Carbon Emissins Trading recently is a big issue; and it is threatening to vanish “The Great Barrera reef” and the Snow Mountains! But revealingly a man called, Rob Garnett came up with an idea called, “Carbon- Emissins Trading project”.

What it is, is that you get most of your bins taken away from you except one of them, and If you can’t fit all your rubbish into the bin you can either pay to rent the bins or you can pay your neighbour to put your own rubbish into their bin! That’s why it’s called,” Trading!”

Some people say that they are not even making the changes, the world does it all by its self and besides it would cost Australia to much money anyway. Recently there was a protest of people saying, “If you go ahead with this project we will lose our jobs”.

But others say that if “Carbon Emissins Trading” go ahead then there will probably be snow on the mountains by 2030! Oh and don’t forget that “The Great Barrera Reef” will still be there two!

If we do, do the project then we would be setting an example for all the other countries and this problem won’t happen again!

I really don’t know what my opinions are at the moment because it will cost heaps of money but I don’t want the world to fade away!

You probably have heard of a “Teacher strikes” before. Well in some countries it’s a big deal.

 

Strikes, well what are strikes you ask? Well this strike meant that some teachers think/know that they aren’t getting paid enough money so they choose to take the day off and protest for a raise, but some workers choose to stay at work. Read the rest of this entry »

Graffiti art is a work of art not vandalism it’ where you have nice pictures around the worlds not bad writing and pictures of yucky things and graffiti art is not against the law. The police are sticking by the graffiti artist because it is much better for people to be making art out of spray paint then just scribble. Read the rest of this entry »

The main part of this story is that the Tassie tiger has been extinct now for 70 years, and now they have thought of a way to bring them back to life! They have done that by cloning, the scientist’s tried bringing them back to life in an baby [ that hasn't been born yet!] mouses body [witch is like DNA!]. They have done that by taking a Tassie tiger’s bone, dying it blue so that they could tell if it would work.

They then inserted the bone\spine right into the baby mouse’s body. After that they x-rayed it and it had worked they were all very exited!

The Tassie Tiger’s actual real name is thylacine witch stands for pouched dog with a wolf’s head!

The scientists think that the Tassie tigers got extinct because of hunters, severe illnesses and loss of habitat due to population growth.

Genes contain the information about how your body is going to look like when your older so you are different from every body else, other wise it would be so boring in life because every body would be the same and look the same! That’s why we have DNA’s!

The opponents [people against!] say that the experiments are not good and they think it is cruel and unfair for the animals inside that were meant to be born and that the scientist’s are taking and messing over nature!

i reckon that they should go ahead with cloning the Tassie tiger’s and bringing them back to life, but then again they should have rules and exceptions if they go ahead with the idea, because then they could just start cloning who ever they wanted to, and then the world would be to full of people!
