ADMT Lesson 1 -Bandon

I think that human beings' selfish acts will bring upon Earth's doom unless we take the initiative to do something about it because if we are all selfish we will keep polluting the Earth.In order to save the Earth, we must use the 3Rs.(reuse, reduce and recycle) We can also conserve electricity by turning off all electrical appliances when not in use.we can also save water for example by repairing leaky pipes and taking shorter showers. Everyone must play a part in order to save Earth from a certain doom.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - Iskandar B Dzulkarnain

I think that human's selfish act will bring doom upon us, as for our own needs, we're destroying the Earth and environment around us, once the Earth is gone, we're gone, along with any other species on this Earth.
We can help save the Earth by following the 3Rs, which is reduce, reuse and recycle. We can also help make a campaign to motivate more people to save the Earth.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - Goh Jin Hao

I think human beings would bring about the Earth's doom and we would all die. I think everybody should play a part and recycle or stop using things which cannot be recycled.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment-- Ques 2-- Wei Chern S1-03

We live in a world where natural resources like air and water are being threatened by the onslaught of human activities. Pollution and industrialization have caused the depletion of Mother Nature's reserves at an alarming rate.

What we can we do to save the Earth?

Students may explore the following topics on this theme:

* Conservation

* Pollution (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle)

* Innovations for the Earth

Question 2:

1.­ Pay attention to how you use water. The little things can make a big difference. Every time you turn off the water while you're brushing your teeth, you're doing something good. Got a leaky toilet? You might be wasting 200 gallons of water a day [Source: EPA]. Try drinking tap water instead of bottled water, so you aren't wasting all that packaging as well. Wash your clothes in cold water when you can.

2. Leave your car at home. If you can stay off the road just two days a week, you'll reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an average of 1,590 pounds per year [Source: EPA]. Combine your errands -- hit the post office, grocery store and shoe repair place in one trip. It will save you gas and time.

3. Walk or ride your bike to work, school and anywhere you can. You can reduce greenhouse gases while burning some calories and improving your health. If you can't walk or bike, use mass transit or carpool. Every car not on the road makes a difference.

If you must drink bottled water, recycle the bottle.

4. Recycle.You can help reduce pollution just by putting that soda can in a different bin. If you're trying to choose between two products, pick the one with the least packaging. If an office building of 7,000 workers recycled all of its office paper waste for a year, it would be the equivalent of taking almost 400 cars off the road [Source: EPA].

1. Compost. Think about how much trash you make in a year. Reducing the amount of solid waste you produce in a year means taking up less space in landfills, so your tax dollars can work somewhere else. Plus, compost makes a great natural fertilizer. Composting is easier than you think.

Compost means to use decayed organic material as a plant fertilizer.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment-- Ques 1-- Wei Chern S1-03

We live in a world where natural resources like air and water are being threatened by the onslaught of human activities. Pollution and industrialization have caused the depletion of Mother Nature's reserves at an alarming rate.

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

Question 1: 

To me, human beings' selfish acts will bring about the Earth's doom because during our daily lives at home, we use up alot of Earth's natural resourses. (Eg, watching TV, bathing, driving a car, using air-con, etc, etc) The worse is that other than just wasting them at home, we also use lots of them at work. Some companies, once in a while will emits carb0n and other toxic gases which can cause global warming. (Greenhouse Gases)

ADMT Lesson 1 environment

ADMT lesson 1 Environment-Niloy

The Earth would  be doomed if these human beings continue to do their selfish acts. We can save the Earth by growing more trees, use the 3Rs all the time and conserve our nature resources. With all this, it can be a happy and peaceful Earth.

ADMT Lesson 1 - Environment-Tan Kein Shuen

the most selfish act of human beings is the fact that they take others' resources for themselves. if this continues , the worlds o2 will diminish and suffocate us.we can save the earth by the three rs and all other means of green efforts

ADMT lesson 1-Environment Nadiah

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

Ans: Don't you think the answer is so obvious. Of course, human beings' selfish acts  will DEFINITELY bring about the Earth's doom.

What we can we do to save the Earth?

There are many things you can do to save our precious Earth.

Ans: Conservation

We can save many things in our daily lives. The three r's are " reuse", "reduce" and "recycle".

Reuse-Use water collected from the washing machine to flush the toilet.

Reduce- go for a shower instead for a bath

Recycle-Use recycled plastic bags for next shopping trip to cut down on cutting trees.

    Pollution

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into an environment that causes instability, disorder, harm or discomfort to the eco-system  i.e. physical systems or living organisms. Nowadays, more cars are seen on the road. They emits harmful gases as a results. As there are new CNG cars being produced these days, drivers with their cars using petrol, can change to gas, saving both money and the environment.

   Innovation for the Earth

We can use CNG car more to reduce greenhouse effects as well save mother's Earth. We can invent something more useful in for our future to save both energy and power. By doing our part, i think we can make the world a better place to live in.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment-Koo Bing Han

I think human's being selfish acts will bring about the earth's doom as we are polluting the environment making the 'earth sick'. Even though we have already damaged earth, we still can mend it back. For example the 3 r, reduce, reuse and recycle. We can also use greener source of energy like the wind power, solar power, etc. Actually we can also help just by simply switch off the lights when you are not in the room or to make it better change the bulb to a energy saving fluorescent tube.

ADMT Lesson 1-Environmet Javin Jason Kang

I think that human being's selfish acts will bring doom to earth as these selfish acts will pollute the earth. We can help save the earth by trying to recyle some useful materials such as newspapers or drink cans, we can also reuse some materials such as mineral water bottles or even tin cans. We can also do our part to conserve energy as if we use less energy there will not be a need to burn more fossil fuels and reduce the immision of poisonous gases and we can also conserve water. If everyone does our little part to help the earth i strongly think that the earth has a chance to be saved as reusing and recycling can help to reduce the poisonous gases produced if we do not recycle.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - Nur Nadiah binte Ismail

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

The answer is very clear to everyone. Human beings' selfish acts will definitely bring about the Earth's doom.

What we can we do to save the Earth?

There are many things we can do to save the Earth. 

Conservation

There are many things we can conserve in life, but it is really just a matter of whether we want to conserve or not. There are like an endless list of things that we can conserve. Below are just a few things we can conserve in our daily lives:

-Use the water used from rinsing rice to water the plants.

-DO not wash things in the sink under a running tap.

-Reuse the plastic bags retrieved from shopping groceries for the next time when you are shopping for groceries.

Pollution

Pollution is another huge factor which affects the earth. Pollution can be caused by various kinds of things. For example, pollution caused by cars. We should make use of the advanced innovation of CNG cars which uses natural gas instead of fuels derived from fossil fuels.

Innovation for the Earth

As mentioned above, the innovation of CNG cars would be able to reduce the air pollution, and at the same time, it helps mother Earth to keep running and live healthily. A simple innovation can either bring total doom to Earth, but it can also save mother Earth from dying out so easily. For example, even a simple thing like using solar panels  to generate electricity will be able to cause a huge impact on mother Earth. It helps to save our crude oil from running out.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - Azeem

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

yes it probably will as the earth is a very fragile planet and the natural resources are being drained very fast

What we can we do to save the Earth?

we can use products that are earth friendly and CFC free

CFC free products must have this logo  Or anything else similar

Also simple things like switching off lights and fans can go a long way.The 3 Rs must also be practised

photo from  www.xtratherm.be/ fr/about/quality.php

saving the earth

I think if we do not act now to save the earth, our actions may lead to the doom of our home -Earth.

I think we can play our part by recycling items like paper and plastic bottles/cans and not by just throwing them along the road/pathway as this not only makes the surroundings look dirty and messy but also pollutes the environment by attracting unwanted pest that can transmit diseases.We can contribute to saving the environment by bringing our own grocery bag .Alternatively we can also reuse plastic bags that we get from the supermarket to line our bins or use it as a grocery bag as plastic bags are non-biodegradeble and will harm the environment.We should also turn off all electrical appliances such as fans, lights and TV when not in use to conserve electricity or use energy-saving bulbs.Other things we can do to help the environment include using both sides of a paper , washing clothes with a full load (when using a washing machine) and use CFC-free products as products containing CFC will damage the ozone layer and contribute to global warming.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - gregory chew

In order for us to save the earth and its natural resources, we have to reduce the amount of electricity as crude oil is needed and its limited.  We also need to conserve water as we have very little fresh water.  To solve this problem, we can fine a way to distill sea water.  We need to also recycle more materials like paper, plastic, metal etc.

Environment- Casandra

I truly believe that we, humans, are using too much of the Earth's natural sources. As a result of our selfish acts, we are making future generations suffer from the lack of resources. I think that we should stop polluting and start conserving. Some of the ways that we could help to save the Earth is by using Energy-saving light bulbs,turning off applications when not in use and recycling. By following the above, we are doing the Earth a huge favor.

Casandra Ong

ADMT - lesson 1 (Environment)

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

I think that human beings will bring about the earth's doom soon if we continue in pollution and industrialization.

What we can we do to save the Earth?

We can conserve energy. To do that, we can turn off electrical appliances when not in use etc. We can also reduce the amount of non-biodegradable items, reuse some things like paper and we can recycle too. We can start to come up with new ideas to help save the earth.

Khim Tan

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment- Ho Yan Jin

Will human beings' selfish acts bring about the Earth's doom?

I think it is only a matter of time before we cause the earth's doom if we continue burning fossil fuels, cutting down trees and so on.

What we can we do to save the Earth?

• We can conserve energy and resources. Conserve energy by switching off power sources when not in use. Conserve resources by not wasting them.

• We can put the 3 Rs to use. Firstly, we can reduce our rate of burning fossil fuels, polluting the environment and deforestation. Secondly, we can reuse materials and things that we have used before. Like example, we can reuse plastic bags. Lastly, we can recycle plastic bottles, glass bottles and papers. We can drop the recyclable materials at the recycling point.

• We can innovate for the Earth. It means think of solutions to help the Earth and not lead it to its doom. There are ideas brained stormed by scientists all over the world. The ideas are called Geo-engineering. It involves attempting to cool the climate through planetary-scale actions like blocking sunlight by stationing mirrors in space. Others include seeding the seas with iron to bring the planktons from the seabed to the surface as they can absorb more greenhouse gases, and injecting sulfur into the upper atmosphere to create sunlight-deflecting clouds. But as effective as they sound, they are currently under science-fiction and encounter many setbacks. Even though it is within human means, the cost of building the required things may put the world into bankruptcy.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment-Lucas Chia

    I believe that at the current rate that we, Humans, are using our natural resources, Earth's Doom from Global Warming is imminent.  It is just a matter of time.  We cannot prevent this but we can delay it.  We can do so by conserving our natural resources like Coal and Crude oil and using renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power.  We can also use the 3 R's, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle to help reduce pollution.  As future innovators and entrepreneurs, we can invent and sell a product that will help reduce pollution or make use of another reusable energy source.  Saving Mother Earth is everyone's responsibility and we all must play our part in conserving the beauty of Nature for the next generation.

ADMT Lesson 1 Environment - Ong Wei Xuan Justin

I think human being's selfish acts will bring about the doom
of the earth soon if we keep polluting the earth and do not
take steps to stop carbon emission.
To save the world, we should conserve the amount of
electricity that we use in our daily life by switching off
the lights when we are not in the room etc. We can also
reuse paper by throwing them away only when both sides of it
are used. Also, we should recycle things like washed
bottles.
