Yesterday on Thursday the year 7&8s went to tech at Grey High. My classes were science and sewing. In science we had to make a parachute for an egg that we had to drop from 5 or 6 meters. I forgot to grab an egg but there were none left anyway, so I used a rock and it didnt break. After that we had sewing where we made a little bag, mine went really well until it ripped half way through. We are changing classes next term and I hope my classes are cooking and metalwork.

Environmental problems

Believe it or not, but animal extinction is one of the biggest problems in the world.
My only reason is, why we should kill less animals.
We should eat less animals because we are killing endangered species for “exotic” meats, some of the endangered animal we kill for food are:
African forest elephants, giant Chinese Salamanders, and fin whales (all of these animals are on verge of extinction).
Also the less endangered animals are being killed more and more each year, in 1970 we had 100% of vertebrae animals, in 2020 we have lost more than 60% of that population, some vertebrate animals include: lizards, turtles, sharks, and snakes.
Most of the endangered species are in trouble because of people cutting down forests, and wildfires. but, sometimes animal extinction occurs naturally (loss of genetics).
Animal extinction can also have a chain reaction by messing up the food chain, this concludes my presentation on why we should not kill endangered animals.
