         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>What information do you need for your audience?<br></strong><em>We need reliable information so we can show our audience the truth about whaling and how much whales die every year. We also have to show them how many whales have died each year so we can show them if the death rate is going higher or lower so they will be connected and maybe support us. With also need to tell them what we are doing and why so if they like it they can support us.<br></em><br></div><div><strong>What events should they know about?<br></strong>They should know about how many whales die every year and why it’s bad for the environment and why it’s good to keep whales. If we tell our audience this they might support us because they know what we are dealing with. They should also know the most amount of whales killed in a year and protest against that.<br><br></div><div><strong>What indicators should you use to educate your audience?<br></strong>We do research and share it with random people and ask what do you think about whale and we will give theme a survey about what they personally think about whale and we will raise awareness and we will be able to start taking action.<br><br></div><div><strong>What are the important trends and relationships?<br></strong>The important Trends for whale blubber is really high because it is what whales are known for and also whale oil. This is Important because Whales are getting killed for this and the Japanese government support this because they say it’s a culture to kill whales.<br><br></div><div><strong>What human actions must change?<br></strong>Human action needs to take place by not killing to much whales a year and keeping them because it’s a huge part for our food chain and we need to educate people who kill too much whales. We would also want people to not ignore these beautiful creatures and help them learn about them instead of killing them.<br><br></div><div><strong>How will these changes create sustainable systems?&nbsp;</strong><br>We know that whales help the ecosystem how well they help bring plankton up the sea level where they suck the carbon and go to the bottom of the ocean and leave all the carbon there and that keeps cycling and that is how whales help clean the air for the ecosystem.<br><br></div><div><strong>Resources</strong>: &nbsp;<br><br></div><div>CIA World Fact book&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><a href="https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/">https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/<br></a><br></div><div>Economic Complexity<br><br></div><div><a href="https://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/explore/tree_map/hs/export/sgp/all/show/2012/">https://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/explore/tree_map/hs/export/sgp/all/show/2012/</a>&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Earth Systems &amp; Cycles: International Geosphere-Biosphere Program<br><br></div><div><a href="http://www.igbp.net/globalchange/earthsystemdefinitions.4.d8b4c3c12bf3be638a80001040.html">http://www.igbp.net/globalchange/earthsystemdefinitions.4.d8b4c3c12bf3be638a80001040.html<br></a><br></div><div><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong><br>The Whale Ship Ann Alexander<br></strong><br></div><div><br>Along with the story of the Essex above, this is the only other certain case of a ship being attacked and sunk by a whale. This account is related from "Whales and Whaling" by Charles Boardman Hawes published in 1924.<br><br></div><div><br>"The New Bedford whaler&nbsp;<em>Ann Alexander</em>&nbsp;was cruising the offshore sperm whaling grounds in the Pacific on the 20th of August 1851. Whales were sighted and two boats sent out. About noon the mate's boat struck a whale and was off on a "Nantucket sleigh ride" when the whale stopped, turned on the boat and "chawed it up". The other whaling boat with the ships captain John S. Deblois came to the rescue and the men taken back to the ship.<br><br></div><div><br>Once again the men went out to search for the stricken whale and once again the mate's boat made a strike and was smashed up requiring another rescue by the captain. Once on the ship, they headed for the whale who at last sounded (surfaced) and began to swim rapidly towards the ship. As he came near the ship "hauled on the wind" and let him pass. They tried to get another chance to strike, but it was too late in the day and the chase was given up for that day.<br><br></div><div><br>The ship was making about 5 knots and the captain was at the rail when suddenly he saw the whale rushing at the ship at about&nbsp; three times her speed. There was no time to make any avoiding action and the whale struck the ship which juddered as if she had hit a rock. The whale had hit abreast of the foremast about 2 feet above the keel and had knocked a great hole through the bottom. Water rushed in and anchors, cables and anything that might help keep her afloat was thrown overboard.<br><br></div><div><br>Finally the captain ordered all hands into the only two boats that were remaining while he jumped from the sinking ship into the sea and swam to the nearer boat. The ship lay on her beam ends (on her side) with topgallant yards under water (ropes servicing the uppermost sails). They waited by her all night and the next day the captain boarded her - none of his crew would take the risk - and cut away the masts. She then righted herself and they were able to retrieve some supplies and set out for land.<br><br></div><div><br>They must have all known the grim story of the&nbsp;<em>Essex</em>&nbsp;and its crew, but had no other choice. Fortunately for them however, two days later on the 22nd of August, the ship&nbsp;<em>Nantucket</em>&nbsp;from that town picked them up and took them to land."<br><br></div><div><br>The story then goes on to claim that the New Bedford whaler&nbsp;<em>Rebecca Sims</em>&nbsp;struck and saved a large whale and found two of the&nbsp;<em>Ann Alexander's</em>&nbsp;harpoons in him along with several pieces of ships timbers in his head - this latter part does seem to be stretching the story a little too far - for the sake of a better ending to the yarn maybe?</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br><strong>Our Global Context:</strong> Globalisation &amp; sustainability<br><em><br></em><strong>Reason for using this Global Context:</strong> We chose the global context because we know that whales help the ecosystem, how well they help bring plankton up the sea level where they suck the carbon and go to the bottom of the ocean and leave all the carbon there and that keeps cycling and that is how whales help clean air in the ocean. Without that the ocean life and land life would be gone. Because of the movement of the whales they also help with the temperature levels of Earth. If they were gone we would be stuck in a world in a even worse global warming crisis.<br><br></div>]]></description>
