Hunger Stoped

                Many people are starving due to the fact that food is scarce in some places. But fear is not lost, people realize that hunger is an issue and there are people who do step up to the challenge. We have an example of John Hartom who has touched peoples hearts everywhere. This dedicated potter makes bowls for people and families who suffer of hunger. He also cooks food for all these people. There are other organizations helping, for example Oxfam and Feed the Children. Show you care and help these organizations with its task at hand. By Ismael R

Tripoli Zoo animals suffer, lacking food, water
By sarah gray 

In the tripoli zoo animals have no water just because a war is going on.
Although the whole entire staff was trying to help the staff couldn't do much. All of the animals do not have food and water and are skinny enough to see their bones.
 The hippos do not have any clean water and ae suffering because they aren't able to swim.  My personal opinion is that people can maybe donate water and get some vets for the animals to make sure they are not really sick.
 The places that were nice t help were  IFAW, World Vets, and WSPA. They are donating money and they are giving supplies to help animals.

Hunger is a problem

By Aspen J.

       There is hunger all over the world!  People around the world are not getting fed.  Also people are not getting enough nutrition.  It is happening because you can't get a job , the economy goes down or you get fired,  and you have no money for food.  In Africa there are to many people for the amount of food that they can produce.  Some people have formed groups to help the hungry such as; OWEE, Empty boles, Africa Needs You Foundation, Free rice, Oxfam, and ect.  They donate food to the poor or to the hungry.  

HUNGRY KIDS

     How can we do anything to help the people in the hunger that are starving because they cant help any piece of food. This is happening all over the world even in america were people get plenty of food and it is shocking thing that is going on. Even now it has gone to other states and started people starving even now people are jut hoping that they can get a piece of bread or a cracker. If only the people would let them get a job maybe they could get some food for there family. The only organizations that is helping me get ths information is the CNN organization.  Ross.B

World Hunger

WORLD HUNGER takes place all over the world. Many of the people that are part of this are the people that struggle with money for food. Numerous people in almost every country struggle to survive from hunger. Something that is weird about it is that the world produces enough food to feed the population.The Empty Bowls Project, the brainchild of artists John Hartom and Lisa Blackburn, uses ceramic arts to fight hunger. The organizations that are helping support these people are the Oxfam and the Feed the Children program. These people are trying to fight hunger of people and families in the world.

Saving The Animals At Tripoli Zoo

                                    By Jorge E.
               
            Tripoli, Libya  At the Tripoli Zoo there are are alot of animals in starvation. Nic Roberston reported that only 10 zoo keepers come here everyday when there's really suppost to be 200 workers there. CNN reports that most of the animals are extremely skinny and don't have water or food. One zoo keepers said that the animals haven't had food or water in 7 days. The cause of this is the battle going outside of the zoo. There are organizations helping these animals like The Global Animal Foundation giving them food and water. I say to solve this problem the animals should be transported to a near by zoo and wait until the war is done and later be transported back.

Famine In East Africa

FAMINE IN EAST AFRICA

In East Africa people are trying to survive of starvation. These has become a huge issue that the president Borock Obama of the united states has gotten involved and so has Hillary Clinton and the secretaries of the U.N. The problem is people are living in famine in East Africa and suffering is going to spread due to poor harvests and infectious disease outbreaks. The famine started a Wednesday 2011, so its current. The cause of this super huge famine, is because rich governments are guilty of willful neglect. As the aid effort to avert catastrophe and East Africa limps $800million shortfall. As many donors are helping we can donate food and maybe go help out in Africa and help feed people. Together we can make a difference and help out just like the organizations helping. Which are ox fams and U.N. children’s fund. The organizations are taking food to them and giving them care.The link you can go to help is  childcareworldwide.org

• (ZOO ANIMAL NEWS) LIBYA — Soon after the Tripoli zoo was abandoned in late August, the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) went to Libya to begin relief efforts. Their efforts were aided by the $6,000 donation from Global Animal Foundation. According to IFAW Communications Officer Mike Booth, “Since IFAW and other groups intervened, the relief efforts have guaranteed that the animals received the care, food, and water they needed for the past two months.”A team of animal-welfare experts from Austria's Four Paws International gently rolls the tiger over and Dr. Amir Khalil, dripping sweat, searches for a vein, then puts in an IV drip to give the animal vitaminsAsked why the tiger is so sick, the veterinarian replies, "Honestly, we don't know but I believe he's old, 21 years. That's number one. Number two, it was a lot of stress in the surroundings here."

During the struggle for Tripoli, gunfire raged just outside the zoo. When the fighting was at its height some Libyans packed up their cars and fled. The animals at the Tripoli Zoo didn't have that option. The deafening sounds of shooting, the acrid smell of battle -- there was no respite for these sensitive creatures

What can be done now is that we can try to help stop hunger by donating food. There are about 200 food banks that are helping stop this conflict.Celebrities are volunteering in food banks, and they try to make sure that they have enough resources to help the people who can't afford to buy their own food or because they don't have resources. Other people can help stop hunger by helping out in food activities like raising funds or helping out in a can food drive.

starving animals in Libya

This is a sad day in Libya when the tigers are not being fed. The zoo helpers have said that the zoo is closed when CNN reporter hears roars from a tiger off in the distance.The tigers have not been fed because there is gunfire off in the distance while the zoo keepers are fighting there way in. As the CNN reporter sees the animals he finds dead tortoises. These poor helpless animal need your help because four paws and “IFAW” are providing water and food for these helpless animals. All of these animals cannot eat because of the war not letting the zoo help get  through.

Preventing World Hunger

    World hunger is a very real problem in many countries around the world. It is happening now even though the world produces enough food to feed every human being. People, especially children go hungry when they or their family can't make enough money to buy food for their family. People and organizations around the world are trying to help these poor people by getting them food. An organization called The Empty Bowls Project holds events where pottery is donated by local artists and the visitors get the bowl their food was served in as a way to get people to be aware of world hunger. Other organizations that help are food banks that take in food and distribute it to the hungry people. Anything we can do to help, like donating canned food and offering our labor, will be appreciated by all the people who suffer.

Save the Animals at Tripoli Zoo

        During the war in Tripoli, a zoo was left alone, the animals were left to survive on their own. The animals were left for 7 days with no food and hardly any water. When a zookeeper returned it was almost to late for many of the zoo animals. Soon 10 of the 200 person staff returned during the war to help the animals. A group of experts from the Austria Four Paws International Zoos came to help the animals. By the time they came it was already to late for one of the tigers. Due to the war the animals only got half of the food they needed and hardly got any water because of the hot weather.

                                 

 
After a few weeks of suffering the animals got many people to send funds for food and medicine:

• The World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA)
• the American Zoo Association
• the North Carolina Zoo
• the International Fund for Animal Welfare
• the Humane Society International
• IFAW

If more people can send funds and volunteer to help we can restore the zoo and make it like it was before. Do you want these animals to suffer anymore?

the zoo epidemic

               Animals are dying because of the Tripoli zoo was neglecting its animals due to the war. All of the animals are having to wait to have any food at all they are also not getting any clean water. Some of the animals are already starting to die from starvation. There are some organizations like IFAW and National Animal Association the associations are sending money but we don't know if its enough to feed them all. But at least it's a start for them and the animals are probably happier then they ever been.      By Ryan k
