Boyan Slat & The Ocean Cleanup -- Koko

 This week, we have studied and considered about cleanup the ocean. I didn't know that the technology for solving serious problem about climate change developed more than I imagined. 

 When I watched about the system to collect garbage which flow on the surface, I was surprised that the net could get a lot of waste of plastics and I realized again people include me are littering in the ocean or beach. 

 I think it is good way to collect garbage with the huge net. However, I thought it is hard for workers on the ship. But, on the other hand of my opinion, some workers seemed enjoying this working when I watched other video. I understood that each workers rewarding as it led to environmental improvements. 

 I thought we shouldn't rely on the system or workers like this. We have to happen action to improve problem of ocean as soon as possible.

    I guess worker's minds are fluctuated. If I were them I would miss my family.

The Ideal School: My Vision -- Riko

                  Since before, some people consider that academic subjects (math, science, biology, history, geography, etc.) are the most important. In addition to this, these days, the 4Cs (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication) are regarded as essential. Although it is true that these subjects and perspectives are extremely important for life, I suppose that it is also significant to learn skills and abilities at a school to live independently.                 This kind of school would have high quality of teaching about housework as much as academic school. Students at the school could learn how to cook, grow plants, make and fix things with some equipment and tools such as kitchens, electric drills, etc.). One of the advantages of this style is that the students would not tend to be bored because they can learn about many fields widely. Moreover, these skills are essential to live by oneself. One of the reasons of this is that doing things by oneself c

I’m Jimmy from Taiwan. I came to New Zealand to learn English, experience different lifestyles, and try working abroad using my working holiday visa. Now I am in homestay in Green Island with the Morris family. This is my second time in New Zealand. Last time in Dunedin I just passed through this city, but now I have joined the general English course at the University of Otago. By learning in a foreign university environment, I want to improve my English level to increase the chances of future employment. By the way, It also means that I could have more time to appreciate the beauty and culture of Dunedin. So far I found there are a lot of attractive Scottish style architectures and nature sceneries, and I think the weather in Dunedin is very changable. I have already finished my Masters Degree in food science and biotechnology. My favorite subject was food chemistry, because I could understand the principles of how food changes. I like to play badminton, tennis, go mountain climbi
