ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES DUE TO GLOBAL WARMING Forwarding a number of years, imagine an over-populated world having a problem with food and water shortages caused by Global warming. And with England now having a population of 240 million people, and climbing, and this being a real possibility of SOMETHING THAT COULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN, something needed to be done quickly in order to prevent the country from having its own food shortage, and starvation happening. So in order to prevent this happening, or worse, our future leaders, the Six Pack, would attempt to do this monumental task by freeing up more land to grow food crops, so had in a Speech, given many millions of people, eight years to move from their homes to make use of their land. And now with the clock running down those years, this story tells of five people, having all chosen to move to one small area of an already overcrowded Capitol City (London), now needing to live their lives in a vastly different society from the one they had previously known, so had needed to quickly come to terms and adapt to these changes. Having been either involved with romance, mystery, depression, murder, vengeance, hatred and violence, they would all have surprising tales to tell.

Reid Lewis never wanted to be an ordinary French teacher. With the approach of the American Bicentennial, he decided to put his knowledge of French language and history to use in recreating the voyage of René Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, the first European to travel from Montreal to the end of the Mississippi River. Lewis’ crew of modern voyageurs was comprised of 16 high school students and 6 teachers who learned to sew their own 17th-century clothing, paddle handmade canoes, and construct black powder rifles.Together they set off on an eight-month, 3,300-mile expedition across the major waterways of North America. They fought strong currents on the St. Lawrence, paddled through storms on the Great Lakes, and walked over 500 miles across the frozen Midwest during one of the coldest winters of the 20th century, all while putting on performances about the history of French explorers for communities along their route. The crew had to overcome disagreements, a crisis of leadership, and near-death experiences before coming to the end of their journey. The Last Voyageurs tells the story of this American odyssey, where a group of young men discovered themselves by pretending to be French explorers.
