Canadian Pullout

A large number of Canadians want to pull their troops out of Afghanistan ASAP with no regard to the consequences. And while even though they dont have all that many troops there, the mental impact of it would be big. That would be showing the rest of the world that we cant even keep our closest geographical ally there to support us anymore. What kind of message would that send? And while we cant force them to stay there, we should do all we can to convince them.

The Bonobos

An African country is taking a new approach to wildlife. They are setting up a much larger preservation to help save the Bononbos, but they are trying something different this time. Usually preservations are useless because almost no one is there to prevent poaching, but now they are haveing people live on the land to protect these animals from being wiped out. Very Creative.

The Oroqen and the Olympics

The group of native people around Beijing (the Oroqen) are slowly being assimilated into Chinese society. Slowly, that is, until recently with the Olympics approaching. I think that they are similiar to the native americans of our country an should be helped, not hindered, into preserving their culture. But look what happened to the natives here, so who knows what will happen with them.

you might have to search "the most terrifying video you'll ever see"

Go and watch this youtube video, it will really change the way you look at global warming. We should just skip arguing about whether it is real or not and come up with solutions for each possible scenario so we are not caught off guard. Dont you thing that the costs of being over prepared far outweigh the socsts of being caught unprepared?
