I have chosen to follow Becky Striepe who is trying to get using cloth napkins back into style to save the trees and keep our planet green. I started to shadow her on http://greenupgrader.com/author/becky/ and from there I have become a fan of her work on facebook on how to stay green at the kitchen table as well as other places in your house. Also I follow her on twitter with… Continue

In my home, the state of New York, rather in the city we've had problems with the outbreak of swine flu. If I could partner with Ushahidi, then I could monitor this illness more closely so that New York could easily get a cure for this and this issue will never happen again. I could watch the news in the morning and after school, and I could read the newspaper daily, and I can look it up online. Then I could organize this information so I can be able to read it like a story that… Continue

I discovered that if the microwaves didn't need radioactive waves then they can be powered with recyclable batteries that can be recycled to make the planet greener. On top of that, it saves electricity that can be used for those that need to power more important. Things like lamps and night lights, lavalamps, and portable fans can be powered by batteries you can recycle.

I chose this secret "Create “transparent” technologies, ones that are easily understood by the users, and promote local innovation." I like it because it was very easy to understand and this is a go green type of secret plus because you are the only one that can figure out your device there will never be a reason you to throw it out, keeping the planet greener.

I'm learning more about violence against women right now, and in particular what I'm wondering is: "Are the situations where women are harmed being recognized and put to a stop?". I was researching this question online and this article caught my eye because the title was "tackling gender-based violence" so I figured it had a lot to do with ending violence against women.

the chance to have her case be investigated – and perpetrators…

I have been to HIV/AIDS centers all over the New York City area, and so far they all have said the same thing. They all say that they need more money for research so as of now I am raising awareness of this disease because it seems that people have forgotten. Then I figure maybe people may want to donate enough money to figure this disease out. Nurses and doctors assure their patients that everything will be ok, but they cannot be certain that medicine will continue to keep them alive long…

It is a beautiful day outside I am in
New York, my desk phone keeps ringing for arrangements. It seems as if
I am the editor of a very popular newspaper. Many people come into my
office in the next fifteen minutes. I'm guessing this means my deadline
is coming really close. After a while, my secretary calls in that
someone is on line 2 for me. I thought to myself "Is this the call that… Continue
