Last week, our club advisor had a meeting during our weekly meeting. So she decided to leave Njukia and I in charge of the whole afternoon. Where we had the opportunity to lead the group and see where we were as responsible leaders.
During the meeting we started off with the weekly critique photos, after we did that we started to look at our project folders.
During this meeting I realized that this is just a club it is not a class, it does not always have to have law and order just some sort of strategy to keep us in line and not only that but to have goals to follow.

Global Issues Network
Today I was at the first meeting since the October break, last week sadly I was sick and was unable to go to GIN.
In our meeting today we went to the Library Lab and all logged onto the computers where we went on the internet and then went onto the sites www.slaveryfootprint.org where I found out that my slavery footprint is 60 slaves. After that we went to the site www.carbonfootprint.com or www.myfootprint.org or www.footprint.wwf.org.uk where I found out that if I were to measure it my carbon intake is that of the mentality of 5 and a half planets.
Next week we are going to be watching a movie. I'm excited to see it!

Students for the Environment
In the last couple of weeks, the fundraising committee along with the several committees are having several issues with the members in our group. They have not been able to cooperate with the student leaders and have not been able to meet even the lowest of expectations that are expected of them.
The International Day is tomorrow and so far only three people have signed up for time slots to organize, I don't know if anyone is going to actually bring in the balloons this is kinda frustrating. Luckily I do have the leaders of the group to help me but that is not enough to provide for the entire afternoon.
Mr. Paul and Ms. Sawant are starting to discuss issues that they have seen arising in our club since we started in August. Sadly with this discussion came the possibility of kicking out various members from various committees meaning that our club would become smaller, but if it means that we are getting even more done then we would have in the first place than I think we should take the risk and do what would benefit the club.
Hopefully, I am wrong about people not participating in tomorrows International Day and they follow through with what they originally committed to do.
