Day: 11. March 2010

So, we have nuclear waste lying around with no way of getting rid of it, we have children enslaved in factories making products for richer countries, we have wars over religion, land, and what not. Easily curable diseases like measles and diaharea kill people because they have no access to proper medical care, children have machete and gunshot wounds because they got caught in the cross fire of a war. People barely older than us are kidnapped and forced into armies. AIDS still doesn’t have a cure, and chemo is hardly a cure for cancer. global warming, which some will say will kill us and some say it doesn’t even exist! Natural disaster after disaster is happening (three major earthquakes in three months. Haiti, Chili and Turkey.) Terrorist attacks, drugs, homelessness, endangered species, water shortages, etc. i don’t know about you, but i say we have a big problem.

i think if we all just help a little, then these problems will become managable. Because really, there is a lot more good people than corrupt ones. But i just don’t know what we can do. i mean, i’m twelve, i’m shy and i want to help, but i’ve never gone farther than that.  Do any of you have ideas? Do you think that if kids came together, we could make a difference, even if it’s a small one?
