A. We'll give tickets to those who participate to meet the singer at a later date, so there won't be any confusion.

Result

Q：agree

M: agree

K: agree

J : agree

We did not reach a consensus.


My thoughts

I did not understand the purpose of the event. I don't think it would be efficient to force all the people to participate. I think it would be more efficient to recruit people to help clean as volunteers and give something to those who participate, and I think that would make the participants feel good about cleaning. Human beings don't like to do things when they are forced to.

I don't think the suggestion of inviting singers is efficient. They said it was to increase the participation of young people, but I don't think there are any singers who would perform for free at an event held once every three months. It's just too unprofitable.

I think it's great that they are trying to clean up the country, but we need to discuss more details.

    Miyu, please give some background to the situation prior to the discussion and write your report more like a newspaper article and less like a bunch of questions and answers. You need to be more communicative in your writing.

  Topic : Farming fisheries in Apollon Gon : agree /  Sea resources are being depleted, so farmed fish will provide for it. The demand for seafood is increasing all over the world, so we aim to improve the economy by producing it in Apollo as well. Anna : agree / Raising farmed fish will improve the economy of Apollon. It is my dream to become such a profession. We are surrounded by a rich ocean and should do industry to take advantage of it. Me: disagree /  I am against fish farming.  Fish farming has a bad effect on natural fish.    It is not good for our beautiful seascape. My uncle is a fisherman, so he said there would be decrease their work.  Sora : disagree / Fish excrement and food residues pollute the ocean  I think there are three main problems with this topic. 1. environmental pollution       a. Our island is surrounded by coral reefs, so farmed fish will hurt them.       b. Farmed fish adversely affect natural fish. (e.g. making food from natural fish). 2. overfishing probl

 Pepper Gruber : Against She is an actress. She is opposed to shutting down the country for fear of losing her source of income as she has jobs abroad. She agreed with the idea of putting restrictions on the country, not shutting it down completely but when it turned out that the restrictions didn't include tourists, she changed her mind again to disagreeing with the idea. Gon Auden : Against  He is the owner of the bar. Most of the bar's customers are tourists, and closing down the country would make it difficult for him to operate. Therefore, he is against closing the country. He also suggested that instead of shutting down the country completely, he would put restrictions on it and make sure that masks are worn, acrylic plates and disinfection are used to prevent the virus. Anna Plowman : M Sora Swift : For  She is a hairdresser. Since most of the customers who come to her hairdressing salon are island residents, closing down the country will have little impact on them.

 Topic: Apollon candidate for the host country of G20 or not. Mia: neutral /  I think it is very good to have the economic benefits of holding the summit,  but I am not sure about the details.  I think there are both advantages and disadvantages to holding the summit.  I would like to hear more about the opinions of both side.
