LI: To discuss the impact of volcanoes on the environment and human communities.

Our challenge was to research the impact of a specific volcanic eruption in Aotearoa. We could choose from Mt Tarawera or Whakaari and I chose Whakaari , by choosing this volcano I had found that not only it caused insufferable damage to lives and familys, with also 22 unfortunate souls being lost in the chaos, there had also been damages been caused to the surrounding area with it affecting the marine environment, the air quality and shutting the tourism industry for touring around the island. Researching this was fun and it was also a friendly reminder that life is more complicated than cupcakes, butterflies and rainbows.
