By Megan Seyler Imagine if the American Heart Association flat-out refused to address unhealthy diets as a leading cause of Heart Disease. Even worse, imagine that its employees partake in eating an unhealthy diet despite having full knowledge of its repercussions. Sounds absurd, right? Yet this is precisely what is happening all across the planet, where leading environmental agencies and non-profit organizations are turning a blind eye to nearly all of the environment’s leading forms of destruction: animal agriculture. The meat and dairy industry has a momentous effect on land occupation, pollution, water usage, material usage, and greenhouse gas emissions, and yet somehow it is largely ignored both by environmentals and society as a whole. It is the ultimate elephant in the room, or rather, the planet, and if it is not addressed soon, the impact will be catastrophic.

By Erin Endres In recent years social media and the internet has become wildly popular. The internet has changed from a luxury into a daily necessity. There are so many jobs based solely off of these media outlets - jobs of which are being filled by the younger generation who has become more tech-savvy than their parents. However, these jobs are expanding from just having advertisements on social media sites to many people having their social media sites and accounts as their own jobs and sources of income. YouTube videos, blogs, and instagram accounts and other social media accounts have turned into jobs and businesses for many young adults these days. Many young teenagers have made themselves famous all because of the internet and social media. Countless amounts of teens have dropped out of school and put all of their efforts into maintaining their high status on their sites. |
