I actually had a really difficult time separating the social issues that I feel passionately about into ten different categories. Many of these issues go hand-in-hand. For example, industrial agriculture has a devastating effect on the environment, and global poverty and a lack of education are closely linked. Genocide, of course, is the ultimate violation of human rights, and equality for women has been shown to help alleviate poverty and increase education. In my mind, so many of our world's problems are intertwined.
