Last week at the Climate conference in Copenhagen not much was solved and or worked out. The overall climate effect is 3 degrees warmer in the third world countries which will most likely be close to 5 degrees in the coming three years. The United States proposed a debt relief of $10 billion to developing countries (Africa). This $10 billion seems pretty small in comparison to Obama's advancement of upwards $40 billion extra to support the war in Afghanistan. The United States has already spent upwards of $60 billion US for the war and another proposal is in the works for the war in Afghanistan. Due to climate change, Africa has estimated it will lose 70 million of their population due to starvation and another 100 million for lack of fresh water. In comparison to the affects the Western world has done to the developing countries through the greenhouse gas effect, $10 billion seems awfully small for the losses of population these countries will suffer and the amount that the United States has currently spent on funding the war. When sitting down and hashing through the results of the conference, not a whole lot was planned out to benefit the third world. Although $10 billion seems alot for developing countries, these countries may still be taken advantage of in the coming years due to greenhouse gases and climate change.Wednesday, December 30, 2009

Individuality
"This is you through self-concept" Individuality is the key to personailty and originality. Through living in ones self image and being different from other human beings, one can distinguish their individualism over all beings and the universe as a whole. Individuality is the pure image or persona of a persons statements, opinions and thoughts. By directing your feelings or thoughts towards your individualism as a human being you may differ yourself from everyone around you including society. With individuality you find the reason to express yourself as an individual and not a person belonging to a social scene. "Don't be afraid to be different" Individuality.
