Global Warming Group

posted by globalwarming on Jul 23

We started working on our question monday afternoon, after an interesting introduction by Pfister and Dinan. We were divided into groups, and as a part of the science and enviroment group, we made a list of concerning topics wich we narrowed in to nuclear waste and global warming. But the hardest part was to figure out a good angle to approach the topic, and enough background to the question. And, of course, how to word the question. We spent several hours in the library, wrote down a lot of questions, and tried to work out what question wast the most controversial. During the research, I think most of us learned many things we did not know to begin with. After some discussions and debates, each of the subgroups got to a question. We, in the global warming group, chose to focus on renewable resources, and comparing the U.S. with other countries when it comes to developing and using renewable resources. The only thing left was to write a storyboard and film the question. Me, Line, were to present and ask the question, and we found some pictures that went really well with the informative part of the question. We did the filming at a green spot here at the Wake Forest University, and recorded the text to go with the pictures. We put all the parts together, and it was great, just inside the timeframe of 30 seconds.
