Spent

Spent

In "Spent", you learn about the hard life of  low wage american worker. It teaches you the difficulties of paying bills such as electricity and gas. It also makes you understand why a lot of these workers do what they do. I have gained a lot more sympathy for their situation after playing this game.

Us Norwegians are lucky enough to have a very tiny poverty percentage, and most people are employed. This game reminds you how lucky you really are

Edward Snowden told the world what about what the National Security Agency was doing. He said, " I had been looking for leaders, but I realized that leadership is about being the first to act." this is a very important messenger we all have to learn from. If we want something to happen we have to act and do something about it.

Some South African platinum miners went on a strike in 2014. Many were injured and some were even killed by riot police. It lasted for 5 months, and the miners were awarded an extra R1000 ( about 55 pounds ) per month. This shows if you work hard for something it will be awarded. Standing Rock, North Dekota

Spare parts review

The fact that the movie is so similar to the original story, amazed me.

The items the team had to use on the robot, forced them to think in new ways, eventually leading to them being the only team to finish the last task.

Robots can be used for a lot more than just for fun and entertainment, they are highly useful in areas like health, transport and making our lives easier, now robots have replaced many jobs, which is a bad thing. Robots can also be used in warfare instead of human beings.

Trumps government has employed a very strict immigration policy, which makes it a lot harder for foreigners to enter the US.

Climate change revisited

Cimate change

Today, we spoke with students from India and Israel. They told us about their environmental challenges, and what they did to conserve the environment.

In India, their main concerns were air pollution and flood. The air was polluted because of the extreme coal usage, while the flood may be caused by the geological structure of the Indian ocean. The main concern in India, is the water fog mixing with the factory emissions. This makes the citizens fee like they were living in a gas chamber.

They were also concerned about the old and outdated technology, which causes high emissions and low energy outputs.

In south Australia, they reduced environmental emissions by building solar panels.

In Adelaide, they do not agree with Trump`s environmental policy. They were willing to do everything they could to reduce global warming, and emissions.

We also watched a ted talk by two sisters from Bali. They worked hard to reduce the usage of plastic bags, and they actually succeeded in completely removing plastic bags from the country, which is truly amazing.
