Water Explanation.

Why do you need to keep water clean?

So that the water of the earth can be clean and healthy, other many people have been

wasting water. It’s important to keep water away from that type of rubbish, when drinking water

make sure you stay healthy. Many people have not been taking care of clean water.

Drinking water, also known as potable water, is water that is safe to drink or to use for

when you eat.

For Example, all the animals including plants need to live. How do they live? They need water.

Plants have specific needs: light, air, water, nutrients, and space to survive and reproduce.

Almost all plants need these five things to survive, light. Water is one of the most important

substances for life on earth to function. It is equally important for humans as well as animals.

Even though the earth consists 70% of water, we could only use an extremely small part of it,

like when we drink water. 97% of the water is salty, like in the beach. 2% of the water is frozen.

Water covers about 71% of the earths surface. Water is a precious resource found on earth.

It is very essential to us. It is used in our daily needs like drinking, washing the clothes.

Water is inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance.

It's also too polluted to swim in and three quarters of native freshwater face. We need water for

drinking, cooking, bathing and cleaning. without water, life would be impossible on the planet.

Water is found on earth in the form of rivers, oceans, seas, ponds, lakes, streams and glaciers.

The composition of water remains the same throughout the earth.

Tongan History.

 The video I watched was about Tongan people wearing Ta’ovala. In the video it shows Tongan people wearing them including their own tupenu and kafa. You're probably wondering what a Kafa is? A Kafa is similar to a rope. It could be hardened and also soft, it is also something that wraps around your waist when you wear a Ta’ovala. Also about other important things in Tonga

You could also see them wearing it to church when you're there. Including your So-te as well. Doesn’t matter if you don’t have a Ta’ovala then just bring whatever you have like your Tupenu. They all wear it to any occasions that are special like a funeral, a dance, anything. When going to dances or Performances they wear Ta’ovala with leaves around their waist, also heaps of coconut oil on themselves.

The reason why they wear coconut oil is because it is a celebration of the symmetry of the human body as well as a mark of ancestral identity. When it comes to funerals, that’s like the saddest thing ever, because it’s one of your elders that passed on, or your family members. They’ll be put in a coffin, before that they clean the person up and get put in the coffin.

When Tongans go to a funeral, they are all dressed in black.

It’s the same, Tupenu, black so-te, and a Ta’ovala, Kafa. Those are the things you bring to a funeral. Another reason I have is that back in the day Tongans would always go overseas to fish and look for them while they go fishing, in their boat. They use the fishing rod or their own home made one to gather all the fish so that they don’t starve, so that they can fill their bodies up to stay energized.
