-Describe scientific basis, if any, for movies plot
The main character’s dad is a scientist who is working with the
government to come up with a soloution for climate change
-To what extent would it be reasonable to worry about this
happening?
I would say it’s pretty reasonable, climate change is kind of in the
back of everyone’s mind. We can’t expect it any time soon but I
think it could be expected -if we didn’t change our ways- sometime
in the next century.
-Invent an ‘apocalyptic’ scenario storyboard based on the science in
your course.
I will probably do this next semester if that’s okay…?
P.S. Other movies on this subject are Walle and The City of Ember
Today, I watered and measured the sprouts. They almost all have doubled in height and some more than that. I replanted seeds in the chemically fertilized soil because I found a way that might help it drain better. I hope Kayla gets better so we can finish our presentation!
Moby Dick is getting along with the other fish. He’s looking thinner and smaller everyday. And the others are picking on him, knocking him around and such. We put him in solitary confinement, but I don’t want to get my hopes up.
We arrived this morning to find bits of green in pots 1, 2, 3, and 4. They could be weeds, but I’m not taking any chances. I watered and measured each one of them, the ones with compost in them are the biggest. The ones with chemical fertilizer (5 and 6) didn’t even sprout! Thesis correct?
The smallest fish, Macho, Sophia and I have decided to dub ‘Kiss of death’ because of his unique-to-the-tank black mouth. Funny stuff aside, I got Kayla to get some of the pictures for our final presentation. I am really feeling like she’s not doing very much. I hope she’s is aware that I’ll need her pictures and writing by Wednesday at the very latest, or I won’t be able to make-up the power-point in time to hand anything in.
Today I watered the plants and caught up on my English. Not to much to write about
Today I filled out Kayla’s and my inquiry planner and layed out what I was thinking presentation wise. My job here on, is to take care of the plants and record any observations.
Today I checked the water level in the soil and marked out how much to water them on Wednesday (every 5 days).
Over the course of yesterday and today, we planted the seeds, recorded what was put in the soil and watered the plants. However, I feel that a number of things have been left unaccounted for, for example, we planted different types of lettuce under different brand names and we only used two of many types of chemical fertilizer. So whatever our results, they will not be completely accurate. All that remains to do now, is watch.
Today the fish got some pebbles for the bottom of their tank. Kayla brought Some compost for our inquiry but forgot the chemical fertilizer, so we are aiming to start tomorrow so that we start all the lettuce at once. We wrote all our questions and hypothesis’ on the white wall and began making charts to record any growth over time, accounting for the different variable, i.e. water, fertilizer, heat/light. Tomorrow we start business.
