homework 4 楊舜帆 u1587 "ECHO"

Part I. About the Bluemen performance

A. Transcribe the complete text.

Your attention please. Thank you for choosing Earth
as your planetary vehicle. We hope you enjoy the many
wonderful features of this planet as you hurtle through
the cosmos. Please note, however, that in the event of
continued inaction in the face of global warming, your
seat cushion can be used as a flotation device. Also,
please take a moment to locate this planet's emergency
exists. As you can see, there aren't any. Earth.
To America! Can you hear? Sending out a message loud
and clear. Can you hear?

B. What do you think of this performance?

what an amazing performance I've ever seen!
They technically indicated the deterioration of global
warming in an innovative way. They used the spurting-tube
of truck as a strong beat of the background music.They
always expressed some ideas with a sense of humor.In that,
we would be more easier to figure out what they are
trying to clear up.

Part II. About global citizenship
A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
In many aspects, I think I'm already a global citizen.
First of all, I usually get the latest affairs around the
world from internet.As a result, I know what's happening
all of the world. Second, according that English and
Chinese are both the most dominant languages in the world
temporarily and I've already learned Chinese, I determined to
master in English.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
In my opinion, as long as I know there's disasters in some places,
I should not only feel pity for what agony those refugees
are experiencing but give they a hand.
There are some fundations raising funds in school for those
refugees in other countries. If I had any chances, I would
donate my allowance. Even if it's small numbers to me,
it will save one or more children in the other side of
the earth.

B. What do you think of this performance?
I think that the bluemen performance is a kind of alarming of the environment protection. Its' about time to raise up to save this earth. With modern technology like cars, motorbikes, and factory producing the pollutions, humanbeings has hurt the earth badly since the 19th century. So we could not go on our destruction. We need to do something to change the world. First, try to use the air conditioner less; it's very healthy for us to sweat in summer. Second, read daily news online instead of reading newspapers, in this way we could cut fewer trees everyday. Third, no matter what kind of the resource, we all need to cherish it. Don't waste anything!!!


Part II

Be a global citizen, I should care what is happening around the world and what can I do to help or improve is plant I live on. In this way, I think I can become a better global citizen.

B. What do you think of this performance?

I think it's quite an inspiring video clip. Though we aren't really citizen of America, the content of the clip still applies to everyone on this planet. As long as each person make a little endeavour to stop global warming and pollution, I believe this though could be the best medicine to cure earth.

Part II About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen.

Not every person is born a global citizen. What makes someone a global citizen is when he becomes connected to the society and then takes his responsibility toward the earth.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?

There are many ways to preserve the environment, the simplest one is to start from our daily life. For instance, we could use resources which could be recycled instead of those could bear using only once. In addition, we should spend energy effectively, to take mass transportation system, or to avoid unnecessary waste of electricity or water. It's quite impossible to ask everyone to insist those principles, however, I will still keep those rules. Because I believe that as long as I keep doing it, there would be one more people trying to protect the environment, but not one more people making garbages to destroy it.

What do you think of this performance?
I have seen some of the bluemen's performances before. Before, I thought nothing of the
Bluemen, I though they were just a group who does wierd actions and music, but after
watching the video lots of thought came to my mind. With the rythm and some scenes
of consequence the pollution have made going on, it deeply went into my heart, it
stimulates deep thoughts.I think this performance is excellent, it is full of meanings.
In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
I think as long as we live in the same planet earth, we are all global citizens. The difference
is just that how conscientious we are at doing our part in helping the earth. Maybe I haven't
done much, but when I see garbage that are not mine around me, I would pick it up no
matter whose it was. But I know there are more things that could be done to improve our
environment.
How can you become a better global citizen?
There are heaps of things that could be done. For example, recyle our rubbish, take the bus
instead of using our own motor bikes or cars, using our own dining utensils instead of
disposable ones ... and a lot more.

B. What do you think of this performance
I think it is interesting, fascinating and makes people think seriously.
makes people to really think hard what's going on in the world.
as we live everyday lives, what's on the other side of the world
what r those truths, facts having long been hidden from us
WHAT we haven't been informed of
yeah, it's time to THINK.
recently, "an inconvenient truth" released, people calling on people
to come forward to protect the environment, etc.
I think that it's good that people are taking action to protect the earth!
everyone has his way, and so does Blueman!

PART II
A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
I actullay pay attention to what's happening in the world.
so I read as much international news as possible everyday.
as a human being, I don't feel like existing if I don't know what's
going on out there. instinctively, I tend to read and listen to
international news. instinctively, I wanna share their pain and
suffering. I want them to know that I'm part of human beings, we are
all together on the planet. we should love each other and help each
other out. I think I am a global citizen coz I put my heart in the
world and I truly take action into caring this world.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
while continuing on gaining knowledge of the world, I also share
information with friends and ask them to join in to become a better
global citizen.
I just checked the website of the inconvenient truth, and here's some
great advices to help improve the condition of the earth:
Use less hot water
It takes a lot of energy to heat water. You can use less hot water by
installing a low flow showerhead (350 pounds of carbon dioxide saved
per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds
saved per year) instead of hot.

Unplug electronics from the wall when you're not using them
Even when turned off, things like hairdryers, cell phone chargers and
televisions use energy. In fact, the energy used to keep display
clocks lit and memory chips working accounts for 5 percent of total
domestic energy consumption and spews 18 million tons of carbon into
the atmosphere every year!

for more, you can check http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/whatyoucando/
there are 6 pages and I believe you'll find these practical!

B. What do you think of this performance?
I have never seen this kind of performance before and I think it is cool to utilize vision effect combining the sound,expressing the idea that they want people to know,to care about. In my opinion,it conveys an issue-GLOBAL WARMING,which is resulted from human that produce a lot of exhaust,such as vehicle exhaust,factory exhaust,etc.polluting our earth.
Part II About global citizenship
A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
I think if a person who has an international sense,no discrimination(ethnic,religion,gender......)to others and realize how to respect our natural as our own mother can be a global citizen.Besides,a global citizen who does things not only considers his/herself interest but also for social interest and makes our world get better and better.
B. How can you become a better global citizen?
I can do something around me first,for example,classifying the trash,taking the public transportation more often to cut down the use of resources and lower the exhaust pollution.If your abilities permitted donate something useful to the needy.Although,everyone can do is limited,the more people distribute,the large the power will be!

b) What do you think of this performance?

I think the performance is pretty awesome. They created music and added the video part to it perfectly.
It is a great musical performance without the global warming disasters already, but it became so meaningful
once the videos are complete. I didn't know Bluemen are that much concerning about the world. Now I have totally
change my mind about them.


Part II About global citizenship
a) In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
I am actually a person who participate in water sports a lot, and when I am at the beach, I often try to collect as much
garbage as possible. I think if very one did their own small part of this, the beach would be so much cleaner than it is right now.
As a surfer, I love the ocean, and I want it to be clean and keeping in good condition for anyone who would like to go.

b) How can you become a better global citizen?
I think I can start by using public transportation more often. In addition, our earth can be a better place for us to live.
Like I said in the last paragraph, if very one do a little, it would be a lot for the whole planet.

B. What do you think of this performance?

I can't express my feelings exactly. The strong beats drew my attention and I couldn't help but watch it again and again in order to figure out what the three blueman wanted people know. After so many times watching the performance, although I still can't understand some words, I thought that I understand a little bit of message they tried to send it to us. Words shwon in the middle block really made me thought of the movie"An Inconvenient Truth". I often have the question why so many administrators don't stop their verbal battles and give priority to facing the global warming problem. Isn't the problem clear enough? Or isn't it serious enough? Sometimes I'm angry at them but immediately I know that the anger is useless. The last twenty seconds really touched me and made an impression on me. The chimney emitted chemical fumes, a large part of iceberg was broken. And again, the emission from the chimney and the broken of iceberg. Harmful fumes are continuous emitted and pollute the earth and do great damages to the atmosphere! I don't know how to specifically describe my feelings. I have only one word to say-HEARTBREAKING. The unusual increment of greenhouse gas rises the water level and tsunamis and hurricanes caused the more serious aftermath. Everytime I see such news, I take so much pity on the people lives in the disaster areas. "Can't someone help them?" I almost yell. There're still something that I don't know the reason why the blueman on the right side wore snorkel and why the performance ended up with all things concentrate on one point near Australia. Is the point being the water hemisphere?

Part II :About global citizenship

A.In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?

I take buses to school rather than riding on motorcycle and I do recycling instead of just dumping bottles or papers in the general trash. Besides, I usually put a small plastic bag in my bag to put things I bought and use the same bag again and again.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?

Perhaps I can only make a very small effect on the earth, but I'll keep doing recycling and take care of global news more frequently and more actively. I think that will really help to the lifetime of earth.

In order to understand who they are
I went to their official website ( http://www.blueman.com/ )
It seems like they are a famous performing groups
I think this is an important thing that everyone should contribute to the Earth
Especially in the case of global warming is seriously now
As a well-known groups
They are more responsibility to promote the public
so I think this performance is very good
They did a good job

Part II About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
In order to understand what is global citizen
I visit a lot of web page about global citizen
And I found the best explanation on this website
You can check it out
I think I'm already a global citizen
Because I care about this world
I care whether my actions make life better or worse for other people
And how I can change it for the better
I bring bags when shopping.
I rarely drink beverages as their containers were plastic
I love this planet I live in, I want it to get better

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
1.Buy fair trade
Fair Trade is when people who grow and produce food (ex: coffee &chocolate) and other products (e.g. clothing) are paid a fair price for their work. This helps make sure they have enough money to look after themselves and their families, and also makes sure that they work in safe conditions.
2.Stand up for people living in poverty
3.Get involved, in even the smallest way, in making the world a better place
4.Make recycling

Blue Man's MV
At the very beginning of this MV,there are three blocks which has one man wearing blue paint respectively.
They hit their heads against the border of the block to make something like drum.Then,some words take place of the
man in the medial such as Your Attention Please. Planetary VEHICLE, we hope you enjoy the many
wonderful features of this planet, as you hurtle to through the cosmos. PLEASE NOTE, however, that in the event of
continued inaction in the face of GLOBAL WARMING.Your seat cushion can be used as a flotation device,

Moreover,there are some images appear with these words which are chimneies,traffic,and the melting iceberg.
These pictures stand for the message which send by earth.
I think the drum is the sound which try to wake human beings up.Wake human beings up from the violation of
our mother:earth.Foremore,the sentence "to locate this planet's EMERGENCY EXITS as you can see,there aren't any."
what A astonishing message. After all,this MV is not only something about Global warming but also something about
the compunction of human beings.
About global citizenship Since my parents have take apart of Tzu Chi Foundation,my family are accustomed to recycle any stuff which is still usiable.However,I think I am not a good global citizenship,because I still like to drink drink.Moreover,I didn't left no stone untured to understand how to improve and pretect our earth. How to become a better one I think I should be more active to make some difference instead of just recycle passivily.Fortheover, I should be more interested about any subject about earth.I can read more news about this subject,and take part in eco-awareness groups to do something for our earth.

B.What do you think of this performance?
Actually, I have heard of the Blueman a few years ago. From what I've known, they are a really famous music group. And it's happy to think that more and more people in the spotlight are jumping out to warn everyone about the seriousness of global warming. Former presidential candidate Al Gore received Nobel Prize for that is a great example.
Although I know what issue the movieclip is aiming at, I couldn't really understand what they were performing. To me, the movieclip is a little bit too "abstract".

Part II. About global citizenship
A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?

Born on the same planet, everyone of us were "global citizens" from the very moment we first took our breath. And thanks to the fast development of technology, we can travel to every place in the world ever faster than before. Moreover, with the help of the internet, we can gain access to things that happened in the world simultaneously simply by just clicking on the mouse. I really like to read about the international news on the newspaper or online. These, as a whole, makes me feel truly engaged in the outer world around me.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
I think there are many ways of being a global citizen, the simplist one is to take concern about what happens in the world often through news, magazines, etc. That is also the easiest thing for students like us can do. Another thing we can easily do is to protect the environment, such as don't litter, recycle often, etc.
How am I going to become a better citizen? Good question. I haven't really thought of that before. I think when I have the spare money , I would make donations by helping those in need to faraway countries such as Africa. That is one way I can think of. "Global Citizens" need to make their best effort to help those in need. By doing this, our planet would surely be a much better place to live in.

B. What do you think of Blue men's performance?
I love this performance.
It is really funny.
It contains cadenced music and active body langrage.
Reminding us of the global warming.
I have heard of this group before.
And I was very impressed when I saw their performance at the first time.
The blue color painted on them is really strange.
I think that may have some special meanings.
Maybe it represents peace or environmental protection.
Or just a trick to catch people's eye.
It really has a great effect upon me, come hell or high water.
II. About global citizenship
A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
I haven't thought that I am a global citizen yet.
The thing that I do, the conversation that I have is all around my life.
I sometimes read news but it is not enough.
I think I have to build more bridges to the world.
Take something for example.
Increasing the time and heightening the frequency to watch news on TV or read newspaper.
Gaining the concern about not only Taiwan but also other countries, and then about the world.
B. How can you become a better global citizen?
I may attend better to the global issues, like greenhouse effect or the hole of the ozone shield.
Participating some activities of the world, like World Earth Day or World No-Smoking Day or World Environment Day.
Doing something good to the earth.
For example, making green by planting trees and recycling.
The last but not the least, concerning about the news all around the world regularly and frequently.

B. What do you think of Buleman's performance?

I never saw this kind of performances before , so it is kind of fresh to me .The color which was painted on they is quit strange . After having the first impression , I think of that maybe it represents the main color of mother earth or just one kind of ways to get people's attention . As far as I am concerned , it's really important to appear some voices to speak out for the mother earth and remind us the urgent issues of environment protection .

B. What do you think of this performance?

What a brilliant performance! I have heard of this group, BLUE MAN, a few years ago. I was impressed when I saw their performance at the very first time. It is not until today do I realize that they bring not only entertainment but also education to us. I love the idea of using things like tubes to make strong beats, which I think is also appeal to everyone. "Global Warming" is a global crisis which everyone knows but pays little attention to. They choose this theme as their topic in order to catch the viewers' attention, so that everyone could face this problem again seriously and try to do something about it.


Part II. About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?

Through the innovation of new technologies, such as the Internet and communications satellites, the whole world becomes a "Global Village". It's convenient to catch up with the world's latest event by using these inventions. I don't always have time to watch TV news, but I'll glance at the headlines on the homepage of YAHOO website. In this way, I can at least get a superficial view of the world affairs. Therefore, I think I'm already a global citizen.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?

Whenever I think of those homeless polar bears in the North Pole(because the glaciers melt away swiftly), I do my best to save this planet. I turnoff the lights as soon as I leave the room, reuse things that can be used again, reduce the amount of the wastes I make, and so on. I'll also try to remind my family and my friends of the seriousness of global warming. As long as everyone bears the responsibility of saving this planet, I believe the world will become better and better.

B. What do you think of this performance?
This performance uses a very unique way publicizing the danger of earth caused by global warming . It impresses people and stricks me when seeing the words " AS YOU CAN SEE , THERE AREN'T ANY ( exit ) ". He's right , we have only one earth and no elsewhere can go .( stop hopefully expecting that there will be another planet letting us move in in the future , the global warming is right now ! ozone hole is getting bigger and bigger right now ! acid rain is everywhere right now ! we are suffered from all these right now ! ) It is essential for us to put " stop global warming " into practice other than just know it .

I can throw garbage into garbage cans, take bus or MRT instead of ride motorcycle by myself, use less water, turn off applications when I don' have to use them.

Your Attention please. Thank you for choosing Earth as your planetary vehicle. We hope you enjoy many wonderful features of this planet as your hurtle through the cosmos. Please note. However, that in the event continued inaction in face of global warming. Your seat cushion can be used as a flotation device. Also, please take a moment to locate this planet's emergency exits. As you can see, there aren't any. Earth to America! Can you hear? Sending out a message. Loud and clear. Can you hear?

B. What do you think of this performance?
The performance is quite funny. Blue Men used thier heads to beat tempo and used little movie to follow the tempo. That is an interesting way to remind people to notice the global warming problem. Everyone knows that the environment is worse and worse, everybody took this thing as a serious thing. But seldom people use cushion way to treat it. I think it is a good performance for us to feast on it.

Part II:About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?
The dictionary defines "citizen" as "a person who is a member of a particular country and who has rights because of being born there or because of being given rights, or a person who lives in a particular town or city". We born on the earth and have rights to use natural resource. When I do my best to protect the earth and do my effort to concern the enviroment issue, I think I am a global citizen. I do the recycle every moment when I have the chance. I concern International News at least twice a week. I take myself as a global citizen.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?
I think the better way to become a better global citizen is to involve in the national organization. When you in a group, you will give much more attentiveness on that.
But now I have no time and no other mind to attend any national groups. I still will concern the issue and do all of the above-mentioned things in my life. If I have more free time, I surely will go to the organization which I am interested in and have lots of passion on it to become a wonderful global citizen.

B. What do you think of this performance?

Global Warming has been the important issue during these years. However, the leaders of many countries still live what they used to be and didn't notice that the earth they count on for is weaker and weaker. Therefore, the performance of the bluemans is appeared. They want every one to take notice on this issue even if the others don't concern.

Part II About global citizenship

A. In what ways do you think you are already a global citizen?

When I watch the news on the television, when I use the internet to chat with my friends in different countries, when I use the cellphone to talk to my aunty in America, I think I am a global citizen. I don't have to worry the distance between me and other people in different places, because there are no distance. With the technology these years, everything becomes possible.

B. How can you become a better global citizen?

To become a better global citizen, I need to respect other cultures. If you still lock yourself in your own circle and do not know how to connect with defferent people with different customs, then you're not a global citizen, you're just a citizen in you own country.
