Discussion Questions

1. Tropical and subtropical coniferous forests types of biomes exist in Haiti.

2. Tropical forests may affect the level of hardships in Haiti, because the environment doesn't supply a lot of food or agriculture with nutrition, shelter may not be as easily built or secure compared to other types of environment.

3. If Haiti did recieve 50 billion dollars in aid money, many of the problems could be solved, but i'm not exactly sure how permanent the things will be good before another earthquake or hunger.
However, there is no doubt that many things could be improved, such as health care, food and shelter, supplies.

4. Paul Farmer is much more than a foreign doctor, he's socially and emotionally engaged with the people of Haiti and politically enthused. These public positions helps him depict his message and humanitarian achievements with Haiti. His passion for helping others along with his positive attitude is generous, he is very effective.

5. I think that Paul Farmer's priorities are focused on Haiti and globally instead of locally. His role in international programs and global health community are not as effective as the role he plays in Haiti. He is already doing great things for Haiti, but he could do things as well for equal problems played out locally. I think it's alright because he's doing what he's passionate for.

6. The Nissan Leaf commercial is really cute, i do feel bad for the polar bears, but I'm unsure of why the energy efficient things costs more. We could find other alternatives to save the world.
