Why bother?

4.)Reflect 
What is the problem? 
The overall premise of the proposal; “Why Bother?” by Michael Pollan shows how limited thinking can cause limited outcomes. Why wallowing around in a 'why bother' attitude gets us in these types of worldly problems in the first place. When action and opportunity are knocking on the door just waiting to be opened. 
What should be done?
We should fix the world rather than wait for its dismiss. Just because other people have a limited outlook on the bigger problem humanity faces doesn’t mean you should follow along. For instance, Pollan states that you should plant a garden! It will not only benefit you and your neighbor it will also help the earth Co2 emissions low; keeping the planet a healthier place to live. 
Bullying
According to Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development bullying can lead to physical harm, social anxiety, and emotion turmoil, and even suicide. Not only that but the bullies are susceptible to depression as well. The NICHD labs have also concluded that cyberbullying poses a greater chance of depression than traditional styles of bullying. One strong way to end bullying is to stop it in its tracks by standing up for others. Not talking to another adult can make things worse in the long run. Also, have affection for those around the simplest 'hello' can change anybody's day!
