    As hu­mans be­ings, we need to ac­knowl­edge the dan­ger­ous and the risks of global warm­ing. To un­der­stand and de­ter­mine the rea­son for nat­ural chaos, the fluc­tu­a­tions of sea level, and the mass ex­tinc­tion of var­i­ous plants and an­i­mals on the earth due to global warm­ing.

    Every women should have the right to do what they want with their bod­ies, and not per­mit­ting abor­tions does not allow women to make de­ci­sions on their re­pro­duc­tive health, which re­sults in neg­a­tive so­cial and psy­cho­log­i­cal as­pects.

    The use of rat poi­son all over the city has been a sig­nif­i­cant threat to the well-be­ing of dogs and their own­ers due to  ac­ci­den­tal in­ges­tion. This has lead to se­vere health com­pli­ca­tions and even fa­tal­i­ties. There­fore greater reg­u­la­tions and/ or al­ter­na­tive pest con­trol strate­gies needs to be put in place to avoid the risk of harm­ing our pets.

    Topic:Lim­ited Space on CUNY Cam­puses

    In re­cent months at­tend­ing a CUNY Uni­ver­sity, I re­al­ized how pro­vid­ing so­cial spaces on col­lege cam­puses has be­come a use­ful sta­ple to stu­dents. As our stu­dent com­mu­nity con­tin­ues to grow hav­ing old and new stu­dents ar­riv­ing to cam­pus daily, the need for mul­ti­ple cafe­te­rias and lounge spaces has be­come an im­por­tant issue.

    Side­note…I’m still try­ing to find a source that backs up my the­sis since my topic is very spe­cific and broad..

    The alarm­ing fre­quency of school shoot­ings in the United States, re­sult­ing in nu­mer­ous ca­su­al­ties, un­der­scores the ur­gent need for com­pre­hen­sive gun con­trol mea­sures. Un­like many other coun­tries, the US strug­gles to ad­dress this deadly trend, prompt­ing calls for stricter reg­u­la­tions to pre­vent fur­ther tragedies and pro­tect pub­lic safety.

    Topic: Nurses de­serve more ap­pre­ci­a­tion

    I re­al­ized just how much nurses don’t re­ally re­ceive the amount of ap­pre­ci­a­tion and re­spect that they truly de­serve even though they work re­ally hard and care for the pa­tients with their whole heart. Though they do do their best to make sure every pa­tient is cared for and even dis­tract them to make them hap­pier dur­ing their stay by pro­vid­ing fun ac­tiv­i­ties, they’re not as ap­pre­ci­ated com­pared to doc­tors sim­ply be­cause they don’t have that “doc­tor” title. Not get­ting enough ap­pre­ci­a­tion could alter work per­for­mances and mo­ti­va­tion form the nurses.

    A source I plan to use is;

    So­cial media has sig­nif­i­cantly al­tered the way we com­mu­ni­cate, in­ter­act, and per­ceive the world, and while it of­fers nu­mer­ous ben­e­fits, its per­va­sive in­flu­ence raises con­cerns about pri­vacy, men­tal health, and so­ci­etal co­he­sion.

    Not many peo­ple will know much about Global Warm­ing and how it can be killing us lit­tle by lit­tle right now as we speak. The whole world may be ef­fected by Global Warm­ing. But be­fore look­ing at the whole world, New York City should be a point of in­ter­est in all of this.

    Stu­dents and col­leges alike must be aware and ready to pre­vent a case of cyber at­tacks or breach of  in­ter­net se­cu­rity. After covid most schools and col­leges around the coun­try have in­te­grated tech­nol­ogy to be more es­sen­tial to the way we go about our ed­u­ca­tion. If we are to trust a sys­tem with our as­sign­ments or sen­si­tive in­for­ma­tion we make be cer­tain that it not out­dated and made to pro­tect thou­sands of stu­dents from bad ac­tors.

    Even though this is not un­com­mon in the West,. It’s a global issue in many other places.The neg­a­tive as­pects of child mar­riages have been ig­nored and for­got­ten.Child mar­riage is a morally re­pug­nant prac­tice.
