TLP Reflection

From the teen life project, I learned a lot of things. I learned more about global warming's causes, effects, and solutions, I learned about teamwork, and I learned a whloe lot about the better uses of internet.

Before the teen life project began, I was in denial of all the environmental problems happening in the world because of global warming. People are dying because of the heat, people are dying because their crops are dying, and to summarize what is happening to the world, we can say... it is dying.The causes for global warming are mainly human-made causes, like deforestation, the burning of fossil fuels, the excessive use of electricity, and all the C2O that is let out in the air daily. Some solutions I learned that are effective are:
1. Reduce the C20 emissions by using less electricity and using less cars.
2. Reduce deforestation so more trees grow to make C20 into normal air.


The teen life project also taught me how to work better with partners and in groups. With my partner Valeria, I had a lot of disagreements, but at the end, we agreed on one thing. Working together with someone is a valuable lesson that will help you all throughout your life, like in your job for exampole, so I am very haapy about having learned that.TLP didn't only make us work in partners, but also with people from other schools. I worked with people from Malaysia and United States. We communicated by e-mail, and we split parts of the project so it would be easier.

What I really learned about was the different uses for the internet I didn't know of, like google reader. It really helped me a lot to communicate better with the students from other schools, and it REALLY helped me to make the research and to do the documentary
