oil spills How oil spills affect social life all the oil spills how to be green
- As a group you will co-construct your leaning about your chosen Global topic.
- Over the next 5 days, you will research your topic in relation to PEPS and using the Success Criteria as a guide.
- All research will have to be sourced and put into jot notes.
1. Physical-Physical Landscape of the Earth
(location, country size, time zone, natural resources, important physical landforms, climate)
- Oil spills because birds can die because oil makes the birds wings stick to them.
- Oil spills can ruin water and can be really big and cause really big damage
- Bio remediation is when bacteria and micorganisms are released into the water to kind of clean up oil spills
- oil spills are very dangerous to all living things in the ocean
- Oil spills are made from liquid petroleum which are from,large tankers,and huge factorys
- People don't realize that hundred of millions gallons each year end up in our oceans.
- people use biological agents to get rid of oil spills
-Birds can die from oil on the birds wings,birds often try to lick the oil off their wings,but they get poisoned.
2. Economic- Forms of Trade, work or any money related activities
(currency, GDP, major exports and imports, literacy rate etc.)
Malaria can happen in poor countries where people can not afford medine to heel the victim in need so they just die.
- people that don't have the money to
get the city worker to dumpers are people that will dump oil into the oceans because they do not want to spend money on decomposing their waste oil. Because they won’t spend money on breaking up the oil (decomposing it) they will dump oil into the oceans, it is illegal.
- Burning can reduce the amount of oil in water,but it can also cause air pollution
_people put bacteria into the ocean to get rid of oil.
-The fishing industry suffers from oil spills, because thousands of fish die and it gets hard to catch fish when there are no fish
3. Political- Government Activities, laws, or any symbols related to these activities
(forms of government, capital city, political leaders)
- sometimes when countries are at war they put a bunch of oil into their enemy's ocean
- Sometimes big companys spill a lot of oil into the ocean which can also damage the ecosystem
-large company tankers pass by leaving lots of oil which has leaked out while it was passing.
_The recent oil spill that happend in Canada in 2010 people tried to find oil but it leaked
-Toxic waste is being spilled in the oceans and and this is poisonous materials and this is the most harmful form of pollution to sea life
People who fish as a recreation and as a time to socialize with their grandchildren can't fish because the toxic chemicals are killing much of the fish poppulation
4. Social- People and the cultures, beliefs and traditions that define them
(languages, religion, celebrations, recreation, values, immigration, population etc.)
-The population off fish is strongly decreasing some people hunt for fish,if all the fish dies there will be no more food for people to eat
- people have no food they might die. As a result the population of people will decrease.
-Many terorists dump oil into the ocean,to get a country's attencion
-Tourist industry suffers because first of all people don't want to go to a beach that has oil in it.Secondly they don't like seeing dead washed up birds and fishes on their beaches witch can cause less tourists to come to that country

Everyone needs to continue to research and highlight in your own words the key ideas in jot notes from what you are reading (books or websites). Your research at this time should not include inferences. Use PEPS as a lense to guide you through your reading.
