Week One Day Five Activity 1 (4 points)
Success Criteria: On your blog tell us whether you think logging should
be allowed in New Zealand. Be sure to provide at least two reasons to support
your argument.
I think logging helps us humans from the wood made into paper but mostly
I don’t think logging should be allowed in New Zealand.
I think it shouldn’t be allowed in New Zealand because when these builders
cut down trees its actually killing animals that are living in that tree.
They are also forcing them to rebuild and find a home somewhere else but
then that tree might get cut down as well they moved to, so this cycle goes
over and over again.
Another reason that might be the same is that its not only killing our common
birds such as the sparrow birds it’s killing our native birds like the tui, black robins
and the New Zealand bellbird.
I also think that we can still log in Aotearoa. I just think we only can used a specific amount of trees for logging so it decreses the number of native trees, birds and their homes.

But not only the native birds the logging is also killing the native trees such as
the endangered pine tree, rimu, totara, pohutukawa etc.
Personal Comment: I strongly believe that logging is not a good thing here to be
doing in New Zealand because of all the reasons above.
Hi Jennae its me Hannah,
ReplyDeleteI really like your work and I agree with you, but I think that you should be allowed to log but only a certain amount of trees. Also that you have to check if there is a nest in the tree. Maybe next time when you post your activities that are on the same day you post them at the same time instead of posting them one at a time.
Kind regards Hannah
Hi Hannah, Thank you for your comment and advice I will post them all together when I next do them.
ReplyDeleteHey there Jennae,
ReplyDeleteI must say, it's very interesting to hear what you think and have to say about logging. I honestly love the way you have thought about this topic as well as the ideas you have come up with and I completely agree with you. Yes, logging definitely forces animals to give up their homes and try to find new ones. Unfortunately, these animals aren't always successful so it's really important that we start planting more trees in our country to keep it alive, well and beautiful. In fact, the government has set a goal to plant one billion trees by the year 2028. That's a lot of trees! If you would like to find out more information about the One Billion Trees Programme, head on over to the website I have linked here:

Keep up the awesome work,
Evelyn :D
