3/4C Debate!

Today members of 3/4C participated in a class debate! Groups worked together to create well informed and very persuasive arguments on the topic of Wind Farms. 

Students for wind farms argued how sustainable and environmentally friendly they are when creating electricity. Sean's group also said that they make a hill look pretty jazzy! 

The against side argued that wind turbines can be destructive to migrating birds who could fly into them! Maia used lots of emotive language and we were all convinced. Then Michael's group finished off by giving us lots of facts about more sustainable ways to create energy like geothermal power. 

In the end most people agreed that the negative side were more convincing. Well done to all!
