How Can We Stop Animal Abuse?

 

Dog farms abuse

                 How would you feel if you were hit,  pushed, have no food and locked up? Feel miserable right. That’s how some animals feel every day, especially in dog farms. In dog farms people lock dogs up for food. The cage’s are small meant for only one dog but instead they stuff 3-5 dogs in there.  How would you feel if you were in a small , small room? Or like in a coffin? That would freak me out. Dogs feel that every day on dog farms. They wimp, whine and cry. When mothers have pups the mother have no room to move, stand and  walk.. The mom of the pups just lay down and never move. She only gives milk to her pups. Then one day the pups get taken away from  their beloved mother and father. They take the dogs to a place where they skin the dogs and put them in malls to eat. We as Canadians should stop the dog farms in other countries

 

Every Day Abuse

                          Some people abuse animals because they’re mad or furious. Some don’t realize that there abusing animals. People abuse animals by hitting, not taken care of, abandoning them and punching hard. Pigs, cats, dogs, birds and more animals are feeling this every day. Some owners take care of them every day or try to, some abuse them. Animals are here to be loved. They don’t want any trouble, animals want to live a life. Even if they do something bad there’s no reason for hitting them or abusing them. Animals just want some love.

 

Here is a song about stop animal abuse.It’s Gotta Stop(The Animal Abuse Song) Video – YouTube

                     

How war changes children’s life?

While we sit in the comfort of our homes awaiting for Christmas, the amount of children orphaned due to the war in Syria is increasing every passing day. This war started by political conflict, has caused so much grief and pain to the citizens. One of the biggest issues are children losing their parents and becoming war orphans. There are over 3 million children being affected by the Syrian war. Many become all alone and need our help.

As seen in this picture, this boy has lost his brother and as his mom is in critical state and he is in the bring of becoming an orphan. This is the case in most children in Syria. They are suffering injuries and witnessing violence, while losing their parents and becoming lost and alone. Also, they suffer from illnesses, malnourishment, abuse and the stress from not knowing when they will be bombed. This is something we will never be able to imagine and will never fully understand until experienced.

The solution would be for many countries such as Canada to accept them as refugees. Also to open up a Syrian orphanage centre for these children to learn English and to interact with others. I read in other articles, that the first thing that these orphaned kids draw is blood. This shows that they are traumatized from looking at the war and losing their family right in front of them. Therefore, it would be . At the same time, it is important to uphold their culture and religion by helping them settle in their new country and new life while being able to practice their traditions. Lastly, the greatest solution is to make them feel welcomed and provide as much love and support.

How You Can Save The World

                

In some places, they have littered so badly that the ground they walk on is just garbage and if you throw your garbage in the wrong bin it won’t disintegrate. One way you can save the world is by not throwing your garbage on the ground and putting your garbage and recycling in the proper bin. If you don’t know the proper bins just search it up on google and if you still can’t remember which bin is which then just make a sign and put it in each bin. Also, put your leftover food and diapers and tissues in the compost instead of the garbage.(The compost is the green bin) Another way that you save the world is by walking to places or bike riding instead of driving a car. If you need to go somewhere that is far away just get an electric bike and use that so when you get tired to can just make it automatic. And if you don’t want to do any of those things there are cars the are better for the environment. Such as electric cars that charged by solar power or waterfalls like the falls give us some of our energy. Another way you can help save the world is by not drinking water out of plastic bottles because ”1,500 plastic water bottles are consumed every second.” The solution for the problem is simple to get a water bottle, drink out of a tap, or get a filter and drink out of the tap.

1. I chose this first photo because it shows how landfills are overflowing and how random thing are getting thrown in. Such as garbage bags, tires, wood drawers, and water bottles.

2. I chose this photo because in the photo you can see that the bus stop is covered in garbage.

Those are a few ways you can save the world.

Why we are Dying from Pollution?

Today Pollution is one of the biggest global issues, read more to how.

Pollution is killing our environment, killing plants, flowers and even us! We honestly need to stop polluting if we want this planet to have a bright future. We are putting wealth, buses, and money in front of our breathing air.

On of the biggest polluting thing is fossil fuels. We are burning fossil fuels to power our vehicles, and supply our large buildings. But kids in Beijing have to wear a breathing mask everyday because of the pollution from the burning of fossil fuels.

The big factories with all the smoke coming out. Those are killing us. That’s how we get sick from breathing that stuff in. It needs to end. This pollution is ruining our future, ruining our health, it takes just one person to make this change, then others will join  you.

 

There are many ways to try to stop this. Here are some ways below.

 

• We can stop the massive burning of fossil fuels. It’s killing us and little children in Beijing.

 

 

 

• We can stop the cutting down of trees, we cut down 2.47 million trees everyday, trees are great, we breath the air they are creating, the trees clean up our pollution, our carbon. Then we cut them down, burn them down. The burning is causing even more pollution, the big machines they cut them down with make pollution. We have cut down 50% of all of our trees in the last 100 years. Were doing this for money, were putting profit above people. Its disgraceful. Stop the Tree cutting down, it’s disgraceful.
• .

 

 

 

• We can stop using nuclear energy. Stop the nuclear factories, its one of the most polluting thing on earth.

 

 

 

• Gasoline cars, they pollute the Earth so much. Electric cars are the answer. But wait, the reason nobody is buying them is because they cost way to much. Lower the cost of electric cars to stop pollution. People will only buy gas cars because electric cars cost too much.

 

That is how, we can stop pollution, if you’re about to do one of these. Think about was your doing. Is it necessary.

 

WE ARE KILLING LIVING THINGS EVERY DAY!

Trees, and it needs to stop too many are being cut down there are 3-6 Billion Trees Cut Down a Year! Deforestation is permanent! We clear almost 18 million acres or 7 million hectares of forest each year which is close to the size of a small country, in order to make the land available for other uses. We don’t need to clear this much land because there is a lot of abandoned places like the Niagara square. We can use different materials to build houses and use abandoned buildings instead of cutting trees down in new places. Why can’t we just build around the trees? When we build houses only cut down what is needed. When we cut down the forest we are also destroying animal’s homes! We should find different ways to make stuff then using wood! What is made is not that important like candy wrappers or cereal boxes. But we can help fix these issues. We just need to plant back 2 trees when we cut one down and even more would be better. Right now 1.6 billion trees are planted back a year but it does not counter how many are being cut down! We need trees because they take the carbon dioxide and makes oxygen so we can breath. We can also use trees for food. Trees can produce 15 to 20 bushels of fruit each year. Trees also allow us to make medicine with the bark, leaves and roots. If you want to help, you can go paperless by not printing and use recycled products and materials. You could also go one step more and plant a tree!  So that is why I think we need to protect the trees and only cut down as much as we need. Don’t forget to hug a tree!

Why We Need to Stand Up To Animal Abuse

We need to stand up to animal abuse because it is wrong and they do not deserve to be treated this way, they do not have a voice so we need to be that voice. Right now, millions of mice, rats, rabbits, cats, dogs, and other animals are locked inside barren cages in laboratories across the country. They languish in pain, suffer from extreme frustration, ache with loneliness, and long to be free. Over 3.4 million cats are abused each year and over 3.9 million dogs get abused and approximately 7.6 million animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year.

 

Some of the types of abuse are  Neglect, Hoarding, Shooting, Fighting, Beating, Mutilation, Throwing, Stabbing, Burning, Vehicular. Dogs  are chained up all day without food, water and shelter. They have Untreated wounds. They somethings have to stay in freezing cold winter with nothing, in some countries the animals would work all day with no rest or food and water.

 

In my opinion animal abuse is a disgrace to humanity, animals are being testing on even though they have done nothing to us. I feel that we should tests are projects on humans that have killed people or have committed horrible crimes. It is not far that they get the punishment, people who have done horrible things should be the ones get this punishment

 

Their our many organizations like the “Best Friends Animal Society”, “Dumb Friends League”, “Humane Society Of The United States”, “PetSmart Charities”, “San Diego Humane Society and SPCA” San Francisco SPCA” that protect animal rights. And help stop animal abuse/testing. They also rescue animals and put them in shelters , they make sure the animals find a loving home

 

Stop Animal Abuse – YouTube I found a video that tells you what animal abuse is and how to stop it. It also show very heartbreaking photos

 

We should definitely stop animal abuse a fast as possible.

Pollution

How It’s affecting us

Did you know that pollution is one of the global killers, and is affecting over 100 Million people, that’s almost the same amount of people with diseases like malaria and HIV. Also did you know that in 1975 a national academy of sciences estimated that, cargo ships and cruise liners dumped 14 billion pounds of garbage in the ocean . Also did you know that over 1 million seabirds and, 100,000 sea mammals are killed each and every year by pollution. Also did you know that people that live in places with high polluted areas have a bigger chance of dieing.

The most polluted areas and cities are

-Zabol (Iran) 217.

Climate Change May Be More Severe Than You Think…

Climate change is one of today’s most pressing matters in the global community. Climate change is the change in weather patterns that have been the same for a long period of time.
You may ask how climate change happens, and I’ll tell  you. The sun keeps us warm by providing heat from its rays that it emits. The sun’s rays shine on Earth and the atmosphere bounces some back, but also traps some heat too. The atmosphere is like an insulation, and without that insulation, we will all freeze to death. The atmosphere is made up of gases and one of them is Carbon Dioxide (CO2), which also acts as one of the insulators in the atmosphere. Carbon is found in many places like plants and even in us! We release it in the form of a gaseous state (CO2) into the atmosphere by different activities like burning fossil fuels. In addition to releasing various greenhouse gases by natural phenomenon, more greenhouse gases are released by human activities (industrial etc.) Since we do that, the atmosphere has increased in percentage of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere. “Today’s atmosphere contains 42 per cent more carbon dioxide than it did before the industrial era.”I found the quoted part here: http://www.davidsuzuki.org/issues/climate-change/science/climate-change-basics/climate-change-101-1/
Some effects of climate change are … more frequent phenomenons like ‘El Niño and La Niña,’ unpredictable weather globally, the melting of polar icecaps, flooding of low lying land masses, adverse health conditions due to extreme weather, disruption of local ecosystem resulting in loss of plants and animals, endangerment of various species due to change in climatic conditions, and loss of life and property resulting in economic burden.
Being a big issue observed globally, there was an urgent need identified by all countries and various attempts were made to understand and rectify the problem with minimum impact to the economy.
Some ways countries are trying to reduce the adverse effects are like cutting down on greenhouse gas emissions, decreasing deforestation, afforestation, and the implementation of ‘Carbon Tax.’ I believe these options are really great ideas and are what I would do too.

How Air Pollution Is Killing Us And Our Home

Air pollution  is killing us and the place in which we live. It is a major problem happening in the world right now that has a major effect on us and our home. It is increasing by the hour, minute, second. “ Air pollution is the introduction of many harmful substances into the earth’s atmosphere”. Air pollution causes diseases, allergies, harm or death to humans and animals. It also causes damage to food crops and the natural environment. Air pollution is the number one most harmful and worst pollution out of all seven types of pollution.

 

Just how is it killing us? Keep reading to find out!  Finally the answer you been waiting for.  It starts by the burning of fossil fuels such as coal from factories, oil and gasoline from your car. Those fuels end up in the air which people end up breathing in. That air that people are breathing in is not good and very very bad for your health. Since the air is very unhealthy it can cause harm or/and death to people and animals. Air pollution kills more than five million people each year. Most of air pollution is caused by the use of cars so possibly you and many others cause the death of many people.

 

Air pollution as you know does not only harm and kill people, it is also killing the place we live. Our home…. Earth!  How is it killing and harming the earth? Well the same as it goes for humans. Bad fuels are put into the air and that air is causing things like global warming and it is thinning the ozone layer. The ozone layer is located in the earth’s atmosphere and it shields our planet from the sun’s ultraviolet  radiation. The ozone layer thinning causes skin cancer and damage to the natural environment. Both of these problems are seriously harming and beginning to kill earth. Air pollution can be less harmful or stopped by you lacking down on use of you car. Also it could be stopped if certain factories find a better way to produce there products.  Picture Below!
