Trafficking of Species
I think that my country benefict economically,only a little bit because they use the wild animals of trafficking,to make clothes with their skin,so this clothes are sell,so they earn money. I think that with the Animal Trafficking the country is affect because bring wild animals from others ecosystems destroyed the ecosystems located in the country,and also affect because maybe,some animals can bring illnesses dangerous for the people and for the enviroment.Also,the animals travelled in very bad conditions.The people that traffick with the animals ,earn money with this so this is a positive effect for them,but not for the country. I think that maybe,some developed countries should give money to others taht have problems with the traffick of animals,to help them to stop it,but also if they have the same problems the countries would help between them. To lower the demand of wildlife in markets,maybe the countries would have to pay more attentiont to the wild animals of their country for avoid traffick of the animals of their country and tried to catch the people that bring wild animals of others couentries.To make sure that the traffickers ahve toehr ways to make money or to avoid that they traffick,they should catch them and put them in jail.To avoid that the traffickers cross the borders the goverment have to put more security in the borders,in the airports and in the customs of each country.

Child Labour
I think that Child Labour is more developed in more parts of the world than in others,because of the economy and each country,for examples in underdeveloped countries there is more Child Labour because of the economy,because Child work there for earn a little bit of money to help their families. In my country,The United States,Child Labout isn't a big problem,there the child have education and go to the school.Maybe there are some child that work,but only a few and no the majority of the child like in others countries. I think that gender is related with Child Labour,because there are mor boys than girls working so young in mines or wherever they work,because girls are most destinated to housework to help his parents in the house.Children should not have any job,because it affected them in their growth. You don't have to encourage children to go to school,I think that the goverments may have some laws about the Child Labour,and also don't allow children to work,but if it is natural in some cultures the goverments can't do nothing about that.A good balance between work and school is to go to school and learn and then if they want make houseworks and help their parents but there are some cases that some child are older of 16 and they work because they want or because they need money. The families of the child labourers can be help when their child stop working,bu the goverment,maybe the goverment can help them whith some money,giving their money to survive. There are some kinds of organizations that fight child labour like UNICEF and Barefoot Foundation.
