theme:  Opening 1,000 new restaurants around the world

about:  This articles tells us that McDonalds is planning on opening 1,000 new restaurants mostly in Europe, Asia,  U.S.A and some in Latin America. They are also planning on remodeling  2,300 restaurants that already exists. They are making it more comfortable, modern and make the menu better. They will also make a 2 lane drive way so the lane is not too long. I think it is too much restaurants but  McDonalds says it will increase their income by 7%.

why do we think this is important: This is important because with all of this new restaurants lots of more people are going to have jobs. But this is also bad because the food has a lot of grease in the food so this is unhealthy for all the people who buy it.
