i used to think and now i think repost

When we began the study on electricity I didn't really understand it and I had very little interest in it however over the study I learned how important it is to this island and that I should really care about electricity and how it is made

I used to think that there was an abundance of electricity and electricity was made from burning fossil fuels and it was created by the steam emoted from those fossil fuels such as coal. I also used to think this because when we went to h-power they talked about how they use the steam emitted from the burning trash to create electricity. I thought that they used coal and burned the coal and used the steam created by the coal to create electricity. After today I learned that they do not use coal they use a much more abundant source. They use water and they burn it then after they burn it and convert it to steam they use the steam and make electricity. I am glad that they use water however I still wonder what materials they use to burn the water. i read this directly through hecos website which was one of the links.

I used to think that HECO made energy similar to h power in the sense that they both burned items to create electricity h power burned trash while HECO burned coal I know know that HECO uses water and creates it into steam while h power burns trash. They are both similar because in order for water to turn into steam it needs heat. i also leaaened about different ways that heco creates electricity from allot of their sorces.

I used to think that HECO stood for Honolulu electric company however know I know that it stands for Hawaiian electric company one of the readings wrote out hawaiian electric company and i connected the dots.

I used to think that all the boxes that were scattered along campus had the same use, and by boxes i mean the green ones that hold electric breakers inside of them along with the grey covered ones. I used to think that they all had one use and purpose however know I know that they have many uses such as breakers and monetaring the solar energy that is created by each box.

We have recently taken a quiz during class to discover what type of people we are. There are four different types of classes that could have been chosen. The four classes were guardian who are the cornerstone of society (as said on kersey), they are born to serve and preserve our most important social institutions. Guardians are also said to have a natural talent in managing goods and services. Idealist who are interested in personal growth and are always attempting to gain self knowledge and self improvement and want to help others on those causalities as well. The third characteristic is artisan and an artisan is someone who accelerate in all types of arts. And the fourth characteristic is a rational. A rational is a person who solves many complex problems that deal with the world around us.

I was surprised to be an artisan because they are more centered around art and sports which I am not really centered around. I like to play sports however I am the worst artist. I do agree about the sports side because I do enjoy playing sports. I do agree because it said that I was a visual learner which I do agree with. I have noticed that I memorize things better by looking at them so I agree with my results. i liked being called an artisan because only 7% of people in this world are artisans. i also can relate to an artisans because they are people who blurt out things and speak without thinking and i do that a lot. there way of solving problems is mathematically based and that is 100% me.

The results from the other quiz said that I was more of a global learner which means that I don't focus on details however I disagree because in every math problem I focus on how I got the result rather than what the result is however other than that I agree with all my other results.

The three goal

I want to get an A+ in every class

i will accomplish by attempting to pick partners that will help me with the project instead of helping me and encouraging me to play games. i also want a partner that can keep me on track. i will also complete all my homework on time and do it very well.

I would like to win three matches for mid PAC tennis team

i will continue my training routine which includes 100 sit-ups a day and a five mile run on Monday and Friday. i will also continue my strength training with the medicine ball. i plan to play continue playing tennis for 15 hours on the weekends as well.

I would also like to learn how to play a new sport.

i have been stuck with only playing tennis and i want to play something else such as air riflery. i want to do air riflery in particular because i saw how much fun it looked and since I've shot a gun before many times i think that i could have potential in this sport. i would like to play a sport for the opportunity to gain an extra P.E. credit.

3 big takeways

during this week there were many important details and facts that i learned however these are the three facts that i thought were the most important details for this past week.

 

the thing that will stick with me most is that climate change is a very big deal. i thought that it was an issue however i never knew that it was that large of a deal. i thought that it would change the climate however i never thought that it was already taking affect and that the affect it is having is quite large. i never knew that the water is acidifying, or anything about the ice caps however know that i know what is happening i cant believe that it is. i was personally astonished at all the changes that were happening and i began to get scared for the after affect that is going to happen

 

the second takeaway from this week was the amount of carbon dioxide we are putting in the air and how we are disregarding the safety numberers that were put in place. i was amazed at how there was no mention of any large scale change happening. the politicians are all saying we have to do this and that but i really don't see them doing anything at all to help out the earths climate and that makes me fell sad. i am sad because of the greed that certain people have and because of that greed they don't want to help the planet they just want to get rich.

 

the third largest takeaway from this week is that the politicians all signed a contract as an agreement to keep the earths climate from rising two degrees however they don't have any comities that really check up on that and they don't seem to be all doing the same things to be limiting climate change.

Power plant reflection

Today we went on a field trip to Hawaiian electric and I learned many things and I got to see how our islands electricity gets made. I learned that it is made in many different ways from the ocean to wind and even through heat. I enjoyed watching it being made through heat because I could see the fire which burned at 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. It was very interesting to observe that.

Today at the power plant my groups leader gave us a tour and I was facenated at how many machines there was just to make electricity. I love enjoyed walking around all the machines. As I was walking inside of the steam building I was fascinated by the control room which had so many buttons and controls. The control room was also really quiet which I liked

The facility was huge and I liked walking through the and observing all the machines and learning about there purposes.

Global warming

Global warming

 

Global warming is caused by changing of temperature in the earths atmosphere. The atmosphere is being heated by infer red gasses that are sent from the sun and trapped in the earths atmosphere it is also called the green house affect. The green house affect traps in infer red into the earths atmosphere and that is the cause of the earth heating up. The co2 creates a larger and stronger ozone layer to trap more infer red in. Because of global climate change the ice caps are melting and this is causing a rise in the sea level it is also causing the earth to heat up. The green house effect is trading in infer red into the Suns atmosphere.

The three goals

 

I want to get an A+ in every class

One way that I'll achieve it is by going beyond the expectations

 

I would like to win three matches for mid PAC tennis team

I will achieve this by practicing my backhand

 

I would also like to learn how to play a new sport.

I would like to complete another credit for high school.
