    By 2100, it will once again have taken approximately 100 years for the population to double to a predicted 10.8 billion. While data is collected on population growth, it is difficult for even sustainability professionals to understand what will happen globally when the world's population reaches 10 or 15 billion people.

    People can develop and join new communities via the Internet, which removes geographical boundaries to making connections. Younger Internet users, as well as those in developing nations, are particularly hopeful about the Internet's future and their capacity to use it to improve their lives and shape their futures. Nonetheless, many in our society are concerned that the future may bring significant change.

    Excellent article, not because of the freedom we need but also because we like an inch from losing our space, so it feels. Now, that women in texas don't have the rights to their bodies.

    NBC News talks about the increase of gun violence in the U.S that has been growing since April of 2020, and has yet to see a decline. It also dives into discussion on gun control, purchasing of fire arms and even the horrible events that had transpired from gun violence in the U.S.

    There are many major problems within our healthcare system. For instance, there is a huge shortage of healthcare workers. We need healthcare workers in order for hospitals to run smoothly. Not only is there a shortage of workers, there is an opioid crisis as well. Many things need to be done in order to fix the healthcare system.
  • lizznicole on 07 Sep 21
     
    The healthcare system is a mess right now. A lot of healthcare workers were called heroes in the beginning of covid and now they're being fired because they don't feel comfortable getting the vaccine. The shortage is from them getting fired. I actually lost my best friend to an accidental overdose.

    Americans spend almost twice as much on health care then the average for the 10 most high earning nations despite having the highest rate of mortality and suicide. There are people who would just as soon try and deal with a broken bone on their own then risk thousands and thousands of dollars worth of medical bills.
