Biome in Haiti

1. Haiti has a forest biome and and a desert biome.
2. The biome is part of the reason for Haiti's problems. For example because of soil erosion and deforestation Haiti has experiences flooding.
3. Honestly money never solves all of the issues. Fifty billion dollars would help with the land and the construction of homes and hospitals but only if the government wanted it. Everyone has to be involved in the solution of the problems in order for the solutions to work.
4. I think that if Paul Farmer is doing what the people of Haiti wants him to do then I think he is great. He stands up for what he believes in and he helps hundreds of people with medical care. ALthough I think he is doing a great job, I don't know how effective he is. He is doing great things with medicine but how much influence he has on the government is slim. I share his views on the mistreatment of the Haitian people by their government; however, I could not be as extreme as he is.
5. I think that Paul Farmer is doing what he should be. He is only one person and him concentrating on one area is good. He is not stretching himself out too thin. He should just concentrate on Haiti and their needs.
6. I absolutely LOVE that commercial. It got the message across in an effective yet cute way. I thought it was amazing.
