Forest: sustainable production and consumption

We have been researching information and debating ideas about the fires and about measures for economic and environmental sustainability, within the scope of forests. We know that the sustainable use of forest products helps us move towards an economy based on renewable, reusable and recyclable materials. Wood can be used for a variety of purposes, with lower environmental impacts than many other materials. It is extremely important to manage and care for forests in a sustainable way, so that materials and products of forest origin can be the basis of a more sustainable economic model, as well as consumption choices that promote the reduction of the global ecological footprint. After sharing our knowledge with our parents, at home, with the collaboration of family members, each of us built a tree with waste material, thus saving natural resources. Later, with all the trees, we built a forest without pollution. We believe in a sustainable forest, we believe in a forest that creates jobs and provides what we need, but in which ecosystems are also protected and their quality is maintained, in order to create a balance between production and consumption. It is urgent to change habits and promote the sustainability of the Forest and life on Planet Earth!

PIPA Project (2nd part)

As part of the PIPA Project (Project for Intervention Prevention of Accidents) we went to visit the Fire Department in our city. The visit consisted of the notion of the «Star of Life», that is, from the aid. We started the visit with the observation of a pre-hospital rescue vehicle (ambulance). Firefighter Maria and firefighter Rui explained to us everything inside and outside the ambulance. We love to learn! We even played the victim! Also, we visited the telephone exchange of this barracks. We saw a distress call. Firefighter Maria, with her professionalism and dedication, answered the call and, soon after, an ambulance left with two firefighters from the corporation to provide first aid to an elderly man with epilepsy. Next, the nurse/fireman Miguel showed us some of the fire/extrication vehicles, the firemen's dormitory and the changing room where each locker had a photo of each firefighter and each one's helmet. To end the visit to the barracks, on International...

Practical activity on sustainable agriculture and biodiversity…

Resim
As part of the eTwinning project «Little Green Hands», in the Study of the Environment subject, we developed a very interesting practical class, guided by Mr. Engineer Paulo Pinto. We learned that sustainable agriculture is one that respects the environment, is fair from a social point of view and manages to be economically viable. Sustainable agriculture guarantees present and future generations the ability to respond to production needs and the quality of life on Planet Earth, respecting and protecting natural resources. Above all, it is very important not to waste!... In this class, we carry out a sowing, but before that we build the pots from empty water bottles. Each of us has put our hands on the earth and chosen a seed that will germinate and give rise to a healthy and beautiful plant! We know that we have to know how to take care of our “little pots”!... We are anxious to see the plants grow, because we will be able to observe a great plant diversity (biodiversity)! In th...

Experiences with the Air

Resim
During this week we learned that air exists, has weight, cannot be seen and takes up space through research and experience. We looked like scientists! We also discovered that wind is air in motion. A wind turbine, or wind turbine, is a piece of equipment that takes advantage of wind energy, wind energy, and converts it into electrical energy. “Renewable energy sources are energy sources from natural resources that are constantly renewed in a sustainable way, even after being used to generate electricity or heat. Examples are rainwater, wind, biomass, the sun, ocean waves and the heat of the Earth.” Wind energy is generated by wind. In this way, “wind farms are installed in places where the average annual wind speed exceeds 6 m/s, which in Portugal occurs in mountainous areas and close to the coast.” Also, we made an abstract painting with our breath, food coloring and a straw.   2ºD – EB dos Enxertos https://httpsaprendizes.blogspot.com/2022/05/experiencias-com-o-a.html
