WRG - Central, East, South, and Southeast Asia
In the book we used in class the nations that make up Asia were split up into four different regions; Central, East, South, and Southeast Asia. However, in the interest of time and similar environmental issues I’ve decided to refer to them all together.
One of the more prominent issues throughout this region is once again, desertification. For many years agriculture and farming has...

WRG - Russian Domain
Although much of the Russian Domain is frozen and covered in snow, there are quite a few environmental issues concerning the region. Like the rest of the world, much of the land is suspect to deforestation, specifically the Siberian region, and like the rest of the world, the resulting lumber is exported to other countries, specifically Japan an China, to meet their timber demands. Russia is...

I'll Be There For You
One aspect of life that I consider to be extremely valuable is friendship. There is nothing comparable to the relationship that people have based on such simple things. Granted many of the friends we initially make are in our kindergarten class, so we are in a sense forced to interact and become friends. But it is throughout the years that follow that you begin to weed out the ones that...

WRG - Europe
It may seem like Europe wouldn’t have very many environmental issues, but if you look close enough you can see them. A lot of it is caused by the many years of constant agriculture, industrial manufacturing, and urbanization. Although western Europe is now considered to be one of the “greenest” regions of the world because of the EU’s efforts to address environmental...

WRG - Sub-Saharan Africa
In our book Africa is not considered to be one region as itself. Instead it is split into two regions, the first being Sub-Saharan Africa, which includes all but Western Sahara, Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt becuase of thier closer cultural ties to countries in Southwest Asia. Most of the more northern countries, such as Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, and Sudan are covered largely by the...
