Finishing Up

For the final week of the blog, I'd like you to make some final reflections on what you've learned this year in ENGL 101 and what questions/concerns you have as you go forward into 102. Also, you can use this space to make some comments on the class readings on Thursday. Which readers did you like the most? What was it like to read your own writing out loud?

Since this is not a complete week, any entries you make this week will be extra credit.

Years of living dangerously

This series is called "Years of living dangerously" because of the living conditions these people have to go through in their hometowns. They are living with little to no water and are becoming violent with one another over water.  People have to kill each other in order to survive. Climate change is slowly killing the people of Bangladesh.

• Why does the show use celebrities--who are not climate scientists or experts--as narrators and investigators? 

The reason for this is because when people see famous people on shows they become more interested in it and are more eager to watch it. 

Why is the series called Years of Living Dangerously?

The movie we watched in class was called "Years of living dangerously" since it showed how violence happens when people don't have have water. The name of the movie does go with what people in these country endure. It's unsafe while they fight over who has control over wells and water supply.

How has climate change lead to violence?

Climate change is a showing problem, but Bangladesh will be the first place to be affected. Water supply is a serious problem in Bangladesh. It cause a gun fight between two villages. Those people fought for water, for survival is what we cannot image.
