= transdiciplinary theme: sharing the planet ﻿ =

Central Idea ** People have different levels of empathy and responsibility towards everyday problems and the decisions and actions **  ** we take have significant consequences for people and the environment. **

** An inquiry in to rights and responsibilities in the struggle to share finite resources with other people and with other living things; communities and the relationships within and between them; access to equal opportunities; peace and conflict resolution. **

= WHY ARE WE CONNECTED TO THAT? = ** Our group is working in reusing, what makes part from sharing finite resources and the environment. We are connected to that because if we use again items we would not need to produce so much, using less finite resources and helping the environment much more. Also it can be related to conflict because of all the wars for oil and fossil fuels, if we produce less, we will use less, so reusing is also connected to that. Reusing can make a better world. ** = Our Central Idea: humans ambitions make them compete with others for personal benefits, new properties and finite resources without caring of other things.=

** A **** lberto **

 * I compromise to reuse and follow this essential agreements. From now own I will try making this, so that later everyone reuses, we work as a better team, and with reusing we make a better world. Now that I have reflected and understood how important reusing is, and following this agreements as well, I will follow them and work as well as I can. I also hope everyone on school understands and take reusing as their habit, and specially will and want that smaller children learn how important reusing is and what can they do so than when they grow up they reuse, and now, with our new agreements I'm sure we will reach this. **


 * I think that is essential that we (I say we because i have also agreed to try and re use as much as possiblem, and not buy products that use excessive plastic) practice what we preach and are always looking for innovative ways to reuse. **

yes i thing that too, and nicolas, juan david and daniel, you need to make your own compromise too, each one of us needs to do one
