South Korean ministry of matchmaking

SEOUL (Reuters Life!) - A South Korean government ministry will help bureaucrats date, mate and procreate in order to boost the country's falling birthrate.

Lifestyle

The health ministry plans a matchmaking program where it will bring single public servants together for social gatherings and community service work in the hopes of fostering love among available bureaucrats looking to wed.

The ministry has been doing its homework on the unmarried.

"We found that single people fall into certain categories, much like the unemployed," said Choi Jin-sun of the ministry's human resources development division.

A 13 year old girl trying to educate the world about the serious environmental issues facing our planet, I didn't even know what global warming is when I was 13. Hopefully more and more people will wake up to the issue of global warming.

New York: Yugratna Srivastav, a 13-year-old girl from Lucknow, India has addressed the United Nations Climate Change Summit in New York. Yugratna's speech was cheered on by world leaders including UN General Secretary Ban Ki-Moon. "It was a very great experience for me because now actually I feel I'm one in a million who gets an opportunity to speak. I also met several heads of state and I was sitting next to Al Gore," said Yugratna to CNN-IBN.
