Students,
As we saw in the film "The Fall of Suburbia...," there are many serious issues in today's world that are created by the fight for natural resources. In the case of oil depletion, the consequences range from food shortages and massive blackouts to war. Although it hasn't received the same type of media coverage, the fight for Diamonds and other precious minerals, especially in Africa, has been equally as destructive to communities around the world.
