Foor Plan - Safety

This is our floor plan. It is used to indicate built in features, and to tell us the names and safety of the machines outside the areas marked in purple. The entire thing is going to also help set a seating plan in the workshop for the kid's in our class. 

Environmental Health Care

 What can WE do to help restore and protect the environment? - By using biodegradable plastic bags, and being able to avoid taking cars or carpools when possible (traveling responsibly). So there's less litter and less pollution to the environment, helping it gain more sustainability by the restoration of papatuanuku. And by shopping locally or for organic food, planting several trees to improve on the landscape making the purification more pristine. But also freeing us from contamination, giving us the opportunity of being able to improve the water globally, saving electricity and mainly just being the kaitiakitanga of our whenua. 

All about me

My understanding of Human Rights & Social Justice

In social studies, i managed to increase my understanding of human rights and  social justice.
For example when talking about human rights, We all have the right to the equal enjoyment of civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights.
But there's people who believe they are on a higher ranking than others, along with higher expectations, which could also be unfair on others feelings, and not only emotional well-being, but also physical well-being.
Therefore there are individuals that should be given the same amount of respect, and understanding, despite their culture, and others discrimination towards different religions, and skin colours.
We should be given the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and possibly torture, freedom of opinion and expression, and certainly many more.
As for social justice, it's a development which is alongside economic growth, sustainable environment, but it also ensures fairness to future generations, or people who are living in poor conditions that most likely are life threatening.
We should be given fair treatment, opportunity, success and advancement for all people, but also striving to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented the full participation of some certain groups.
