7.) I chose this interview on Steve Irwin because when I was younger he was my idol. I looked up to his enthusiasm, courage, and passion for wildlife. This video explains his passion for conservation and his whole life story. It not only talks to Steve but to his family and friends about where he learnt all his skills and knowledge. This allows people to learn more about him. Not only is this video educational about the environment and animals but it’s also about raising a family and the obstacles that parents may face. (I only posted one video but it is a ten part show)
b.) I chose the interview of Rob Stewart and co-workers on Larry King live because it is educational about the world wide, massacre of sharks. Rob talks about the threat of shark finning on our environment and how if we get rid of the top predators the food chain will fall. The video explains what we can do and how much of an impact this has on our lives. If people go on without changing the way things are then our planet is in huge trouble, with the ocean ecosystems dyeing. We get 50 to 70% of our oxygen from the ocean.

8.) I chose this Ted Talk because it was powerful and educational. It touched me and made me want to do something positive. I learned how bad our world has become and we only have a limited time to fix it before it’s too late. This video explains how all the worlds’ issues are connected and we can’t let our disgusting ways progress.
I chose this Ted Talk because although it was twenty minutes long I was engaged the whole time. I am fascinated by Andrew Birds talent and how his music can make me feel a certain emotion like happiness, as if the song was describing it. One of his songs was about self-destructing and he used looping to portray it and I was able to translate that into my own life through his music.
I chose this Ted Talk because I have never heard of this species before and I am interested in such an odd looking fish. An interesting thing about the Mola Mola “Sunfish” is that they can help us figure out climate change. If they can do this then that will help scientists figure out a solution which is hope I am willing to hold onto.
