Wasting Away | Day 5 Week 2




What do you think about this rule? Is it fair that people are charged up to $100 000 for overfishing? I think it isn't fair to pay 100,00 dollars that's kind of dumb.

It was polluted, they cleaned it and now it's fresh and people can swim in the Waikato River.



  • Everyone can chip in money
Give 100 dollars every year from every house.
  • Pay 200,00 dollars each year.

  1. Kia Ora Chavda,

    What an outstanding effort that you've worked for. I did the same activities like you too. The images that you've used looks nice. Nice statements that you've written down. I like your informative explanations for you 2 polluted rivers.

    What was your favourite activity?

    Nice Work!

  2. Kia Ora Chavda,

    Well done for completing another day’s worth of activities. Do you know why people could be fined because of overfishing? The fines system is in place so that people stick to the daily limits and minimum sizes of fish. This allows the fish population to regenerate so we will be able to fish for many more years to come.

    It’s great to read that work is being done to clean up both the Selwyn and Waikato rivers. I’m not sure about the Selwyn River but I know with the Waikato River there are still big parts of it that are unsafe. Which website did you find your information on? There are things that can be done to help and clean it up the rivers though. Something that farmers can do is to fence off all of the rivers, that way stock can’t get into the river.

    You have come up with some ways to get money to help the Great barrier Reef. But I don’t think all the households in Australia would want to pay money. Can you think of any fundraisers could help raise money for the Great Barrier Reef? I think a bake sale would be a great way. Can you think of three different fundraising ideas? Once you have edited your post in include your ideas comment below! That way I can check it out and hopefully award you will the full points for this activity!


    Blog ya later,

  3. Hi Chavda,
    Well done on finishing these three activities. I also think that it is kind of dumb if you get fined 100 thousand dollars just because you took a few more fish than you were supposed to. Hopefully the Selwyn and the Waikato rivers will get cleaned one day. Also, your ideas to raise money to help the Great Barrier Reef are great. Keep up the good work.
