PART 2: Global Warming: A Major Concern
According to World Health Organization (WHO), global warming is the primary issues for concern. Noise pollution, overcrowding, traffic jams are some factors that have led to this problem. Lack of privacy is another factor in the modern times that is impacting people in ways that haven't been examined yet. We also see a wide variance in weather patterns, such as severe hurricanes and drought conditions in the U.S.

Based on your understanding of the topic, create a report in a Microsoft Word document answering the following questions:

According to the CDC website, violence is attributed for approximately fifty thousand deaths each year and results in over 2.5 million injuries. Homicide and suicide are the second and third leading causes of death, respectively, among US population aged fifteen to thirty-four years.
Hospital emergency departments treat an average of fifty-five people for injuries every minute. The worst after effect of the sudden population explosion across the globe is the rise in violence.
