6. Script:Scene
Samantha: Can you give me a few examples of the different laws you have set
on Antarctica.
Natasha: Well, a few examples of the different laws we have set on Antarctica
include the rule of: Plans for scientific programs and the observations and
results thereof shall be freely exchanged; scientists may be exchanged
between expeditions.
Phiyona: Some good laws we have set in Antarctica are to not harm or come in
contact with any of the wildlife unless they are in peril.
Annette: Another example is that they are to inspect any Ships that travel to
Antarctica to make sure they do not carry any harmful objects that will hurt the
nature or wildlife.

7. Script - scene 3
Samantha: Tell me what was the main goal in forming the Antarctic Treaty and
what good does it do for the Antarctic Region and for the rest of the world.
Natasha: The main goal in forming the Antarctic Treaty is to protect Antarctica
and prevent any damage from happening. Antarctica is the only place that
hasn’t been ruined by human activity. If any damage is done it can ruin
everything else. Sammy - awww thats horrible
Phiyona: Our main goal in forming the Antarctic Treaty is to watch over and
protect this fragile environment and wildlife from any harm done from pollution
or from the hole in the ozone layer.
Annette: Also, we are trying to find ways to protect Antarctica from rapid global
warming, as this melts the sea ice and the mountain ice causing great fear to
many species including the Adelie Penguins.

Samantha: We’ll be back after this short commercial break, for the all important
weather weather news. Sponsored by the Antarctic Treaty.

10. Script: Hot Seat
Samantha: Now lets play HOT SEAT sponsored by the Antarctic Treaty.
Here we have Phiyona, Annette and Natasha on the hot seat.
Annette: (stands up)
Phiyona: Your question is what do you think the best part of the formation of
the antarctic treaty is?
Annette: Well i think the best part would have to be, knowing that we are
making a great future for all the wildlife that are living there and that we know
that we will preserve antarctica, and it will stay as beautiful as it is in the future
as it was thousands of years ago, i also think that it is wonderful that the future
generations will have the amazing scenery as we have today. But there is lots
more I haven't mentioned.

11. Script: Hot Seat
Phiyona: (stands up)
Natasha: Your Question is… What do you think the best way to prevent global
warming is?
Phiyona: In my opinion global warming can’t be stopped but it can be less
violent, i had this idea that if everybody in Australia (or anybody who can)
drives their car for only 20 min everyday in a week per month we will create
less global warming and help prevent the hole in the ozone layer from
expanding. But if you take baby steps I think that less rubbish, less use of cars
and saving electricity and gas is the easiest way to prevent global warming and
risking the life of the wildlife in Antarctica.

12. Script: Hot Seat
Natasha: (stands up)
Annette: What was the most amazing part of your trip to Antarctica last year
and if you were to go again what would you see again?
Natasha: This is actually a really hard question because i’ve never seen
anything like Antarctica and all the brilliant wildlife, but if i had to pick one it
would be when we visited the the penguins with their baby chicks, i even saved
one as it got stuck on one of our little boats, they were so amazing and I will
never forget them waddling around on the slippery ice.

13. Check To the Antarctic Treaty:
$1 000 000
Thank you for taking care of Antarctica! We hope that
this will help you research more and find out more
about global warming!
Proudly given by New News!

14. Script: Hot Seat
Annette: (stands up)
Phiyona: Why do you think it is important to preserve Antarctica.
Annette: There are many reasons for this, but some are that if we don’t care for
antarctica and let global warming take over, our oceans will rise and flood many
islands, and also we will lose many fascinating creatures and cause the sad
extinction of some of the worlds most wonderful animals. Also who wants this
beautiful land structures and ice formations to melt and become part of the
ocean with nothing to see. Antarctica is a wonderful continent and should be
preserved for years to come so that all future people will have the same
experience as we do.

15. Script: Hot Seat
Phiyona: (stand up)
Natasha: Your question will be If you could make up a new law on Antarctica
what would it be and why?
Phiyona: It would have to be that there are less visits made to Antarctica a year
and that if they are to visit, they are to not stay for longer than a month. I think
this is very important because even if the explorers that visit antarctica don’t do
anything wrong there footsteps on the snow can merely bring bacteria to
antarctica and if they are sick they can spread diseases, and its a safer
alternative just to let nature do its work and not to disrupt it, even if it wasn’t
meant to.

16. Script: Hot Seat
Natasha: (stand up)
Annette: Your Question is, What is your favourite species of penguin and why.
Natasha: My favourite penguin would have to be…………… .. . . . . . . the royal
penguin because they look so different with the yellow feathers on the tip of
their heads, and i even was 10 meters away from one on my last trip to
antarctica. They are very fascinating and are so unique, but very strong living in
the harsh weather of antarctica. So they have to be my favourite.

17. Script:
Samantha: Thats it for Today and the HOT
SEAT, but before we go we would like to
present a $1 000 000 check to the antarctic
treaty for there amazing help in the
preservation of antarctica. Thats it for tonight,
I’m Samantha Touma and thanks for watching.
