It’s not easy to base decisions, actions, communications or even recommendations on science since the science is often lacking and often changing. With influenza, it’s a rapid and dynamic environment in which we are working, and sometimes I think we don’t fully appreciate how dynamic it really is.

Being from Savannah GA hurricanes are a real threat to out community. There are numerous thing that could occur from this from flooding to disease.

It was in response to this realization that a group of monetary activists in Cape Town, South Africa, decided in 2002 to investigate the field of alternative exchange systems (otherwise knows as complementary currencies, social currencies, local currencies etc.) with a view to setting up an experimental local exchange trading system (LETS) in Cape Town. LETS as an alternative paradigm in monetary thinking started in Canada in the 1980s and quickly spread around the world, becoming popular in…

I would challenge people to not use their faucets for two days and try to find water sources. Even though we have water all around us it may be salt water or unclean and they would have to purify their own water, I think that it would bring peoples attention to the fact that water may be plentiful, but not drinkable.

i think that how people react in a pandemic is most important because if we learn how people react in a situation like this we can solve that, we can control the crowds when a pandemic happens. we can set up drills and prepare people but not before we test them to see how they react.

Whenever a crisis or pandemic is made public, Peter Sandman says "people tend to overreact" [out of fear]. They are fearful for not only their selves and their family, but also their friends and the people close to them. In some cases people are not necessarily fearful for family's survival but fearful that they have been or will be infected due to contact with family or close friends.

The story I choose to read is the one called "Stand up for Malala-Girls' Education is a right. It is about a young girl in Pakistan who was attacked by members of the Taliban because she was trying to get an education. The Taliban believe that girls and women should not be educated and confined at home. Malala wants an education because she sees it as a way to better herself. She is being restricted by the Taliban from achieving her life goals. Girls are less likely than boys to finish…

I believe in the future my community will be faced with water shortages. There are many different ways to broadcast the problems with water shortages. It can be done through television, radio, social networking sites, and through billboards. The message that will be communicated to the people of my community will be to preserve their water and do not use it for useless things like watering their lawn. Water is important for the survival of all humans and it can not be wasted on useless…
