The Poaching of Rhinos: Will it ever end?

The poaching of endangered animals has been around for many years. The poaching of the Rhinoceros is one of the most popular of the endangered animals that are killed every year for their parts. In South Africa, the rates of Rhinoceros went from millions to only about 10,000 known living today. The main reason for the poaching of the Rhinoceros is the horns. The horns of a rhinoceros are worth up to $60,000 dollars and is said to be worth more than gold. People use the rhinoceros horn to heal major diseases such as cancer. Almost 90% of the world’s rhinoceros has been killed and the numbers are slowly decreasing. Today, you can obtain a license for Rhino poaching. I believe that this is an issue that will be around until they are all gone. You can get up to 10 years from poaching and South Africa is trying to slow down the rates, but that hasn’t really stopped criminals from going after the value of the Rhinoceros.

Malnutrition of India: Will it ever stop?

Parts of India are one of the poorest countries in the World. Malnutrition of young children is one of the most devastating issues of India today. Lack of food and education of mothers takes over the villages of India.  Malnutrition comes from lack of food and nutrition from birth and up. One of the main reasons for malnutrition children is the lack of concern from the government. I think that putting food centers in villages are not helpful due to the fact that a lot of the food centers constantly have to wait on money from the government. Another reason for malnutrition is the lack of medical care when children fall sick. Most Children fall sick because of the dirty water and poor hygiene. The lack of nutrition also brings weak immune systems, which causes all kinds of infections. If they can’t afford to buy food how can the children see a doctor? Poor people of India are not the only one with malnutrition of their children; even wealthy families have a problem in their home because of the poor eating practices, and the lack of breasts feeding from birth to six months. The help centers of India are trying to teach young mothers how important it is. Since the early 90’s malnutrion in young children has almost doubled, and their goal of bringing down the number of malnutrition people by 2015 does not look promising.

Will Kenya make the right decision on the new president?

Kenya is one of the countries that will always have a huge gap between the rich and the poor. The rising crimes and jealousy lead to the stand still of Kenya and the economy. Politics are working hard to restore and rebuild many things for the community, and some believe that Prime Minister Raila Odinga, will help them get there. He is trying to pass bills to make the country better while at the same time fixing the past and current problems Kenya faces. One of the main issues of Kenya is the growing population; most of the people that crowd Kenya are the young children and teenagers, hoping to find work. Politics are working hard to open more jobs and more business for the people of Kenya. Most people have lost hope for the dramatically diverse countries only saying that the rich will get richer and the poor will remain poor.
