Global Issues- Malaysia Week


This year for Malaysia Week I went to Endau Rompin. On the way there, I could see some serious global Issues. The first was the palm tree plantation. After the bus ride, we needed to ride a jeep to go through non-asphalt road. During that ride, I saw that the road was nothing but orange dust, and only life I could find on the way was palm trees. Every time the Jeep in front of ours moved, it was gone behind a thick layer of orange cloud. The next was seen about an hour later, when I saw a big area of land covered with ashes. I just thought there could have been a forest fire, but I saw a fire still on and a person just staring at it. That's when I realized that the person intensionally burned down the trees of the forest, turning it in to Carbon-dioxide.
