Time article







1. I think Ecological Intelligence is like knowing the hidden impacts of what we but can change everything.




2. This connects to our project essential questions because in the article it does talk about how the people don't care. Like fore example where so picky that we have to have that specific green T-shirt and we don't even think of the process it goes through and the resources that are used just for only one shirt. But if we could seamlessly calculate the full lifetime effect in our actions on the earth and if we could think ecologically it would make a difference.




3. I think my ecological intelligence isn't high because i don't know much about it. But sometimes I'm aware of how much i waste so i think about what i can do like turning off the light when i don't need it or i try not to waste lots of paper and try to recycle.

Living Green :]




1. What strikes me about this film is to see how these people work so hard to live sustainably. How hard they work to be more caring about the world. Like they grow there own food and eat healthy. They walk or ride there bikes instead of driving. And how they use cooking tools to make there food instead of plugging in things.


2. In this film i think the Dervaes family is equal with the needs and wants. I think this because living green for them is a want but also a need because they need the things to grow everything.


3. I think how this film would fit to My Ishmael is because in the book Julie complained how the world was really selfish and not caring and how where all gonna die because of that. But this film is the total opposite of the book because these people actually care and aren't selfish.


4. My thoughts on this film is really good i liked how this people care about the world and care about trying to make things look good. And i liked how these people lived healthy and sustainable.
