Population & Resources (Essential Questions 4&5)

4. What are the effects of humanities counsumption of the worlds resources?
Answer: Well, I think the countries that have enough money to counsume the worlds resources. Those are the countries where the people get a lot of more resources than they are supposed to get just because they have a lot of money. For example US is getting a lot of resources that they are supposed to be getting. And they are getting all that benifit just because they have a lot of money. But China and India Have more population than US but they are just using the resources that are needed for the people in that country they don't go on buying more things than that is needed. So if US buys so many extra resources then the countries with really less money can't afford important and necessary resources for the people in their country and in the other side countries like America are spending their money on unessary resources.

5. What are possible solutions to problem associated with the population trends and use of resources?
Answer: The massive growth of population can be slowed down a little bit if people did a little bit of family planning before taking a really important or big step in their lives.
And I think countries should only use the amount of resources that is need for their country, and not buy extra resouces that are not really needed for their country and they are just buying it because they have enough money to buy it. But they should give the money to the countries that need it and not waste in on useless things.!!!

Population & Resources (Essential Questions)

Big Understanding
Population trends impact earth's finite resources and have far reaching effects for our world and its people.

Essentinal Questions

1.What are the population trends around the wprld and what factors are influencing those trends?
Answer: - The population trends around the world are: -
The population trends to spread around in place which have sufficien food for the people in that place. And as people move to those places with the sufficient places that place runs out of the important needs.

2. What is being done to stabilize global population growth?
Answer: - Many types of family planning are being done nowdays so that people can plan of having a less amount of children. The children less amount of children mean from 1-5 nowdays and it is said that we can help the overgrowth of the population like that because in the olden days people used to have 13-20 or more children in one family in Asia. It is said that pople try to have as many children as possible so that they can increase the population of their religion. And also in some places in Asia girls have to marry in a early age. This is most followed in India and Bangladesh. And early marrige is also risky for the lady and her child. If a girl gets preagnant in a early age they girl can also die.

3. How are resources distributed and utilized?
Answer: - The earth has a huge population and the earth also has sufficient food for the people living on earth but not every one still gets food. A lot of earth's population just sleep starving and the people that get food are the people who are from high class families or middle class families but people from the poor class family who cant afford food for the day have to sleep hungry even though there are enough food for everyone alltogeather.

Second Blog Question :)

The Revealers

In the novel, The Revealers, the students of Parkland Middle felt connected through SchoolStream or as the students called it KidNet where they were able to chat or instant message. Most of you do this nightly through MSN Messenger. With KidNet and MSN nobody could break into or eavesdrop on your conversation without it being known. Not anymore. Today’s technology allows you to assume the identity of another person. Do you really know whom you are talking to in the cyber world?

It is 10:00 pm on a Wednesday night; you have finished your homework and you are chatting on MSN with three other friends. After 10 minutes two more friends ask to join the chat. By 10:30 pm five more people have joined and it is fun; however, there is a joke said about one of the people, rapidly followed by an insult. At first, no one knows how to respond, then seconds later a message pops up stating, “I didn’t say that! It isn’t me saying these things. Someone is using my name. What is going on here?”

What is the issue involved in this scenario? Why is this serious?

What would be a responsible way to handle this situation?

How could a situation like this be resolved? How would one of the three main characters from The Revealers deal with this situation?

Answer: The issue involved in this scenario is that First a friend is insulted and then the person that insulted the other person says that they didn't write the insult and someone else did. I think sometimes people do that by mistake and later they realize that they did something worng and now they can't think or find any other solution to say sorry about their mistake and so they just say that someone else was there in their MSN account.
Just tell the truth that you actually said what you said and you didn't mean to say that and you are also really sorry for what you said.
Sometimes this is not going to work out properly but you are going to be happy and are also going to feel nice that you told the truth to you friend.
THANK YOU
