Earth Hour Response:
ReplyDeleteI agree with the message because hour hour is not enough for people to realise that there even is an Earth event going on. The video we watched in class is promoting Earth hour very well, but not very many people will see it. The comics message is very strong and a lot of people will get the message. Humans have done a lot to the Earth, the boiling pot represents Global Warming. The only thing we can do to stop it is to turn off our power, but what is happening is that people don't turn off their lights or they turn them right back on when the hour is complete. Therefore, I agree that Earth hour should be extended.
Hi Ms Swanek, as you know i was not here today so i was wondering what the homework was for tonight (:. anyways have a good night! hope to see you tomorrow (:

I do agrre with the message being sent threw this comic. The comic is stating that the amount of time we turn off our electricity is not enough to actually make an impact to global warming. Juring earth our we are all ecofrendly but at the end of that one hour we just go back to killing the earth. They show this because the earth is in a boiling pot of water and he has unpluged his stove for earth hour repreenting that the earth stops boiling up from global warming for the hour of earth hour. The man is getting ready to plug the stove back in and he is counting up the minutes till earth hour is done. This is saying that whe earth our is up we go back to killing the earth. So in conclussion this message is correct and if we want to stop global warming and have a healthy, stronger, and long living earth we must do way more than one hour of one day each year.
