The population of NZ between Europeans and Maori's

 


This graph shows us the population of NZ. I do not know why the graph shows that there are more Europeans than Maori's but that is all the result we got. I think there is more Europeans because most of them have recently moved to NZ from their country. 

My mihi

Recently in class, we have been learning about our Mihi. Here is mine that I have made.

This is how traditionally Maori would introduce themselves:

 Ko Vaiulumuli Mataese tōku

Play papa (Father)

Ko Litia Mataese tōku
Playmama (Mother)

Ko Aisa Mataese tōku
Playingoa (Name)

Ko Port hills tōku Maunga (Mountain)

No Samoa - Upolu ahau (Where I am from)

Ko Ngati Mormen and Presbyterian tōku iwi

Ko Ōtakaro tōku awa

Ko Te Huruhuru Ao o Horomaka tōku kura

Climate change - greenhouse effect

 What is the green house effect - A green house effect is the trapping of the sun's warmth in a planet's lower atmosphere, due to the greater transparency of the atmosphere to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted from the planet's surface.

Greenhouse Effect 101 | NRDC


Consequences of climate change -

  • Climate change by trapping in the heat
  • Extream weather
  • Sea level rising 
  • melting glaciers and warming oceans which can directly harm animals and destroy the places they live.

Possible solution - There are a lot of possible ways to fixing the greenhouse effects, such as using  renewables and other climate-friendly energy resources. (For some examples) include rooftop solar panels, solar water heating, small-scale wind generation, fuel cells powered by natural gas or renewable hydrogen, and geothermal energy.
