Sydney p
1.Poverty is when someone doesn't have enough money for food or to take care of themselves properly.
2.Education does help because you need knowledge for certain jobs and if you have a job they will pay you then its up to you to waste your money on things you need.
3.Yes because people that are poor most likely live in an unhealthy enviorment. They get sick easily so scientist help to make drugs that will cure sickness.
4.Yes because they can help with poverty.
5.We should find ways to help and tell people so they will want to help.
6.Its not an obligation but we should try to help out with poverty.
Glenda R.
we decide what poverty is by people who are unable to provide for themselfs. yes because if you have an education you are more likly to get a better job. No the poor people should be their own responsibilty. still no. our response should be to just let them deal with there own problems. i dont think it does because if they were stupid enogh to get into this situation it should be their responsibilty to ge tout of this situation.
jared russo
anonymous said,
i decide what poverty is by looking at people that dont have a lot of food or money.Education sometimes prevents poverty but if your job goes bad then you wont have money.Now if you are an expert at math or arts you will almost have a job all the time.Well are response should be take care of our needs first, then their needs.Yes it does do something personally only if you do something with it
1. Poverty is when somebody is poor
2. Yes education helps prevent poverty because of fundraisers
3.I don't thing scientists have a responsibility toward poverty
4.I don't know about that
5. We should try to help
6. I don't kno
1. The way we decide what poverty looks like is by checking if a human is dying of hunger. Its when someone has no money to buy food and goes to sleep hungry.
2. Education does help to prevent poverty because it is much easier to get a job when you have good education, therefore, you will have money to buy the food you need.
3. I believe that scientists do not have responsibility for the poor because its the people that aren't able to get the education and get a job to make some money.
4. I think they have very little responsibility because they could be going out and helping some of the poor to learn so that they have the knowledge and will be able to get a job.
5. Our response should be that we all help out so that less and less people will die of starvation. Poverty is a big issue and should be dealt with.
6. Yes, it does give us obligation to personally do something about it. We should stop using our money to make ourselves look good and hep those people out. Celebrities and big companies should be able to donate some money. Also, the government is the biggest one who should be able to donate alot of money and get people out of poverty.

___JaZeLlE PaNdo=]
1. We Decide What Proverty is When There Are People in The World With So Little Of Things To Help Them Live.
2.Yes it Does Because if They Dont Have Much They Can Get Education Then Get a Job && At Least have Money Then To Buy More.
3.Yes, iN a Way They Do Because They Can Help Find New Ways To Help.

5.Our Response is To Put As Much Effort in As Much As We Can.

1. The way that we decide what is poverty is by looking at some ones economical situation and how they like and some of the background of were they live.
2. In my opinion education does help to prevent some poverty because the kids that use to live in poverty know the filling of living in poverty and they don't have a disier to go back into poverty and put a lot of hart into school and some times they help others get out of poverty when they finnish school.
3. I think that some scientist do have a responsibility towards the poor because some scientist waist a lot of money reaserching how to make products to help people that have another solution like fat people when they want to loose weight they can do excersise but they wist money on figuring out how they can loose wight with out doing excersise.
4. I think that it is different in the areas of arts or mathematics because scientist are more into the world.
5. I resposibilities to poverty should be to help others in need when we can.
6.I think it does because that makes us more cruel that knowing about a conflict in the world we don't do anything that the people that don't know any thing of poverty. We can do like a drive of non perishable foods and them send them with the animals that we are going to send.
1. We decide what poverty is by comparing their lives to ours, and seeing what the differences are.
2. Education may help prevent poverty in the children's futures because it may lead to the children to getting a good job and making good money.
3. Scientists do have a responsibilty towards the poor because they have discovered a lot of new things that help the everyday needs of people. For example, electricity was invented to fit the everyday needs of people.
6. Yeah i think that we can make a difference slowly by donating things that we don't need, but that they needy can use.

My Answers and Opinions:
1. We decide what is Poverty by the way we see poverty affects people, and by what Poverty does. We have to see the amount of people that are dying because of Starvation(Poverty).
2.Yes, Education does help to prevent poverty. When you have an education its more likely that you will have a career and a future in life where you will be able to have money and a good life and not living in poverty.
3.No, they don't have to be having a responsibility towards the poor but they sure are trying to find ways to help the poor out in any way that they can help. By making crops that always grow and scientific stuff....
4. Well, them either they don't have to have a responsibilty to the poor. But I think that they do anyways try to help. They probably get together with the scientists trying to make up new ideas.
5. We should try to beat it on any way that we can by giving out food or animals for the poor to get food out of the animals. There's not much that we can do to help, or any response won't actually make a big difference but we should neer stop trying.
6. There is no Obligation to do anything about them,but if you want to or feel the need to maybe you can donate an animal to a poor family in need, or start a fundraiser. There's not much that we can do.

1. In my opinion we decide what is poverty by the living circumstances of someone. Such as food, shelter, wages, health, and education.
2. Education does help prevent poverty because it gives people a higher opportunity to get a job that pays well. Also those well educated people can help other not so fortunate ones to begin a better life.
3.Scientist have a responsibility towards the poor because in a way they have contributed to the cause of poverty and now they must help the solution to it.
4.Im not sure if experts in other areas of knowledge are responsible for poverty because of their title, but as human beings we are all responsible in a way.
5.Our response to poverty should be not in words or by speeches but by ACTION!!
6.Our knowledge about poverty is an ethical obligation to do something about it personally because if we know what causes it, we can try and prevent ourselves from doing that.

♥Rosa ♥ F♥
1.We decise what poverty is by how people are trying to survive. You can make an average amount of money, but still be in need of it.
2. Education defenitely helps to prevent poverty because you could just even read, or know a different language and help make a difference.
3.Scientists do not have a responsibilty towards the poor, but in my opinion i think that they should come up with a type of solution/potion to try and help.
4.I don't think that it is their problem either, i guess it just sometimes ends up being that way or they bring it upon themselves.(poverty people) Though, everybody should try to help one way or another, try not to be a selfish person.
5.Our response to poverty should be to help any way that we can and for them to also try and help themselves because you really have to want it, try, and be grateful for it..
6.I think we should do something about it presonally because we should all be nice, grateful, and help eachother to be at peace and bring health because it will not only help us (people) but our Earth too.
