WARNING ... Is the Internal Combustion Engine Polluting Our Air?
WARNING … Is the Internal Combustion Engine polluting our air? As a Technician that has been in the trade for many years, I know my engines. And this subject is quite concerning considering some industries are bragging, instead of an alternative going green replacement to that style of engine. They're going the same but bigger, and bigger is not better and this is my thinking.

Maybe you’ve never noticed this but racists don’t think they are racists. They think they are protecting and guarding their culture against everyone who they view as a threat to their institutions and traditions. They see themselves as the victims, and the Blacks, Muslims, Mexicans, Chinese, Jews, immigrants, Russians and aliens are plotting to overthrow society and destroy them.

Just as Martin Bashir's interview with Diana, the princess of wales in 1995, cast Prince of Wales in a wholly negative light regarding his extramarital affairs and his emotional absence, Oprah Winfrey's interview with the Sussexes is threatening to rock the centuries-old institution of the monarchy to its very core.
Adebayo AdeniranPublished 3 years ago in The SwampA Closer Look at the Homeless
The issue of homelessness in America has disturbed me for a very long time. I was not raised to become homeless, yet it happened to me anyway. I was shocked and scared each time. When you get evicted from your home, it feels like you're a chicken with your head cut off and you're running around with your last breathe of life trying to figure out if there is a way for you to survive. It's truly horrible. Not all, but most homeless people suffer from drug addiction or mental illness or both. There are a few who simply got in trouble with the law and can not achieve employment because of that. Whatever the reason, the problem of homelessness in America is still occurring and it still disturbs me.

Even before this pandemic hit, there were numerous struggling Americans. When the virus swept through the nation and closed down most states, it became even more difficult. Many people lost their jobs; others have dealt with losses in their families. It has become a heydey for strife and chaos. This comes after and exasperates a growing period of unrest in this nation.

Muhammad AliPublished 3 years ago in The SwampHomelessness in Los Angeles
I have recently come across a YouTuber called German in Venice. In many of his videos, he highlights social issues in Los Angeles, especially homelessness. I was aware of the number of people living on the streets in Los Angeles, after visiting here back in 2012. However, I was shocked to see how some of the more popular areas have people living in tents by the side of the road. However, since I visited in 2012, the amount of people that are living in camps, hostels and cars in the Los Angeles area has got significantly worse.

I have always considered myself a fairly liberal person. Politically, I lean towards the left, believe in the importance of social equality, and - although I am not ignorant of the economic costs involved - I do think that being able to access education, healthcare, and legal support are basic human rights.
Christopher DonovanPublished 3 years ago in The SwampUrban life & rural life
As of today, there are about four point four billion people living in urban areas around the world or around fifty-six percent of the world population. More than ever before, there are more people living in cities. and not only is this the case, but this figure is likely to increase in the future. there are estimate that the amount of people living in urban areas will increase to six billion people by 2050 which will be sixty eight percent of the world population. which means that while the number of people living in urban cities is expected to increase to over two billion people, the number of people living in rural areas is expected to decrease to about two hundred million people. But why are so many people living in cities? and why is this figure only expected to increase in the future?

Journal Entry, March 2, 2021 I entered a poetry competition for black history month; it was a national contest that paid $20,000. You could only imagine what that would do for a struggling poet. Especially since we're living in a Dead Poets Society, our only poets are now false prophets in the pursuit of profit. Poets used to be the sounding board of our reality, a voice for the oppressed. Life was poetry in motion.
