It is nothing new to us to hear something said about global warming and the issue of climate change. But do we really take to heart all of the information we receive on the subject?
In today's world it is an ever growing and always pressing issue about our current environmental situations and how they are steadily declining in quality, yet we don't always do our part to "go green" and help sustain the earth for future generations. While I don't necessarily view myself as a "hippie" or flower child or any other term that is applied by those who don't understand the significance of the matter, I do see myself as an activist in my own home and homes of those I am close with.
Joe Biden says that climate change is "the most consequential issue of our time". He is absolutely right because if we don't take care of the earth now, in our time, it won't survive long enough to support those who will be here after us. If anyone makes it that far.
So tell me what you think about global warming. Do you believe it is all a hoax and nothing to worry about? Or is it the most consequential issue of our time and deserves our attention and action taken by those in office in order to make our world a better place?

Time to enforce gun control laws?
If you haven't heard or read anything about the recent campus shooting in Oregon, then I suggest you lift up the rock you're living under and acknowledge the severity of the growing issue with gun control.
It seems as though each time I turn on the news I get to see some heartbreaking tragedy where numerous lives were lost, impacted, or both, due to an event where a shooting took place. These happenings should SCARE people, not motivate people to be the next person who strives for some claim to fame by killing others. When students and individuals of all ages alike begin to feel scared just to go to places they feel safe such as school, church, or even the grocery store, that's when you know we have a problem.
In the article below, candidate Ben Carson address the issue of gun control and posted an image of him holding a sign saying "I am a Christian" which went viral the same day. His stance on the issue of gun rights and regulations is one that I am sure most of us can agree with.
Do you agree that individuals should be allowed to carry their own concealed weapons either for their own protection or the protection of others when/if these situations continue to arise? Or do you disagree and feel like allowing more people to carry weapons will only result in more unnecessary shootings and bloodshed?
