Final Post

The Heaven Shop  by: Deborah Ellis. This book was a great book because it had alot of suspense and had a girl that was striped of everything she also lost herself in the process. This book was important to our class because we have learned about the life in Africa

The paper bag game: I thought about the strategy and I am looking forward to play it. The game will teach us about life in India and how lucky we are to have such a good one.

I think that Global Issues is a great class and you need to only bring an open mind. You will learn many things and great skills.

Peace Day

There were many main ideas from this video I saw about peace. First of all, I saw what Peace day actually does. Secondly, I saw that there was no need for violence and aggression in this world. In this world of violence I saw that a day of peace helps the despaired and gives hope to those without any resources. Thirdly, it unites the world and lets everybody hold hands. We would stop all the countless deaths that have been caused by war.

Peace is fundamental to the world so it doesn't tear itself apart. With peace the population of the diseased will be less. Aid and supply movement for the refugees and L.E.D.C. s would be easier. Without peace the world would fall apart there would be a lot of deaths and we would cease to live. With peace we learn to set aside our differences and come together.

Peace is highly linked with development. With peace the world could come together and help each other to rise and become developed and have the greatest of ideas debated and shared. If we could improve global partnership the world could combat the major issues of today and finish the M.D.G.s. If we can come together we can solve many mysteries and be great people with pride.

Cost of war might be hidden but sometimes there big. Recently Obama announced that the war in Iraq was over the news said that the final cost of the war was over 3.4 trillion dollars!!! There would have been many deaths and this would have been a tragic loss to the families on both sides.
