Competition for Resources in a Global Society
(paragraph 3) A lesson we can learn from WW1 and WW2 is to have true peace. If you have "bad" peace, as we did during the times of WW1 & 2, it will just result in more war and problems in the future. It's important to settle what you started, instead of pretending and plotting against each other, even after things are "settled". A second lesson to be learned is that war should be avoided by all costs.
I think the leaders at the time didn't fully comprehend how much death they would cause at the start of the war. With around 175 million deaths in total of both wars, this is devastating, and some leaders were re-thinking their decisions. Notes & Reflection On the First Big Fight. (2021).

My groups Kahiau topic is homelessness. The ideas of the native traditions of foraging/hinter-gathering can impact my topic beyond the Covid Pandemic because of the way that the economy works. It seems that hunting and gathering was a way to get the things that you need, but the way society works is that we arenʻt giving the same opportunities to the homeless. The causes of homelessness are numerous and complex. Homelessness can be caused by poverty, unemployment or by a shortage of affordable housing, or it can be triggered by family breakdown, mental illness, sexual assault, addiction, financial difficulty, gambling or social isolation.
The world and society is constantly changing to the next bigger thing, but this doesn't always mean that it's better. We are now living in a world where we are dependent on big corporations for our basic needs of food, water, and shelter. We reply on technology to do simple tasks for ourselves as-well. This has lead some to be detached from reality and detached from life itself. Learning about your culture and past is very important because it gives you a sense of identity. In the past, people were gatherers', our diet was much healthier then because of that. You can also lear many things from your culture, things that the education system now does not teach.
