    "GIGI IBRAHIM: The whole movement is being undermined right now by people and by ignorance and by lack of political life in Egypt.

    • pinky winky
       
      yes, it is very good.
  • March 9 Eleven people died in overnight fighting between Christians and Muslims in the suburbs of Cairo, in the deadliest unrest since the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak, which was striking for the solidarity between people of different backgrounds. The clashes broke out during a protest by several hundred Christians over the burning of a church in the village of Soul a week earlier, and raged into the early hours of the morning, adding to a sense of unease as the country charts a post-Mubarak future.

Global Warming - 0 views

    • Teja Huggins
       
      Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises).  It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth's atmosphere, which increases the temperature.  This hurts many people, animals, and plants.  Many cannot take the change, so they die.

Global Warming Solutions, Stop Global Warming - National Geographic - 0 views

  • Is this possible?Many people and governments are already working hard to cut greenhouse gases, and everyone can help.
  • In addition to reducing the gases we emit to the atmosphere, we can also increase the amount of gases we take out of the atmosphere.  Plants and trees absorb CO2 as they grow, "sequestering" carbon naturally.  Increasing forestlands and making changes to the way we farm could increase the amount of carbon we're storing.
