Liquid Candy - 0 views

  •  
    In 1998 the individual soda intake was at its highest, averaging a surprising 56.1 gallons. Six years later in 2004, carbonated soft drinks had a 7 percent decline in individual consumption. In addition, replacing regular soda with diet soda helped decrease the intake of caloric beverages an impressive 12 percent. Health problems like obesity and being overweight result from the lack of nutrients in these beverages. The widespread issues are due to high rise consumption rates of these carbonated soft drinks. Liquid candy is statistically proven to be a prime factor for excessive weight increase. A problem for our population following the increase is the Type 2 diabetes. These health issues can lead to long term illnesses and sometimes life threatening diseases such as heart attacks, strokes and cancer.

Abortion in the United States - 0 views

  •  
    Website has the number of abortions per year from 1973 up to 2006. The site uses two sources for these numbers and provides links to the information from the sources. On the same page, there is a link to a pdf file with more information. This website could be used to argue why abortion should be illegal since it's biased towards that.

Teen Suicide - 1 views

  •  
    I find it very sad that suicide is the third-leading cause of death for teens and young adults. This article is very clear on what signs to watch for, how to address the person if you do see signs and how to get them help. I feel that after reading this article I will feel more comfortable speaking up in a situation if needed. I hope you guys read this and share it with friends and family.

    D'Arcy Lyness, PhD is the editing body of this article. These are the types of sources you want to use in a paper surely! http://kidshealth.org/media/khexperts/lyness.html This is a link to her accomplishments in field. I believe she is very qualified and this article is highly reputable. However I would like to see some statistics that support some of the claims in the article. I spent about 10 minutes reviewing the information in this article and have found some conflicting information(s). https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/suicide-datasheet-a.pdf Above is a snap-sheet posted by the CDC summarizing suicide in 2015. The article I am responding to is dated August 15th. In both places the leading cause factor is different. The CDC claims that in ages 15-34 that suicide is the second largest contributing factor to teenage death. The internet is sleezy. I don't know what to believe anymore.

    This is a great article that goes into depth about what causes suicide, what to look out for, etc. Some parents are kind of in the dark about this type of stuff, so it's awesome that such a source exists for parents before it is too late. It makes me sad that it is the third-leading cause of death. A permanent solution to a temporary problem..
  •  
    I agree 101% how terrible it is that this is the third leading cause of death. Life should not be about spending your time planning on how it will end. I am now happy though that I have the right tools to know how to deal with this type of social justice.

myths about tax - 0 views

  •  
    There is no evidence scientifically that tax will solve obesity. solution is not education alone. No evidence that soda is the cause, sales of soda are down but sugar drinks are still high Calories are not the issue. soda adds too much sugar and has no nutritional value. Beverage industry needs to be part of solution
