Dr0ught declared in California
The article that I read is called "drought declared in California" and well the title tells it all, but it talks about how Schwarzenegger already warned/told some residents already to cut the water use, or else they would have to face the concequences of droughts, the next year. It says that he already sighned an executive order directing to the state's response to unusually dry conditions that are damaging crops, harming water amounts and causing extreme fire danger across California. Also he derected to a water resource department to help speed water transfers on the worst affected areas, theyre also helping farmers suffering from droughts. I think that this relates to to the poor places around the globe, because its not only California who is sufferning form that issue, in many more Countries they have them, and even worse, because they die from many water issues like, infections, unsanitation, and just the need or it urgently.
how will we feed the world?
The article "How will we feed the world" is about the countries who are suffering because of food shortages. We all have food but what I think the issue is money, but not for all the countries because in some countries they do have lots of money, just that they dont have alot of feeding supplies. It talks about how hungry people from Haiti have been duing food riots saing "we're hungry"and so far 24 have died. Also they have mentioned some countries that I have heard like Egypt, , Indonesia, Bangladesh and Madagascar, and several others. The world bank has already siad that there are 33 countries that are in danger of food price inflation. What this relates to is the starving kids of Afrca, because usually when you hear the word "hunger" the first place that pops into your head is Africa.What I think is that people should be working together as a whole to make things better.
Not All Wet
In this article of water shortages many people all around the world are in need of water. Most people think that just because they are rich they can get water but not for long will that stay like that. China, Israel, and India are suffering too. They are all doing different things to help with there situation. Water means a lack of food because it takes water for food to start growing. If there is no water people will starve.

Water Shortages
I read the article Worldwide Water Shortage On Horizon. I learned that by 2025 more than half the nations in the world will have freshwater stress. By 2050 as much as 75 percent of the world's population could have freshwater scarcity. To fix the water shortage dilemma the US will need to use all water sources.

Drought declared in California
The article that I read was about the governor declaring water drought in California.He warned residents to cut down in water. He also mentioned how it's harming the crops and that it's causing fires through out California.In some parts they need it to snow so by summer they have lots of water but it's been really dry. This situation really worries me because water is extremely important.

200 different scientist from different countries said the most concerning issue with the world today is water shortage. Humans have access to 0.8% of the earths water. The demand for water within the next two decades is supposed to increase 40%. This shows their is not going to be enough water to support our needs. Water is not only a demand for people to drink but it takes 1,000 tonnes of water to create a ton of wheat. Their is simply just not enough water for our worlds needs.

pentagon: suspected mastermind of U.S Cole Bombing
The name of the article that I read is called "pentagon: suspected mastermind of U.S Cole Bombing Confesses. It's like, based on an interview that they were asking him the things that he had done, and surprisingly he said more than other ones, he confessed that he helped plan the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania by buying weapon's in 1998 that killed 213 people, Surprisingly he also confessed that he had meet Usama bin Laden that same day and that he was a link between him and Sheikh Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri on the 911 incident, well it realates to all the terrorism in general but that one only focuses on the terrorism between our enemies.
