Gobal Issues and Concern
Issue
Lack of Education
More than 72 million children throughout
the globe that are of the age to be in
primary education are not enrolled in
school. This can be attributed to
inequality and marginalization as well as
poverty. Fortunately, there are many
organizations that work directly with the
issue of education in providing the
proper tools and resources to aid
schools.
Pollution Pur
Pollution is one of the most difficult 
global issues to combat, as the umbrella
term refers to ocean litter, pesticides and 
fertilizers, air, light and noise pollution.
Clean water is essential for humans and
animals, but more than one 
billion people don’t have access to clean
water due to pollution from toxic
substances, sewage or industrial waste. 
It is of the utmost importance that people
all over the world begin working to
minimize the various types of pollution,
in order to better the health of the planet
and all those living on it.
Climate Change
The global temperatures are rising, and 
are estimated to increase from 2.6 
degrees Celsius to 4.8 degrees Celsius 
by 2100. This would cause more severe
weather, crises with food and resources 
and the spread of diseases. The
reduction of greenhouse emissions and
the spreading of education on the
importance of going green can help
make a big difference. Lobbying
governments and discussing policies to
reduce carbon emissions and
encouraging reforestation is an effective
way of making progress with climate
Solution of School
Reduce the Cost of Education
Several African countries have abolished
their school fees. Each time, the move
has triggered a large increase in primary
school enrollment. For
example, enrollment increased by 12
percent in Ghana, 18 percent in Kenya,
23 percent in Ethiopia and 51 percent in
Malawi after the abolition of school fees.
Purchase less toxic cleaning
supplies.
Use energy-efficient fluorescent
lights and properly recycle them
when they are spent.

program at school to encourage
biking, walking, or carpooling.  sustainability and food security.

Violence
Violence can be found in the social, cultural
and economic aspects of the world.
Whether it is conflict that has broken out in
a city, hatred targeted at a certain group of
people or sexual harassment occurring on
the street, violence is a preventable problem
that has been an issue for longer than
necessary. With continued work on behalf of
the governments of all nations, as well as
the individual citizens, the issue can be
addressed and reduced.
Malnourishment & Hunger
Currently there are 795 million people who
do not have enough to eat. Long-term
success to ending world hunger starts with
ending poverty. With fighting poverty
through proper training for employment,
education and the teaching of cooking and
gardening skills, people who are suffering
will be more likely to get jobs, earn enough
money to buy food and even learn how to
make their own food to save money.
Children need clearly defined rules and
limits set for them so that they know what
is expected of them and the
consequences for not complying. When
setting family rules and limits, be sure
children understand the purpose behind
the rules and be consistent in enforcing
them.
Discipline is more effective if children
have been involved in establishing the
rules and, oftentimes, in deciding the
consequences. Remember to be fair and
flexible—as your children grow older, they
become ready for expanded rights and
changes in rules and limits. Show your
children through your actions how to
adhere to rules and regulations, be
responsible, have empathy toward others,
control anger, and manage stress.
 School gardens are a learning
platform to promote better nutrition,
develop life skills and increase
environmental awareness. Growing
and preparing garden food at school,
combined with nutrition education,
increases children’s preferences for
fruits and vegetables.
 Schools can establish and enforce
school policies and practices – for
example rules about handwashing –
that can improve health and nutrition
  Healthy meals and snacks in
schools improves children’s health
and nutritional well-being, enabling
them to grow well and learn well.
When combined with nutrition
education, school food can directly
improve student’s health and
nutrition while helping them develop
good eating habits.

agricultural practices: improving the
livelihoods and capacities of small scale
