THE PROBLEMS

What's the Problem?

Ok, so as you probably guessed there are a lot of things wrong with the world today. Things that we could have avoided entirely but since we didn't, we now have to deal with. But before I go into how we can fix them, you should probably understand whaat the problems are first, and whyyy they are problems. Makes sense so far right? Okay, so please read on.

Saddest List in the World:

Hunger : There many people in countries that may not all functioned as well yours, that are suffering from hunger. Now i say, may because some of these people you pass everyday in your neighborhood, or even on your way to school. There are many reasons why someone might go hungry. They might have lost their job, can't work because of a disability, can't grow their food because of a famaine or natural disasters. But the saddest reason [because it can so easily be corrected], is greed. There a gorvernments out there who have the capacity and resources to feed their people but refuse to, because of selfish reasons or even prejudice.

Global Warming: An increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere, especially a sustained increase great enough to cause changes in the global climate. That was the dictionary definition for global warming. The increase in temperaure occurs when the atmosphere traps too much carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon dioxide comes from the exhaust of cars, homes, school, factories even us, so pretty much. So pretty much ALMOST everything gives off carbon dioxide, it's almost inevitable. The problem is that we have TOO MUCH CARBON DIOXIDE EMMISIONS!

Wars : There are wars everywhere! The are happining now in the Middle East, Mexico, just to name a few. And ALL OF THEM ARE POINTLESS. They could all have been avoided but there are really some stupid people on this earth. please click here to find out how you can help STOP Africa's longest running war.

Missing trees: Okay so the trees aren't really missing we all know what's happening to them. They are being chopped down and used for necessary things like housing, paper and so on. The problem is that trees are being chopped down faster than they can be planted, this is I believe is called deforestation. Deforestation is a terrible thing because trees are homes for many animals, they are good for shade, and they produce the oxygen that we need to live! [They are more reasons why deforestation is bad, but I think you get the idea.]

Depletion of Natural Resources: Okay so the world has a fixed amount of natural resources [oil, water and other things that we cannot produce]. This means that we only have a certain amount of materials that we can use, and if we use it up, well...then we're basically screwed =[. So it doesn't really help that the population growth rate is alarmingly high, because the more people there are, the greater the demand for the natural resources, which will result in fewer resources available. I know this all sounds bleak and depressing, because what are we going to do? We can't all stop having babies, just to preserve our resources right, i mean that's just wrong! So our only alternative is to preserve and look for better options.

Pollution: Honestly, i think pollution is inevitable. Sometimes, riding a bike or taking a train won't get you to where you want to go. Plus, we can't just eliminate all the factories in the world because we have become very dependent on them. So what are we to do? Well one thing is for sure, we can't use that as a justification to continue to cook our earth due to the greenhouse gas effect, or pollute our already scarce drinkable water. Nope, so please do continue to ride the trains and speak out against factories that are polluting the water that life lives in and we need to live.
