Philanthropy and volunteerism are embedded in our Syrian heritage. The family-oriented system is prevalent in our Syrian culture, and for that we are all responsible for the wellbeing of the entire community.

Our blessings, successes, and gifts of freedom and liberty should excite us to serve fellow man. At present, thousands of Syrian refugees are expected to come into the U.S as their homeland had been ripped open by the civil war. We ought to use our political

Recruitment and use of children in war is one of the six grave violations against children in situations of conflict. Currently, there are over 300,000 child soldiers being exploited in battle, while six million have been gravely injured or are now permanently disabled. Additionally, there are about 20 million boys and girls that have been displaced and are refugees in surrounding countries due to the gross violations of conflict and human rights. The role of children in armed conflict is not restricted to direct participation in warfare, but includes boys and girls in support functions that ultimately are a bigger risk and hardship than combat.
Syrian civil war started in 2011 was the outcome of the opposition against the President Bashar al-Assad regime. The uprising emerged as a response to the Arab spring movement that lead to regime change in Tunisia and subsequently turned into mass unrest rooted into the discontent with long-term dictatorship and poor economic situation in the country (Manfreda, n.d.). The number of Syrian citizens killed in the civil war reached 140000 since March 2011 (SBS 2014).

The Holocene Epoch is the timescale given to the last 11,700 years of earth’s history, beginning at the end of the last ice age. (BD Smith et al, 2013) Therefore it can be noted as being a relatively warm period in history in comparison to other scales of time from the past. The Early Anthropogenic Hypothesis is an idea put forward by Professor William F Ruddiman from the University of Virginia which states that the effects of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions did not occur simply since the industrial era, but may well have been kick started many thousands of years before this, closer to the start of the Holocene. By which may have prevented the start of an ice age during this timescale.
