Climate Change: The Penguin Dance Battle

# data[].attributes.body
Climate change is  currently big problem, especially with our industries getting bigger and bigger. It has effected countless countries, Africa being the most vulnerable, it has caused our water level to rise because of icebergs melting, it has caused so many animals to be extinct, so many animals to lose their homes/habitats. And it is all because of us, our selfish actions, our greediness to have more and more has caused the world, the earth, our home to slowly deteriorate. Our current generation has already suffered enough from the previous generation, it's about time we start thinking about our children. So much proof that our planet is dying and yet we still remain ignorant.

Climate change is currently one of the biggest worry of our generation, Gen Z.
That is why the WWF, World Wild Fund, has created a challenge called the Penguin Dance Battle to raise awareness that the polar region are in threat of climate change and global warming. To sustain the Adelie Penguin's icy habitat.

nowadays, many women when taking their selfie, they will use beautiful filter or wear makeup to cover their ugly or real face. even man do that. In March 2014, Laura Lippman tweeted a picture of herself without makeup in support of actress Kim Novak, who was criticized after she attended the Oscars without makeup. more women joined in by posting their own no-makeup selfies. but after a weeks later, 18-years-old girl attach the trend to cancer research. then she created a Facebook page called “No Make Up Selfie For Cancer Awareness”. The campaign was particularly easy to join, as it was predicated on not making yourself presentable for social media. within 24 hours, people had raised 1 million pound for the organization.

This is how it started. Two friends started the nonprofit in Australia to spread awareness about men's health issues like prostate, cancer, 🤬 cancer and mental health.  They had a fun simple idea, Invite men to grow their moustaches all month in November. They managed to get 30 people on board in the first year. The next year, they had built a community of 480 people and raised $40,851 to fund men's health projects. By the end of 2010 they had more than 1 million participants getting $157 million since their founding. Each year, men continue to show this campaign by sharing their photos or video on social media

Assalamualaikum everyone, Everyone knows the racism thing going on right?

Right now, i'm going to talk about it in order to raise awareness of it. Majority of us would think racism is not a big deal and you know what, they are wrong. Racism started at 1930s. The word was used to describe the social and political ideology of Nazism. Racism is very bad that it can affect someone's life that can lead them to suicide. Here's some facts about racism; Did you know that young black people are more than twice as likely to be unemployed compared to young white people in the UK? Did you know that the police stop and search black people at seven times the rate of white people? Did you know that almost half of all Bangladeshi and Pakistani workers in the UK earn less than £7 an hour? This is very unfair for the black people. That is why we need stop this racism by raising awareness of it and sharing it in social medias etc.

Hi everyone! Have you ever heard of the Ice Bucket Challenge?

Hi everyone! Have you ever heard of the Ice Bucket Challenge?

# data[].attributes.body
You might have seen videos of people pouring buckets of ice on themselves some years ago and thought they were funny and interesting. But did you know, they were doing it for a purpose? They did it in order to raise money for charity and to increase awareness of ALS - Amyothropic Lateral Sclerosis, (or MND - Motor Neuron Disease) which is the degenerative disease that afflicts Professor Stephen Hawking.

Here are some things you should know about the challenge:

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Ice Bucket Challenge is a campaign to promote awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) - also known as Lou Gehrig's disease - and encourage donations for research. A person is filmed as a bucket of water and ice is dumped over the individual's head. The individual then nominates a minimum of three people to do the same thing, having only a 24-hour time frame to complete the challenge and make a donation to the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association.

It went viral in July and August 2014, using social media as a platform to reach a worldwide audience. More than 17 million people posted videos online, including Bill Gates and former president George W. Bush. Over a two-year period, the money raised through the challenge helped fund research and development of treatment drugs.

The origin of the campaign has been attributed to Pete Frates, a Boston College alumnus who was diagnosed with ALS in March 2012.
How much money was raised?
The Ice Bucket Challenge raised more than $115 million for the ALS Association. A chart from the ALS Association shows that $77 million, or 67%, of the funds were designated to research and another $23 million, or 20%, were given to patient and community services.
How many people participated?
More than 17 million people participated in the challenge worldwide. In the U.S., there were 2.5 million participants who donated $115 million to the ALS Association.
Why was the Ice Bucket challenge so popular?
The challenge first received media attention after professional golfer Greg Norman nominated news anchor Matt Lauer in July 2014 on NBC's Today. This sparked a trend that led millions of people to post videos on social media to raise awareness of ALS.
What is ALS?
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. It is known to cause stiffness of muscles, muscle twitching and muscle weakness, which result in difficulty speaking, swallowing and eventually breathing. The cause of this disease is unknown, but in some cases genetics may be involved. A cure for ALS has not been discovered yet.
