This article talks about how much money the economy would save if they began to use Off Shore wind to meet power demand instead of relying on gas. I think that this is a great idea because our country needs to do anything it can to ttry and get out of dead or not dif themselves any deeper in debt. I am a firm believer that f we have natural resources we should take advantage of them.

The article states that there is currently a negotiation going on debating on whether or not the debt ceiling should be raised for the United States. I do not think that the debt ceiling should be raised because our country does not need anymore debt and we need to start finding ways to get out of debt instead of just bendning the rules. I do not think the Fiscal Cliff should be out into action either because I believe the middle classes should be aloud a tax break.

This article is about a food shortage around the world caused by global warming and enviormental probelms. Because the Earths Ozone is slowly being destroyed, the heat from the sun will cause severe drought. This means that the vegatables, fruits, and grains grown around the round will have and interrupted growth cycle and may not grow at all. In the article it says that the harvest of rice and maize will decrease from 20 to 30 percent. Some shortages may be expected and are just part of the cycle of the market. But unless we find alternatives to the things that are destroying our ozones, i dont think that our world can recover too well from this when it happens. This relates to economics to economics because we talks about shortages in our class. I believe this will be more of a scarcity than a shortage though, because we cant just repare our ozone layer overnight.
