Ecological Intelligence

1. Ecology is the branch of biology that deals with the relations and interactions between organisms and their environment.

If a person has ecological stupidity s/he is going to destroy his enviroment and the other person who is ecological intelligent he's going to try to make it better, by thinking and reasoning about how to protect the world and not destroy it.

2. In my opinion, we're trying to be ecological intelligent by helping and improving the environment and our world . We must inspire people and help too, and not have people who don't care at all.

3. I think my ecological intelligence is not that advanced because I have much more to learn , and there are things that I don't even know exist. Its pretty depressing when I think about it . I try to be ecologically smart by recycling our trash at home, saving water, buying organic items at the store. Personally, I think it also helps that I am not into consumerism. I try to buy what I need only when I can. That way I don't waste unnecessary things.

Thrift Stores

1. When I saw how many people did our survey I was surprised that people actually do respond . Some of the result where a bit unprofessional and not realistic like they were just answering to just finish.
2. My expectations were to people take it seriously and they did some but still. Even thought they didn't have to take or if they didn't want to take they took it. I'm really grateful for the people who helped us do our survey .
3. What our campaign is going to be is to inspire people to go and shop on Thrift Stores and not be embarrassed just because its cheap, they might have good quality stuff.

1. What strikes me about this movie is the way they live. It really surprised me how they make their own food and milk. It's amazing! When they showed the animals, I said to myself, "Oh God what else do they have, a cow?" The dedication they had planting all those plants for months, it's really cool . I would like to help them but I'm not that hippie. One more thing isthey chose to use a bicycle not a car. In my opinion, what they're doing is really hardcore.

2. Well, Ishmael was talking to Julie about Fertile Crescent; it was an empty area of world to grow a garden not like deserts, now. He started to talk about the leavers people of Terpsichore .
Those people became full time farmers like the Dervaes Family. Well, not all the people. Another group did something else and so did another, they didn't think it was necessary.

3. This family is unique and determined to do a change . I like how they live simple , relaxing , peaceful and pacific. n short ,full time hippies in my opinion. And what really , really was shocking about it was that they didn't work at all. Well they worked in the farm, but outside their little jungle: no money, no technology, elsewhere to be found in their house , maybe a couple of things, but still.
This family has really made an impact in my life; it inspired me to make a difference too, but not that extreme.
