Math Project-Child Soldiers

300,000 kids have died in Africa so far. This atrocity has started around 2007 and has become a worldwide issue. At this rate, 1,800,000 kids will die by 2020. In 13 years more than a million kids die. Can we let the whole population of African children die? Soon enough it might happen so we need to figure out how to stop this "pandemic". A pandemic of child abuse has struck Africa and we need to prevent millions of kids from death. We can't let millions of poor innocent children for an unethical reason. Saving adults. If kids die at this rate there will only be a handful of adults left.

Tiny Nuclear Batteries to Power Micro Devices

Have you ever seen a nuclear battery? Typical chemical batteries are the basic ones. In your remote is there a small nuclear battery with tritium. Believe it or not its here and has a semiconductor that harvests electrons.Although it won't power your laptop or ipod it is being developed by betavoltaics. This is actually a microwatt but it is one step closer to the future. A green world can help especially if we can figure out how to harness more energy. This actually happens to have an effect on the military. In theory betavoltaics is the main energy source and if we can expand it we will have a great future.
