The Secret life of Plants

In collaboration with Qatar National Museum, Grade 6 students at Swiss International School Qatar have produced a magazine to preserve oral medical traditions and cultural practices. They also create ethical cosmetics and explore how football stadiums could feed hungry people. We are only young scientists so we do welcome feedback. This is a magazine written by children for children so there will be mistakes. Errata: Zaid's name is misspelled. The author is named Zade.

Football in the Middle East is very popular, the 2022 World<br />

Cup, and football superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo joining<br />

Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia made almost everyone know<br />

Middle Eastern football. Also natural turf (grass) almost<br />

can’t survive in these hot places, and if it survives it is very<br />

hard to keep it alive. Fans are also a problem. Some fans<br />

are going too far and are throwing things at players, caps,<br />

bottles, firecrackers, heads <strong>of</strong> animals, etc... When<br />

Barcelona won the Spanish ligue, La Liga Santander the<br />

opposition teams fans went on the pitch and attacked the<br />

Barcelona players, no Barcelona players were injured but it<br />

was close! Fights also happen, fans vs fans. Some fans get<br />

hurt or even worse! Food waste is also a big problem, the<br />

Wembley stadium is the largest stadium in the Uk and the<br />

second largest in Europe. It alone generates around 30<br />

tonnes <strong>of</strong> waste per year! Now imagine a stadium that<br />

solves all <strong>of</strong> these problems and is transportable! This<br />

essay is about exactly that!<br />

<strong>The</strong> Tottenham Hotspur stadium in England takes the food<br />

waste and gives it to the animals on the farm. Also<br />

Liverpool has their own garden and uses it at the stadium.<br />

Imagine if the food waste from the stadiums was given to<br />

the farm animals, then the poop <strong>of</strong> the animals could be<br />

used for the garden and for the grass on the pitch. <strong>The</strong>n<br />

the stadium could also include a farm and you could visit<br />

the farm if you paid for example 5 riyals. <strong>The</strong> same could<br />

be done for the garden! <br />

In a survey that I did with people from my class, 50% said<br />

that they would go to a zoo before a match and the other<br />

50% said that they would go to a garden. <strong>The</strong> average<br />

price for a visit was 79 riyals. Everyone liked the 974<br />

stadium's feature, that it is transportable. 2 People said<br />

that Lusail stadium is their favorite, and 1 person said that<br />

Al Janoub stadium is their favorite, and one person said<br />

that they don’t have a favorite. 2 People said that a<br />

stadium needs to have recycled materials to be Eco<br />

friendly, one person said that it needs to be reusable, and 2<br />

people said that nature should be in it. For the pillars I<br />

could use magnesium as it is one <strong>of</strong> the lightest metals,<br />

and is cheap. (Lee) For the stands I could use magnesium<br />

alloy, and on top carbon fiber because it is durable. For the<br />

seats I could make them from Polypropylene fiber (PPF),<br />

because it is very durable, and is lightweight so it is perfect<br />

for the stadium. Now that the stands are done we need to<br />

move on the protection for the fans and players. <br />

Sometimes fans clash in the stadium and have big fights so<br />

we need to eradicate that. Also when fans are happy or too<br />

excited they storm the pitch, which is very dangerous for<br />

the players. We can also make a section that is quieter for<br />

the families. Gerbera Daisies help with breathing so they<br />

can boost the players on the pitch (“Top 9 <strong>Plants</strong> That<br />

Provide Oxygen - Ferns N Petals”), also the color orange<br />

and yellow makes you happier (Stanton) and green makes<br />

you calmer (“Color Your World to Relieve Stress”).
