Global Food Shortage; A Serious Threat? | Healthmad - 0 views

  • With the global population bursting at the seams, the scarcity of rich land to grow food, and more demanding diets, food supplies are diminishing at an alarming rate.
  • The global population, which currently stands at 6.8 billion, is expected to reach 9 billion within the next 40 years. This is a lot of mouths to feed, especially in areas where population growth will be the highest; mainly Africa and India, which are already facing not only food shortages, but severe water shortages as well.

    I just think this site is really funny. Do you think this is an appropriate form of communication in this digital day and age? Would this help you to connect with others or hinder you?

  • You Can Do It Too!
  • It’s a gray, drizzly Saturday morning, but the children of the Danbury Connecticut Ward aren’t in their pajamas watching cartoons or playing video games. They’re busy making videos of their own. And their videos will help thousands of people learn about the Book of Mormon! It all started when their bishop had a great idea.

Each group will be making an animated video of a different Book of Mormon story:
