People are dying almost every day because of poverty, climate change, violence, malnourishment and hunger, and so much more. From people starving to death and fighting poverty each day, one in three women (30%) globally goes through violence according to WHO (World Health Organization), weather patterns that threaten meal production to rising sea levels increase flooding chances. We need to stop this at once.
Why is Poverty bad? It forces people, usually children, to experience substandard housing, homelessness, food insecurity, weak child care, lack of health care, dangerous neighborhoods, and so much more. Why is Climate Change bad? Continuing drought, storms, heat waves, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and warming oceans harm animals, destroy their habitat, and ruin people's homes/communities. As Climate Change worsens, the higher the chances are that these small storms could turn intense quickly.
Why is VIOLENCE so bad!? Each death or injury caused by violence causes dozens of hospitalizations, emergency department visits, and many doctor's appointments. Violence is the use of threat or force that can result in injury, harm, deprivation, or even death. Why are malnourishment and hunger bad? People who are malnourished lack the nutrients required for correct health. You could be malnourished for a long or short duration, and the effects can be light and intense. Those who are malnourished are easier to get ill and, in severe cases, die. There are so many more intense problems we face that were not listed, but that does not mean they are less important than those that were written. Luckily, there are many ways to help. You can even help without having to donate to any communities or sites!
CLIMATE CHANGE: Walk, bike, or take public transport. Most vehicles burn diesel or gasoline. Walking or riding a bike instead of driving reduces gas ejection. Reduce, reuse, repair, and recycle. I bet you've done this plenty of times in elementary school, right? So that means you surely are able to do so again! It helps save our climate, buy fewer things, purchase second-hand, mend what you are able to, plus recycling.
POVERTY: Educate. Education is included in the primary solutions! Also, make sure of health care, you'll also want to provide clean water. People dealing with poverty are most likely drinking contaminated water, which can cause disease and if so severe, death.
VIOLENCE: Report ALL suspicious activity to the police at once, if you see someone carrying something illegal on them, it is best to alert someone immediately. If a police officer is close, tell them. Volunteer to help in anti-crime communities, and also encourage others to help too!
WORLD HUNGER: FOOD DONATIONS! If you have any extra food you don't need, it is recommended to donate it to an organization that helps reduce World Hunger, by giving it to those who are starving. Like Poverty, education! It helps grant a better income for food and money.
Though, if you'd prefer to donate, here are some sites:
