbation
Flagellation, regulation, integrations
Meditations, United Nations
Congratulations

All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

Ev'rybody's talking about
John and Yoko, Timmy Leary, Rosemary
Tommy Smothers, Bobby Dylan, Tommy Cooper
Derek Taylor, Norman Mailer
Alan Ginsberg, Hare Krishna
Hare, Hare Krishna

All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance

This song's meaning is for the Vietnam war and its meaning: they want to all try and give peace a chance and a chance for people to accept the world and come together to make sweet noises and talk about

 different things that happen/happened in the war.

The Beatles ( BeatleMainia )

 So for this blog post, we have to choose a Beatles song and write the name and how it's changed from the songs beforehand and why other people went crazy over this band.

The song I chose is called In My Life vv

Song name: In My Life 

" But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning

When I think of love as something new" This is the lyrics from the song I'm using to back up what I say ) This song talks about someone special that is close to you that even family or friends cant replace. In other words, one true love that can never end. 

This song has changed from the music beforehand because no one dared to sing about boyfriends girlfriends or love so it was a big change in the community and that's where people started to fall in love with the band The Beatles and created the word BeatleMainia for themselves ( Basically meaning everyone went insane over the Beatles it got so bad that they made a name for what to call them ) The Beatles music sounds more upbeat and more alive because before this band came out all the music was, all the same, no special twist to anything, Not something people would get interested in all the bands in 1940 never had any electric guitars or anything to make it there own music.

Overall The Beatles was an amazing band and they made a huge change in freedom and women's rights and made people express themselves as who they are not what they're made to be. 

Thanks for reading my blogpost make sure to comment something to help me make my blog to your liking !! Well till next time.

Oh also in case you wanted all the lyrics 

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain

All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

In my life I love you more
