April World Hunger and Poverty Blog Carnival

Today I will post a list of links to relevant blog posts that I received last month. This is called a “blog carnival.” I do one on the first of every month. Please bookmark this page right now so you can come back later and read more posts. Remember the following posts do not necessarily reflect my opinions, nor do I necessarily confirm any information in them. Here they are:

Jackson Kern presents The Power to Feed the World? A Tale of Sustainable Development, BioEngineering, and Citizen Activism posted at Sustainable Development and Humanitarian Causes: The Alternative Channel Blog, saying, “It is a fact that high-yield seeds and other varieties, readily proffered by Monsanto and others, have allowed for intensifications of agricultural cultivation.

Bev Lightworker presents Free Clicks posted at Conscious Flex, saying, “When you first enter this website article, you will see at the top on the left under a section called “Heroes” something that says: “Save The World – One Click At A Time! On each of these websites, you can click a button to support the cause — each click creates funding, and costs you nothing! Bookmark these sites, and click once a day!” Just under the buttons is a HTML code where other can spread the knowledge of this using the HTML code on their website, blog or any HTML code acceptable area. I feel this is a very worthy cause.”

Romeo Vitelli presents Starved For Science posted at Providentia, saying, “A little-known research project in WWII.”

Raymond presents The IRS Economic Stimulus Notice Letter Is A Waste Of Taxpayer Money posted at Money Blue Book.

Susan presents Guest Columnist Susan Jacobs: Medical Identity Theft on the Rise « Doctor Bulldog & Ronin posted at Doctor Bulldog & Ronin.
