Digital Tech, Hurumanu

For the past few weeks we have started a new hurumanu called Digital Tech. Digital Tech is where we were introduced to three different themes for issues in our earth. They were Ethical, Social and Environmental, I chose Environmental. 

My issue is that our house cats are killing off our native birds and that is NOT ok. But, a man named Gareth Morgan is trying to kill off our cats which is not ok either. So I am going to make a game or app to show that we can keep our native birds and house cats around at the same time.

This video was a youtube show and they were talking about how this man wants get rid of cats non stop. But, if we get rid of cats then there will be more rats and they are disgusting.

People think that if we get rid of cats It will be a good thing. ( that's what this website said I want to save the cats) The think that if we....
  • Get our cats neutered or spade
  • Put a bell on your cats collar
  • Not replacing your cat when It dies
  • Keeping it inside at night
that will solve the problem.

This website was about the other side of the story. They think that the cats should stay alive but we find a solution to save both the cats and the birds. They have a few ideas but the haven't made them public yet.

  2. Kia Ora Hayley,
    I enjoyed your blog post especially the parts were you named some things that you learnt, it proved to me that you had gone onto the website and actually gathered information, maybe next time you could make the title more eye- catching.
