Please go to Omar's blog (on the right) and take his poll.

Lauren says: "smile and be happy" I will take her advice!

On that note: Friday's discussion was interesting. After mulling it over I came to the conclusion that one person can make a difference and that one person could be you. Yes, wars have been fought over resources and we need to be mindful of how and what we use. But we shouldn't lose hope. Everyday, people make a difference by conserving in their own way, fighting polluters, teaching others, and truly making a difference.

Example: Erin Brockovich, a legal clerk that found out that PG&E was contaminating a local water source, sued them, and won. The win caused PG&E to clean up their act. One person, all by herself, make a difference.
Post Options
I encourage you start answering the questions we asked in our discussion:

• Will our resources run out (oil, water, & food)?
• What can we do about it?
• What are some good websites that keep us informed?
• What can we start doing in Dakar?
• Can we do something as a class?

Have a good three day weekend and I look forward to hearing form all of you
