      Break down of how poverty affects education in Kansas. this website will detail building reports that enble a person to see how many kids live below the poverty level in each school district. This also shows how many kids are receiving free or reduced lunches. In addition, it show the testing average broken down by racial demographics and the graduation rate broken down by racial demographics. Education is tied to global poverty because students and educators need to find a way to help break the cycle so that many students do not follow the poverty footsteps of thier parents or guardians.

  • With installed wind capacity growing at 30 percent over the past few years, it is an entirely realistic goal to for wind to provide 12 percent of the world's energy by 2020.  Along the way, this would create two million jobs, and save more than 10,700 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.
