How can we solve this problem and make a change? Plastics are very hard to decompose. It can take more than 200 years to decompose. We need to save ourselves, our animals, and the earth itself. Earth is dying because of us. Animals are dying because of us. We are dying because of us. A negative environment can kill us. I think this is a good topic to talk about because a lot of people always use it and never think about their actions. We can work together as a team to solve this and act for a better future.

The issue is trash is starting to cover most of the earth. No one ones to recycle trash and people throw trash everywhere. Trash is making climate change faster, and jellyfish duplicating faster. The predator of jellyfish, the turtle is dying because of plastic There is also a company that trades money for trash.

But I am concerned for the well-being of the earth since it has endured a lot of changes during the years like pollution, climate change, global warming, etc. My topic is how people come together to reduce plastic waste and pollution, these people help the earth because they know that this is our home and we cannot afford losing it

It also affects the air, it makes a bad smell and makes the air smelly, and sometimes people can't breathe because of the smelly air.
-I think that most of the  earth is starting to get covered by trash.
- Some machines can get the trash out of the ocean. 
- Some people are making a change by using reusable and recycled products (biodegradable plastics, reusable chip bags, stainless straws, and more)

The trash on the land can affect us because the trash in the land can make land pollution happen. Which will make water not safe to drink. Trash/plastics that are in the oceans can be eaten by the animals and make them die. This also can affect us by not having clean water in the ocean, no animals to eat (there are plastics and trash on the body), and many animals die/suffer.

  • What action will you take as a group?
    The actions that we will take as a group are advocacy and lifestyle choices. For advocacy, we can make a campaign to influence people to not use plastics and non-recyclable products. For lifestyle choices, we could make it a challenge for people to not use plastics and not litter for months. We also could make a community to take the trash/plastics and make a dropbox at school to collect plastics.

  • Who will be your target audience?
    Our target audience is hopefully everyone in Indonesia. Mainly the traditional market sellers,

  • What platform/media/venue will you use to conduct your action?
    A platform that we will use to conduct our action is through social media, making a site, posters, at school, or even at our home.

    The interesting thing I learned from Grade 7 students is that we could show our actions through many platforms. Such as roleplay, posters, and interview (we also can interview the secondary teachers). They also told us some tips on talking to the public (for the day of our exhibition) such as just looking at their foreheads if you are too shy and more.

    I think the learner profile i have demonstrated is communicator because i could discuss the planning and the work

    I used to think that we couldn't make a change and this could end after the PYP Exhibition, but now I think that we could work together as a team to try to get people to stop littering, having a workshop and collaborating with organizations that we could try start on planning it and keep continuing it after the PYP Exhibition.

    The Fun and Challenging Part:
    The fun part is that we all have many ideas and also with the mentor, we have many fun actions to do together. The challenging part is when we all don't cooperate with each other and some are not doing the work or leaving the discussion. I overcome this problem by just letting them do what they want to do and getting input from the mentor on how to deal with that by just giving them work since they don't what to be in the discussion. I feel very excited to do the actions together and sometimes "dizzy" about what should we write more for the planning of the inquiry.

    Learner Profile I Have Demonstrated:
    The learner profiles that I have demonstrated are thinker because I think and research various information about plastics, communicator because I can communicate well with my group, inquirer because I show my curiosity and enjoyed every moment during the process of it, and lastly open-minded because I can consider many different of opinion and perspectives for our action later.

I want to find out peoples' opinions about plastics by interviewing them, what are the bad chemicals in plastics by doing an excursion to a plastic factory, knowing how can plastic affects the environment by visiting a water source that has a lot of plastic and finding out more about how can we work together to try to stop littering by creating a podcast with organizations. ]]>     2023-01-16 02:29:07 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2445105558     Reflection Week 1 vellika_felcia https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2445109970 My Growing Thinking:
    I used to think that littering and using plastics cant be stopped but now I think that me and my group can work together to stop littering plastic and using plastics

    Fun and Challenging Part: 
    The Fun part is that I could do fun activities that could decrease littering plastic and using plastics, such as recycling plastics, making a recycable straw, etc. The challenging part is when my friends wont cooperate in the meeting and if they dont know something they will just ask the people that cooperate and its a little bit hard because sometimes they dont get what we mean.

    Learner Profile I Have Demonstrated:
    I've been a Thinker because I used a variety of appropriate research methods. I've also been knowledgable because I answer questions and I've learned new topics.

    Summary:
    Plastic types 1 (PETE) and 2 (HDPE) are recycled more and are used in products such as water bottles, shampoo, gallon jugs, and a lot of other things that we use in our daily lives. Those plastics are easier to sort and melted into pallets that can be sold to the manufacturers. The other plastics, like  3 (V), 4 (LDPE), 5 (PP), and 6 (PS). For example, plastic chairs, straws, and more. They are harder to recycle and turn back to raw materials due to their material composition, coloring, or unusual shapes. For these reasons, there's not a large market to recycle plastics. ]]>     2023-01-17 03:18:31 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2446268657     How is Biodegradable Plastic Made? vellika_felcia https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2446269351 How to make Bioplastic.

    Plastic is made by natural gasses, like crude oil . That's The reason it is easily burned. The oil is brought to the factory,then boiled. The crude oil produces different types of oil. One of them is naphtha, naphtha is one of the main materials to make plastic. Ethen is the main substance to make plastic.  Ethen is made from naphtha.To make ethene naphtha is sent to naphtha cracking center. After that the ethene is coiled , compressed and sent to the reaction chamber. In the reaction chamber the ethene is processed into polyethene. After that the polyethene is brought to a chamber that adds antioxidants and stabilizer to the polyethene. Then the polyethene is put in the extruder. The polyethene is turned into polyethene strings which are actually strings made out of plastic. The polyethylene string goes to the grinder and turns to plastic pellets.

    Heavy metals, flame retardants, phthalates, bisphenols, and fluorinated compounds are just a few of the biggest and riskiest chemical groups that are directly linked to the manufacture of plastics. Many of these compounds, which we regularly consume or breath, have negative effects on our health.

    One of the most popular plastics in use today, polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE), is divided into three categories. HDPE, or high-density polyethylene, is robust and resistant to chemicals and moisture. The most harmful plastic to human health is polyvinyl chloride (often known as vinyl or PVC), which is known to release harmful chemicals over the course of its entire existence. HDPE is a variant of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) that is softer, cleaner, and more flexible. It is frequently utilized in corrosion-resistant work surfaces, other items, and beverage carton liners. Among all plastics, polypropylene (PP) is one of the most resilient. Although it is slightly bendable due to its flexibility, it holds its strength and shape for a considerable amount of time. Hazardous poisons like styrene can easily leak from polystyrene (PS or Styrofoam). Plastics that don't fit into any of the other six categories are grouped under the category "other." The fact that these polymers are often not recyclable is what matters most in this situation. It's crucial to understand what it implies because you might encounter the #7 recycle code, therefore we included it.]]>     2023-01-18 02:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2447745454     Chemicals/Substances of Biodegradable Plastics elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2447894538 What does biodegradable plastic degrade into? (2020, April 23). Retrieved from https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/what-does-biodegradable-plastic-degrade-into/

    Biodegradable plastics contain chemical additives that encourage microorganisms to feed on the plastic, using their enzymes to break the plastic’s molecular bonds. These additives work in two main ways: either by attracting microbes to the plastic directly, or by speeding up the plastic’s natural weathering process, which gives a larger, more ragged surface area for the microbes to work on.

    Once the microbes have done their work, all that’s left behind is water, carbon dioxide, and methane. The reality is, however, a little more complex, as many biodegradable plastics need particular conditions in order to biodegrade. This typically involves temperatures of over 50°C and the right combination of moisture, air and microbes – meaning that these plastics won’t break down if left in the ocean or on domestic compost heaps.

    Meanwhile, some plastics labelled as biodegradable aren’t truly biodegradable but are merely designed to disintegrate into fragments when exposed to air. These plastics never decompose entirely, but leave behind tiny pieces known as microplastics.]]>     2023-01-18 06:24:16 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2447894538     Types of Biodegradable Plastics elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2447898541 https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/817684/review-standards-for-biodegradable-plastics-IBioIC.pdf

    I used to think that when we use plastics, they can't create a bad impact on the environment but now I think that we should start acting to stop killing the environment and animals.

    The Fun & Challenging Part:
    The fun part is when I get to discuss with my friends and mentor. We also get to plan the fun actions coming. The challenging part is when we must do all the work. For example, there are 2 works on LOI 2, and we still need to finish the work on LOI 1 which is editing the spontaneous interview which takes a long time. I overcome the challenges by putting what's more important first. I also plan to do the work that I can do after school and discuss it at school. My feelings and emotions are mixed. I sometimes feel stressed but enjoy the PYP Exhibition's preparation moments.

    Learner Profile I Have Demonstrated:
    The learner profiles that I have demonstrated are thinker (on finding resources for our post-it and fishbone project), communicator (on communicating with my group members, balanced (on editing the interview video, which is my hobby and doing it as one of the projects), reflective (being aware of my own and my group's strength and weaknesses), and caring (working cooperatively with my group and dividing the works equally).

  • Mayor of Bogor, Bima Arya, detailed that by 2022, the waste generated from the City of Bogor will amount to hundreds of tonnes every day.
  • "Currently, Bogor City generates 650 tons of waste every day," said Bima Arya when launching the Swap Garbage into Credit program with Indosat.
  • Several steps, said Bima Arya, have been taken to make the waste generated maximally transportable and reduce the percentage including plastic waste.
  • So there was a 14% plastic waste reduction from 650 tonnes.

    I used to think that using plastics and not sorting the trash won't make a big change, but now I think that we need to start and learn the types of trash we use.

    The Fun & Challenging Part:
    There are ups and downs during the exhibition process. Now, in week 4, it's starting to be fun (we get to do the actions and discuss as a team to try on stopping plastics usage. There are also some challenges that we need to face. Such as, having a lot of work at the same time with exhibitions, and other lessons too. I overcome the challenges by making a to-do list and a timetable to know what to do next (time management). I have mixed emotions and feelings throughout this exhibition process because at a point I felt excited and happy. But at another point, I felt stressed because of the work that I have and that I need to give assignments to my friends. 

    Learner Profile I Have Demonstrated:
    I have demonstrated many learner profiles such as inquirer (one showing curiosity during the learning journey in doing the action), thinker (thinking of many resources to get the pieces of information that we need), communicator (communicating with the group members, and mentor), caring (on working cooperatively with the group members and mentor), and being open-minded (on considering many perspectives from experts such as kertabumi and PT.

The problem we learned there that can affect the environment is that there is much trash in the ocean which could affect divers' swimming and could trap sea animals. many ways to reuse plastics. Such as reusing plastic packaging and creating it as a tote bag so we could reuse it multiple times. Melting plastics to create a bowl, or even reusing used paper. We also can use used cardboard and plastic caps to create cars, pencil holders from used plastic bottles, kites from plastic bags, and more. Not only reuse them, but we could also use eco-friendly products. Such as eco-friendly soap from honey or chocolate. An action that we all can start now is bringing water bottles/tumblers to school, finishing our food, and sorting out plastics (organic, non-organic, paper, and residue). We also learned that we could go to a garbage bank to trade our plastics so we could get money. We are very grateful to join this online workshop with Kertabumi. ]]> 2023-02-09 16:15:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2475262868 Reflection Week 5 phillip_kenneth https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2476559341 1.I used to think Bye Bye Plastic at Sekolah Bogor Raya has many members but they are lacking member.s If they have less than five members ,their company will be destroyed.

    2.I have enjoyed interviewing the members of Bye Bye Plastic Bag. The challenging part is inviting the members of Bye Bye Plastic Bag to our interview. We overcome the challenge by asking their group nicely. After the interview I found out that the best way to stop plastic polution by adding more trashcans to the neighborhood. 

    3. I show inquiry because I show my curiousity by asking several questions.

    5. During my journey I learned about plastic, it's effect to the environment, and what it is made of. The most memorable experience is taking a fieldtrip to the recycling factory and teaching the prep students. I wish I could make a bigger impact to stop plastic polution. I will achieve this by boosting up Yea group and joining Bye Bye Plastic bag.]]>     2023-02-10 15:18:16 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2476559341     Reflection Week 5 elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2477837873 My Growing Thinking:
    I used to think that working together is easy but now I think that there will always be challenges that we will face but we have to always be patient.

    The Fun & Challenging Part:
    I have enjoyed working with my group together and getting more information and ideas from our seniors from Sekolah Bogor Raya's Bye-Bye Plastic Bags SLC club. There will always be parts that are challenging. The challenges that I face this week are facing my friends when they don't do their assignments when I need to do their part since the due is near. I could face those problems by creating a to-do list to keep on track of my assignments and I need to push my friends to do their assignments and always try to be calm when facing these challenges. I felt excited since it was almost the day of the PYP Exhibition but a little bit sad because I will miss this PYP Exhibition journey together with Ibu Tari (our mentor) and my group. But at the same time I, felt exhausted because I need to have good time management skills since it was almost the end of the PYP Exhibition journey. At the same time, I also felt stressed since I need to deal with the assignments that are "empty-handed" to me and also I need to face the different characteristics of my friends on giving the assignments (when they don't want to do it, etc).

    Learner Profile I Have Demonstrated:
    I have demonstrated many learner profiles such as inquirer (when being engaged in doing the experiments and the actions), thinker (on using many research methods), communicator (on discussing ideas with my group and mentor), risk-taker (on presenting to Sekolah Bogor Raya's kindergarten), balanced (on being enthusiastic during the action and when doing experiments), and open-minded (on considering many ideas about what to do at the d-day of the PYP Exhibition and our action).

    Takeaways for the Whole Exhibition Journey:
    I see this PYP Exhibition as a new opportunity to express myself and build friendships when working together. This exhibition journey is also a way to make a change. This PYP Exhibition has changed me by making me try to be a person that is more patient when facing many challenges and building me to be a better listener, and a better leader, building me to be cooperative and better when working together. ]]>     2023-02-12 14:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2477837873     Formulate YEA! Organization elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2485826047 We did a brainstorming about our organization together. We discuss about the vision and mission, activities and programs, organization structure, and the job desc or the roles. By doing this, we get to work together as a team to create an organization so we could reduce plastic waste. Creating an organization is not easy. We need to discuss the vision and mission and we need to think carefully so that our decision is correct and perfect and matches our topic. Our vision is to create personal awareness among children to protect and preserve the environment. Our mission is to raise awarness about sorting out trash properly, to raise awareness about the effect of plastic trash towards the environment, and to give guidance and assistance to children to practice and have a better environment to care lifestyle.]]> 2023-02-17 02:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2485826047 Proposal to Sekolah Bogor Raya elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2485826519 We created a proposal for Sekolah Bogor Raya so we could do events in and outside Sekolah Bogor Raya.

We put 3 boxes and labeled them plastic, paper, and organic. On the plastic box, we put our plastic waste in our daily life. When we observed it, we found out that we used plastics a lot, mostly plastic bottles and plastic bags. We also used a lot of paper! From writing, drawing, calendars, and more. Organic doesn't always have to be from organic food waste (fruits, vegetables, etc) because it might be smelly if we put it too long inside the dropbox. By doing this, we could recycle it by sorting it out because how could we recycle it if we don't know the types of trash? The first and easiest step to recycling trash is to sort it out.]]> 2023-02-17 02:43:38 UTC https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2485826968 Workshop Sorting Out Trash and Upcycling to Prep A Sekolah Bogor Raya elaine_agatha https://padlet.com/vellika_felcia/Environment_Group3/wish/2485827142 One of our actions is doing a workshop sorting out the trash and upcycling to Prep A Sekolah Bogor Raya. Firstly, we did a sounding to Prep A about the things we will do on the 10th of February. At the sound, we told them to collect trash and put it in the dropbox.
