Hey guys today I am completing this task - Some people like logging because it creates jobs for the loggers and generates money for New Zealand while others are against (opposed to) logging. Many of those opposed are worried that logging will damage the environment. It might also force animals who live in trees (eg. owls) to find new homes.
What do you think about logging?
On your blog tell us whether you think logging should be allowed in New Zealand. Be sure to provide at least two reasons to support your argument.
I think logging should not be allowed in New Zealand because if all the trees get cut down how are we suppose to breath people should think before its to late. The other reason logging should be banned because if you are cutting down the tree and you fall with the tree what do you think will happen you could kill yourself or hurt yourself.

Bye guys thank for reading:)

  1. Hi Danielle,

    I'm Leslie and I'm a member of the Summer Learning Journey team, reading your blog from my home in Canada. Isn't it amazing that we can live on opposite sides of the world and yet both participate in this program?? It's very cool!

    You've given 2 good reasons for limiting logging in your beautiful country. Trees are very very important for keeping the air around us clean and healthy, as you say! They also give good shade in the summer, don't they, so that people don't suffer from sunburns and plants can grow in the cooler air under their branches?

    I agree with you too that being a logger is a dangerous profession. Certainly lumberjacks (as we call them in Canada) have to have a lot of training in order to know how to safely take down trees. They don't want to be injured themselves or do harm to others, or to the rest of the trees in the forest.

    We use a lot of wood when building our houses and other buildings so we rely on wood as a building material, don't we? Perhaps the key is for people to learn to cut just enough wood for what we actually need, and not too much. Or, perhaps we need to create another building material to be used instead of wood. Do you have any ideas?

    I hope you're having lots of fun this summer on your school break. And I hope you're enjoying these Summer Learning Journey activities. I'm enjoying reading your blog!!

    Cheers,

    Leslie
