THE WORLD'S DEADLIEST DISEASE
Imagine an isolated village somewhere in Sub-Saharan Africa. Only a couple of hundred people live there—the same as they had 500 years ago. No running water, no power, no clean water, all the commodities of modern life passed away. In that village, many babies and young children die every year from a disease that has plagued the people for centuries. Famine, disease, and suffering have become a way of life. This is the personification of malaria. Malaria not only brings death, but also ruination to vast parts of the globe today. Malaria is the number one killing disease in human history. In particular, the African continent has been decimated by malaria throughout history and today. While some claim resources could be better spent elsewhere in the continent, more resources need to be contributed to fighting the epidemic of Malaria in Africa because of its adverse effects on the continent. Malaria is the number one cause of death in many African states, and it has contributed in large part to the continent's slow infrastructural growth for generations. Based on statistics gathered by The World Health Organization, "In 2020, the African region was home to 95% of malaria cases and 96% of malaria deaths'' (World Health Organization 2021). More resources need to be contributed to fighting the epidemic of malaria in Africa because of its adverse effects on the continent.

The Eruptions That Shook the World: The Top Five Volcanoes with the Most Devastating Impacts
I. Introduction A volcano is an opening in the Earth's surface through which molten rock (magma) and ash can escape. Magma is formed when the Earth's mantle (a layer of the Earth below the crust) melts and rises to the surface. When it reaches the surface, it is called lava. Volcanoes can form in several different ways, including through the movement of tectonic plates, through the rising of magma from the mantle, and through the eruption of hot spots (areas where magma from the mantle is able to reach the surface).
