Dawn of a thirsty century

I read "Dawn of a thirsty century". I was surprised to find that only 2.5% of the water on earth is not salty. Considering that the world is 2/3 water, 2 and a half percent is hardly enough to quench the thirst of the billions of its inhabitants. I think that an alternate form of acquiring h2o. Maybe we could filter out the ocean water somehow.

Drought declared in California

The article "Drought declared in California" is about how governor Arnold Schwarzenegger declared a state wide drought in California. He said that if California does not cut down the water usage they would take matters into their own hands like for example rationing their water. With a lot of water missing the crops are going to be affected and many farms will go out and wont be able to produce more goods. Everyone should take part i conserving water to save our environment and have a better life and not have to fight for our survival. We should try and conserve water so that we can have a better future and no one would have to suffer.

Dawn of a thirsty century

The article I read today is about the the amount of water. The amount of water in the world is limited and this is causing many droughts around the world. In the article it said that 2.5 % of the world's water in not salty and that two thirds of that is locked up in the ice caps and the glaciers. So that doesn't leave to much water for the human race to have because we have to share it with all the living creatures. This includes all the animals. The humans have less than 0.08% of all the earth's water. So we may run out if water any time soon.

Drought Declared in California

Our governor of California has finally declared a drought throughout the whole state. California needs help from the Sierra Nevada Mountains to get more water. We have been way below average on average rainfall and now we are paying consequences for not using our water carefully. We might have to start water rationing and use the water wisely. The amount of crops planted would decline and that would cost farmers money.

Kyoto

The reason that Kyoto is involved in climate change is that it's like a treaty between 160 countries which is to decrease emissions from 2008 to 2012. The reason this was made was to lower the amount of co2 let in the air.

In his confession he says that he has bought explosives and has been training suicide bombings.

TeRrOrIsM!!!!

Terrorism has been an important issue in San Diego, or anyother state. Terrorism can be described as a crime or justified reaction to oppression and an inexcusable abomination. Of course it depends on who's point of view is being represented. Terrorism has become common among those pursuing goals throughout the world. In the U.S terrorism is a nebulous concept. Well for me terrorism is something really dangerous and that's the cause of why a lot of people is dyeing. Everytime there's a terrorism in our state innocent people its affected by this.

Pentagon: Suspected Mastermind of USS Cole Bombing Confesses

The article "Pentagon:Suspected Mastermind of USS Cole Bombing Confesses" talks about how Waleed Mohammed Bin Attash bombed the battle ship USS Cole. Which he admitted that he took part in buying the explosives and fixing them to make a deadly impact on the ship. He too admitted he had planned some things for 9/11 the pentagon had gotten a confession of some other planned attacks. This obviously relates to terrorism because many people affected they get scared and fear for themselves and their loved ones. I think that people like him are dumb because why would they kill themselves just to worship another guy or to make him happy. Making other people die just so that you could make your country and your family proud that is just plain stupid.

Patriot Act draws privacy concerns

The article I read today was about how president Bush signed the USA Patriot Act. This act gives federal authority to tag telephone and track the Internet. The bill was passed after the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center in New York and The Pentagon. This bill is to track down any act of terrorism that wants to or is going to take place. But with this hopefully nothing else like the attacks that have happen before happen again, that way no innocent have to die.

Suspected Mastermind of USS cole bombing

The article I read was about a man that confessed to plotting and attacking a United States Naval boat called the USS Cole the man's name was Waleed Mohammed Bin Attash he confessed at a hearing in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and another man by the name khalid sheikh mohammed confessed to nearly three dozen plots of terrorism including the 9/11 attacking on the twin towers this subject relates to the terrorist attacks that have been occurring lately I think that this article is very informing because it is something i never knew before and it showed me something i didnt know

Terrorism Research

Terrorism is something that gets mistaken for a criminal act. Terrorism is a unlawful way to go about things and it's not right. Terrorism is a way for somebody to take away someones rights. What I think about terrorism is that it is something a person or a group of people do to get there way and hurt someone that their inferior to. I think that this relates to our bombing that we had in 9/11 and this could happen to any country they want.

Food Storages:how will we feed the world?

The article I read talked about how the food prices are going up. This is a big problem because this could be a big cause of global growth and security. Now days people want to eat even more meat and the rice-growing land in countries is being lost to industrialisation and urbanisation. This is a big cause of poverty.

Food shortages: how will we feed the world?

Food shortages are happening all over the world the rise of food cost and inflation have led to food riots all everywhere.With the food shortages it effects the countries that its taking place greatly by wiping out the progress to reduce the poverty level and it could effect the rest of the world by harming global growth and security.The reasons for these high prices are because of the demand of grain to feed livestock and massive droughts in some places around the world the food shortages it effects 100 million people

40 Countries Face Food Shortages

Throughout the world food shortages has been huge problems for countries. The climate change is an effect on the food production all around the world. In parts of the world the temperature gets warmer in an area or it gets colder and it effects the way the crops grow. Floods throughout Asia is taking out tons of crops and in South Korea they have been receiving relief help. Although this article is about food shortages climate change is a big effect of these shortages. Another example is like the hurricanes hitting South America which makes them need more food.
