Tobacco - 0 views

  •  
    This has been an issue for a long time. It would tell how bad Tobacco is and how many people die from smoking or chewing tobacco.
  •  
    I feel like something someday will kill us all. We should all have personal freedom to decide to be around drugs, alcohol or tobacco. So many products now days have serious chemicals in it we probably dont even realize the air is so polluted and slowly killing us.

    I did not know how bad climate change was in Arizona, that is so sad to hear. Very eye opening, I'm glad the site discussed the repercussions that could follow. This site does a good job expressing the urgency of the change that needs to happen to fight the detrimental effects of climate change.
  •  
    This is unfortunate news for us who live in Arizona. I took a look at the site and read in further detail about how much of these things, that are in our daily lives, taken for granted. Spreading the message about this urgent issue is crucial for any type of substantial change to occur. I appreciate this site providing in depth analysis about the issue at hand. Hopefully more people will take this social issue more serious and help make a positive advancement to the cause.
  •  
    The climate costs is already a strain on Arizonans, the heat is very much devastating, and nobody wants to stay outside in the sun for too long. The website expresses the message that there needs to be something done to resist and fight back against climate change.
  •  
    The tone of the article is urgent and presents a fear in the reader by the emboldening of death tolls and seems to be biased. It does come from an organization based on environmental change, however the article does not instruct or offer resources to enact change for the better. Was the point of the article to inform readers with the intention of causing fear or was it to get the reader to look further into their organization.

Suicide Statistics | Befrienders - 2 views

  •  
    The rising suicide rates across the globe are disturbing. Over the past 45 years, the suicide rates have risen by 60%, they have nearly doubled, and are getting worse every year. As of 2016, a person commits suicide every 40 seconds, and the CDC believes that that number will rise to one every 20 seconds by 2020, a disturbing figure. The phenomenon has had little explanation as to cause, however i believe it is the fall in the number of people of faith, or religion. Over the past 50 years, more and more people have lost faith, and crime rates, and suicide rates have skyrocketed. But that is just a theory.

    The is becoming more and more of issue as the years pass. I see it with friends, co-workers, and have even dealt with it in close family. Often times it's the ones we don't even notice that actually do it, and the ones that say they're going to are the ones crying out for help. Always be aware of the people around you, and always offer help when you see someone needs it.
  •  
    It's sad to read about the growing rate of suicide and difficult to know why. Many people feel lost and insecure in this world and there can be many factors involved when someone decides to take their life away. There is also much debate about physician assisted suicide and whether or not it should be legal or how the process should be carried out.
  •  
    The statistic that 90% of suicide cases are related to a mental health disorder stands out to me. Maybe this is a field to look into?
  •  
    This is definitely interesting. Suicide can be quite complex. However, something to keep in mind is the manner in which suicide is reported. I know from my field of work that some families can choose not to report a family member's death as suicide. This is something important to note when looking at statistics.
  •  
    We all are aware and know how scary suicide can be but it is heartbreaking to know that every year the growing rate is rising. We see on the news and on social media that teens are committing suicide but we need to realize that it is not just teens, its all people. The best thing we can do for those who have thought of committing suicide is to be there and listen to them when help is needed.
  •  
    It's sad to hear about how often suicide happens. I wasn't aware of how bad it actually was. There are many different reasons people decide to take their life away. All we can really do is to try to be there for anyone who needs help and show people that you care. Sometimes it can be from the people we least expect.

CPS Failed - 3 views

  •  
    This article is just upsetting. CPS failed to remove 3 children from their caregivers home after an officer reported concern, several other reports, and signs of neglect. Unfortunately, today only one of the three siblings are alive. CPS should be accountable.

    CPS should be accountable absolutely! In my opinion CPS pursues may cases that are unjustified and neglect the more serious cases that may take a bit more work. It is appalling.
  •  
    This story is upsetting. Within the first visit from a social worker there were countless red flags indicating the house is unsafe. The children probably feared of what the guardian would do if they spoke up. I feel all three of the children were too young and traumatized to even know what was going on. CPS should have taken these children into custody immediately, two lives could have been saved. Or at least do a random check up frequently to get a better outlook on the situation.
  •  
    This article is so heartbreaking. CPS should have done something from the beginning when they first started noticing abuse. I have experience with a bad social worker before when I was fostering a child. She was suppose to come every month to check on him but wouldn't show up for months. CPS needs to find a solution to get these social workers to do there jobs to protect these children.
  •  
    is heartbreaking how a little mistake can change a lot of people's life. In this case 2 children are death. CPS need to have professional workers that know how to identify the emotions of the kids. This case show us how life is unfair with some people and how sad it can be when some people don't do their job right.

Child Labor in U.S. History - 1 views

  •  
    The history of the child labor in US. The bad side of the child labor in the early decades of the twentieth century, and the indentured servitude and child slavery. the article also shows the way people get over it, and how it was collapsed.
  •  
    Of the many mistakes and harsh realities that have existed over the course of American history, I think this is definitely one of the most saddening. From the innocent deaths in the coal mines to the risky machinery work of the rising industrial era, the well being of employed children was vastly disregarded.
