VACCINATE YA DANG KIDS GOSH DARN IT

The measles outbreak has spread to 20 U.S. states so far, affecting over 555 people across the country in 2019 alone. It's almost double the amount of measles reported in all of 2018. This year has just about hit the record amount of Measles outbreaks since "eliminating" the disease in 2000. The measles are spreading more vastly in areas where it is normalized or easily able to skip the vaccination of children. The measles are very dangerous and can lead to severe pneumonia, a paused immune system, or swelling in the brain, which can lead to deafness or other "disabilities." One person with the measles can infect up to eighteen unvaccinated people with the disease. To lessen the severity of the outbreak in the United States, more and more people would need to get vaccinated, which many families are not willing to do. This means, scientists and doctors are still not sure if the disease will be controlled.

Personally, I think it is absurd how parents can think not vaccinating their children is OK. Years ago, when is was believed vaccinations caused Autism, parents were fearful of their children. However, that turned out to be false. Even if that statement were true, though, I don't know why parents would rather have a child who can die of illness or be majorly diseased their whole life than have a child with autism. It blows my mind how irresponsible people can be.

    I think that all schools should require kids to be vaccinated unless they have a medical excuse.

    It's crazy how public hysteria over false claims is leading parents to put their children in danger by not vaccinating them.

    This is sad. People need to vaccinate their kids, whether or not they believe in it. I get that vaccines aren't always affordable, but is letting your child die worth not giving them a vaccine?

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
