Summary: Hannah Marie Newman came up with a dress called 8. The dress has a bubble and an air tank pumps clean air into the bubble. This dress has solved the problem of air quality. It is really just a funny play on our air quality problems. The 8 will not be sold in stores or worn around for pleasure. Newman just wanted to show that the air quality pollution is a problem and if we do not solve it then this is the solution.
Reflection: This is pretty funny. Newman really put herself out there by challenging our government like this. This dress is very funny and will put the air quality problem in perspective for a lot of people. I hope that it doesn't come to people wearing bubble suits for clean air, but if it did then this would be a good solution. I am completely shocked and excited to see the future for our air.
Questions:
1. How do you feel about the bubble dress?
2. Do you think our government will do anything about the air soon?
3. How do you feel about the air quality problem?
This was really funny and extremely scary at the same time. Clearly, Newman is trying to get the point across that if we do not do something to solve the air quality problem, then we might all end up in these dresses someday. Hopefully, as a society, we can clean up our air quality and as a result never have to resort to wearing these bubble dresses. I know I would never want to wear one of those.
ReplyDelete3. I think it is a serious issue. We need to clean up our air quality because it will have HUGE impacts on us in the future. We need to consider the health of our future generations and clean up the air.

I thought this was very clever! Like Rachel said, it could be something that is normal in our future if we do not change the air pollution problems. This is a good way to make people more aware of the amount of pollution in our air.
