THE INTERVIEW

-

I interviewed my Godmother, Isabel and this is what she had to say;


Question: How would you define climate change? 

Answer: "It's in the name... its the rapid change in temperature and weather patterns."


Question: Do you consider climate change to be a real issue? 

Answer: "Of course, it's all over the media..."


Question: Do you believe that human activity plays a role in climate change?

 Answer: "I believe we play a massive role in climate change... the landfills, air pollution, toxic waste, deforestation... humans are really doing damage to the Earth."       


Question: How often did it used to snow when you were a kid?

Answer: "In the winter there were crazy snow storms that I would have to travel to school in. Schools rarely ever closed down due to the snow, and my mother would not allow me to skip a day. Now of days, schools close even for the slightest weather issue. You kids barely endured any blizzards like we did when I was young." 


 Question: Do you believe that there are ways to stop climate change? 

 Answer: "I believe that the damages can not be undone, but the Earth will be able to heal itself overtime if we help instead of harm."

It has become more obvious over the past few decades. When humans are burning fossil fuels, farming livestock, and cutting down forests, it increases the greenhouse effect and global warming because of the amount of gasses being poured out into the atmosphere.

REFLECTION OF FREE-WRITES

         Free writing is a technique writers use to generate ideas and make connections. It is meant to improve a persons communication, confidence, honesty, inspiration, memories and emotions. It provides an individual with the chance of privately expressing their own opinions. I believe that the free writes in class surely helped me to clear my mind of any distractions or unwanted feelings. It also helped me in developing a sense of "flow" when writing essays.    Writing is the primary basis upon which a persons work, learning, and intellect will be judge d . It makes our learning and thinking visible and long-lasting. I believe that there are no real negative effects of free writing. It truly benefits a person writing in some shape or form.
