September 2008: September 21 is celebrated around the world as "Peace Day." The United Nations' International Day of Peace is a global holiday when individuals, communities, nations and governments highlight efforts to end conflict and promote peace. Established by U.N. resolution in 1982, Peace Day has grown to include millions of people around the world who participate in all kinds of events, large and small.
Scan the e-edition of The News-Journal to find articles about three nations or regions that are at war. After reading each article, choose one and write a paragraph showing how the conflict in that nation or region might be resolved peacefully. (SS.A.1.2.1)

HOT ISSUES and COOL IDEAS

Oceans of trouble?
Did you know that over two-thirds of our Earth is covered by ocean? These salty seas supply food, wildlife habitat and natural resources such as oil underneath the ocean floor. Oceans also create weather systems that give us rain and they provide opportunities for transportation, commerce and recreation. Oceans, especially the Atlantic and Pacific, are really huge! It's hard to remember that before the days of air travel, ocean crossings could take many, many months.
