Taking Responsibility-Aoi

I think my lifestyle sometimes has a bad effect on the environment. For example, I usually use my car even for short trips. This makes more air pollution. I also buy drinks in plastic bottles and throw them away, and I always get plastic bag when I go to shopping,so I create more waste.


These actions are harmful because they add to climate change and pollution. If many people do the same, the problem will become bigger.


To live more sustainably, I could walk or take the public transportation instead of driving everywhere. I can also use a reusable bottle and shopping bag. These changes are small, but they can help the environment in the long term.

    I feel you. I always get plastic bag when I go shopping, even though it's not difficult to bring my own shopping bag.. let's fix this habit together :)

    Hello, Aoi, I also have a similar daily routine as you. Therefore, I hope we can start by changing some small habits just like you mentioned such as bringing our own cup when we want to order a take away drink order to reduce the amount of non-reusable plastic cup usages.😊

    Driving a car or other means of transportation is very convenient. It also reflects the advancement of humankind by means of innovating and developing them. However, traveling or transporting by cars or other vehicles can affect environments. Gas-powered cars emit CO2 and electric cars indirectly consume coal. Hence, I do agree that walking is one of the best options for transportation. We can exercise anytime and anywhere. However, we can get tired if we take a long walk. Right? :p

    I agree with your solution idea. For short trips, public transport could be saved for you.

About me -- Hanako Iwatsuki

My name is Hanako Iwatsuki. I’m from Japan.  I’m currently living in Andersons Bay with Hugh family, but I’m going to move to another house in St Kilda with Hogan family next week. Andersons Bay is a lovely place near a beach. I’m really enjoying in Dunedin so far. Initially I love animals and nature, so I have been interested in them in Dunedin. In here, the animals and scenery are completely different from Japan, so I get excited every time I discover them.  When I was a high school student, my favourite subject was Japanese because in this subject, I could read some interesting Japanese literature.  The reason I chose this course is to improve my English skills especially speaking and writing skills, and critical thinking skills.  As I said, I love animals and nature, and to record them I started to practice photography. In addition, I like music, knitting, and reading (recently). I often do these hobbies in my free time. In contrast, I do not like study especiall...

About Me -- David

My name is David Woodfield, and I live in Māori Hill in Dunedin with my wife, Patricia, our toy poodle, Neo, and our Birman, QT. I like Dunedin for its vistas, historical buildings & vibrant cultural life. My favourite subject at high school and university was the history of art. I like relaxing with a good book and a coffee in a sunny spot. The kinds of books I enjoy include biographies, explorations of Christian history and ideas, and interior design tomes. I also enjoy listening to a wide variety of music and watching romantic comedies and science fiction movies. My good point, I would say, is my creativity & my bad is leaving things to the last minute. My goal is to be the person God created me to be, one step at a time.

About Me -- Miyu Tokumoto

 Hi, I’m Miyu TOKUMOTO from Japan. I’m 21 years old and I was born in Nara. I’m specializing in language course at university. I’m currently staying on Green Island with a lovely family, and there’s also an adorable dog named Charlie. My main goal here is to improve my conversation skills. Even back in Japan, I often have opportunities to interact with people from other countries, so I’d like to develop my English further and broaden my perspective. I’m a generally positive person, though I can be a bit shy at times. I’m really looking forward to the next four months with you!
