The theme of discussion for the grade 6s this year is frozen beauty, where they find resolutions for the the arctic melting. In 6c, the delegates of Australia, Chile and Japan are all worried about the sea levels rising and how it is going to affect their countries.

The delegate of Chile is mainly preoccupied with the crops dying due to floods and long periods of heat, and how it is going to affect their economy. Australia agreed, as the delegates were very worried as to what was going to happen to the fauna of its country. Species like kangaroos, spiders and koalas would go extinct!

Japan followed up with an interesting point about their industries all relying on water and how their economy would collapse if no action is taken against rising sea levels.

All very good points brought up by the delegates and for the other countries listening!
