What are global issues ?

Global issues are problems that are in the world that are hard to fix but can be fixed, they may effect us in a negative way. For example: global warming, starvation, AIDS, HIV, poverty, not enough child education, war ect.

Why should I care ?

We should care because we can do something, we are very privileged and lucky compared to other people in the world. We can donate, we can reduce reuse and recycle, we can go on www.freerice.com and give rice to people. We should care because we are so lucky to have what we have and people out there having almost nothing. We also have the ability to reduce reuse and recycle so we can do it, that is why we should care because we are way more lucky than other people out there.
