Blog #61: The World

There are a lot of things that are happening in the world now that concern me such as causing populations of animals to become extinct, our planet ending due to global warming, or the fact that we are constantly in war. It concerns me that the world is being taken for granted and that not enough people care about saving it. You would think if people heard about issues such as, populations of rare species becoming extinct, global warming, and war that they would want to help preserve our world while we still can do something about it. I am not one of those people who is all about going green to the extreme, but I do care about the planet and how there are little things that we could do individually to make it better. The economic state that we are in where gas prices are now raising to about 4 dollars a gallon, food prices are jumping up, and we are in debt concerns me. I do not fully understand all of the issues going on in the world today, and I probably should start to pay attention to the news more often, but I do get bits and pieces. It just concerns me how we can’t come up with some solutions to end the war, and I know it takes time and that we are working on it, but I feel that some of the things we do just create a bigger problem to solve. It also concerns me how some people take money and food for granted, when we should be more concerned about it. I am sorry about this blog. This topic is just really hard to write about for me.
