Endangered
Animals due to Deforestation and Poaching
Ø Select an
animal that is endangered due to either deforestation or poaching.
Ø Research
and create an A4 information poster outlining the following:
1.
Map where
it is happening?
2.
Why it is
happening (and for which products)?
3.
How badly at
risk the animal is due to the poaching or deforestation?
4.
Which
organizations are currently helping to prevent this and HOW are
they
attempting to do so.
5.
How can we
personally (if possible) take action.

or both. Use your
homework book for information
gathering, drafting and planning your layout.

a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better
.It’s not”.

ReplyDeleteHi Prathna
ReplyDeletefor example: if deforestation is the main threat to your animal - what is being planted in its place? if it's palm oil you could not buy palm oil products; you could sign a petition, join an organisation, tell your school, send $ to those who work in the industry. Check out some of the websites we looked at on Fri pm - they (or other sites like it) could have a 'what you can do' tab. good luck and i look forward to seeing what you come up with.
ps - good quest ;)
GAAH! I'm sooo super-ultra-megu-super STUCK! This is a homework nightmare!
ReplyDeleteHi Klara - what are you stuck with...
