Choose a picture, describe it and write your suggestions... you can be inspired by global warming; ice melting; toxic waste ; flooding; drought; desertification; acid rain; toxic waste; illegal waste disposal;  water/air/soil pollution; oil spillage…).
What are the things we SHOULD /COULD / MUST do to solve this problem???. This is my proposal... what about you??
TO START, CLICK ON THE RED CIRCLE WITH A CROSS put your name and class and ADD your suggestions.... SHARE your ideas...and the pictures you like most... HERE IS MY FAVOURITE ONE....]]> 2020-04-26 13:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/531137513 ANIMALS AT RISK BECAUSE OF GLOBAL WARMING nicolettasigaudo https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/531156018 A volunteer is carrying a koala in a burning forest in Australia. Although volunteers rescued a lot of animals, the wildfires that burned across Australia for months,killed thousands of  animals.
How could it have happened? FIRES are  a direct consequence of the HOT, DRY WEATHER due to GLOBAL WARMING. 
In order to contain t, we SHOULD reduce CO2 emissions. We SHOULD use more clean energy and we SHOULDN''T waste energy; for example we SHOULDN'T  keep the heating on when it's not necessary, and we COULD use public transport.  We MUST take action: if temperatures keep rising, fires will become more likely and common....

(Irene Allario) https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/544080294 Here: this image describes the whole problem of our days .. the world is like an ice cream cone that with our consumption slowly melts, as if we are the sun, until it will be completely melted: that is the end.
The glaciers melt, the animals die, the waters increase, the lands dry up ... and so on .. a slow but effective "death" .. and if we continue like this we will regret it ....                                                               we must start to act concretely and quickly:  do not hesitate but look for solutions, and we could start by using as much renewable energy as possible and non-renewable energy as little as possible.
We should try to sensitize the whole population to encourage them to consume less and to act instead of lazing and watching the world destroy itself: the future of boys and girls will be lost and future generations will put a lot of obstacles and put their lives at risk ..

Consume less and a better world we will have!]]> 2020-05-01 14:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/544080294 FLOODING! (Lorenzo Cucurachi) https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/544610520 Flooding is caused by the overflow of rivers due to heavy rains and collapse ok the containment banks.
The violence of water drags with it debris, waste, mud and everything it encounters (people, cars, animal, etc).
Houses are flooded, sometimes collapse and people lose everything they have.
In order to reduce this phenomenon we must widen  the riverbeds and strengthen the banks.
We should reduce deforestation and increase green areas, we should avoid overbuilding, respecting the conformation of the soil. We mustn’t build near rivers, lakes or sea and in illegal areas.
We could use draining and permeable flooring: they make the ground breathe and promote heat mitigation.

Since the early 1900s, many glaciers around the world have been rapidly melting. Human activities are the cause of this phenomenon.
Gas emissions have raised temperatures and  glaciers are rapidly melting, calving off into the sea and retreating on land.
To solve this problem we must reduce emissions and we could find renewable energy.
We should reduce the fossil fuel for example going to school or to work by foot or by bike.
We should recycle paper, plastic, glass, newspaper, and aluminum.
We must plant trees: Plants absorb CO2 and produce oxygen.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!!]]> 2020-05-03 07:56:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546367628 MELTING GLACIERS https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546506442 Due to global warming, many species of animals are extinct because global warming causes the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere in particular CO2. A glacier is a huge mass of ice, which is found in the polar areas and in the high mountains. Polar bears, seals, walruses and penguins are among the most endangered species. There are 21.000 species in risky areas that are a resource for all, but humans are damaging this resource, for example by increasing greenhouse gases due to the use of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) all this could be avoided. We should all use less water and more public transport. We should not waste water unnecessarily, use the cars only for short distances and use the bike or walk.  If not in a few years the glaciers will no longer be there. I chose this image because I really like animals.]]> 2020-05-03 09:38:09 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546506442 We eat what we waste https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546515290 In the picture there is a person who ate trash. If we don't stop to throwing garbage in the sea soon (but it's already happening) we will eat more garbage than fish and if we continue to produce pollution we will no longer be able to breathe the air. We must reduce the trash and the pollution if we want to save the planet.]]> 2020-05-03 09:44:03 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546515290 https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546700338 ILLEGAL WASTE DISPOSAL
Illegal waste disposal means quantities of rubbish/waste that are burned polluting the air. 
To avoid this problem we must do separate collection, we mustn't throw waste on the ground. We also should recycle instead of buy new objects. If we respect these rules we won't find weste on the beaches and won't pollute the environment. ]]> 2020-05-03 11:59:20 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/546700338 STOP THE FOREST FIRE! (Castello Riccardo 3A) https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547138062 In this picture we can see how people are burning the world. This puts people and animals at risk. It is the trees that give us oxygen to breathe and the forest are home for many animals that risk extinction.  Moreover, the substances released by the smokes emitted are also harmful to everyone.
To avoid this, we should plant more trees , we musn't hunt wild animals and we musn't play with fire. We must think for the future for the planet because we have only one!

We can do it!]]> 2020-05-03 16:23:50 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547138062 https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547165508 2020-05-03 16:37:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547165508 https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547194375 2020-05-03 16:52:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547194375 simonerolfo870 https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547312293 pollution of the seas and death of fish
(Simone rolfo 3A)
The oceans occupy 70% of our planet, help regulate its climate and produce half of the oxygen we breathe.However, these blue surfaces are continually threatened by pollution as seen in this photo which alters their characteristics and prevents the use of water for what it is made for. There are several sources of pollution in the ocean, such as the oil discharged from large boats, the plastic that is thrown into the sea and that builds real barriers, the harmful chemical substances thrown without being purified by the industries.there are several sources of pollution in the ocean, such as the oil discharged from large boats, the plastic that is thrown into the sea and that builds real barriers, the harmful chemical substances thrown without being purified by the industries. The researchers even predicted that by 2050 fish will be less than human waste.]]> 2020-05-03 17:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/547312293 https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/560157100 2020-05-08 15:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/560157100 STOP DEFORESTATION! (ILARIA PRISCO 3A) https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/561473104 in this figure we can see the Amazon rainforest partly razed to the ground. In the world, however, not only the Amazon rainforest is felled to facilitate human well-being, but also many other forests and forests are deforested for the human purpose, which is to build palaces and terraces for new crops. the problem and that if we continue to destroy all these immense green spaces, there will be much less new and clean oxygen, which serves and will serve our continuous breathing. the Amazon rainforest is one of the largest green lungs on the entire planet, let's not destroy it for a few more luxury apartments. we can really change things. 
we can do it!]]> 2020-05-09 14:00:17 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/561473104 ILLEGAL WASTE DISPOSAL AND PLASTIC ISLANDS (KATIA PREDA) https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/562454209 Today there are 5 large plastic islands in the world that are in the middle of the oceans and every day they grow more and more. It is important to stop wasting all this plastic because animals suffer from it and we suffer from it too. We have to stop buying plastic bottles and start using reusable water bottles and drinking tap water, 1 million plastic bottles are bought every minute! We must stop buying plastic toys that we throw and break immediately, stop buying fruit and vegetables packed in plastic and ABSOLUTELY stop using disposable cutlery and dishes. We must recycle and not waste!]]> 2020-05-10 10:35:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolettasigaudo/Bookmarks/wish/562454209
