Smoking

Smoking is harmful to your body; this is a logo for this year. Some people are against and some support it.

It is the personal freedom of the individual to choose his way of life, however, smoking cigarettes has grown and spread all around the world. The statistics for three years ago show the number of smokers under 18  to be approximately 20%, and 40% for adults. In my opinion there are dangerous rates and we should find solutions to face this problem. I think smoking lets you spend lots of money and wastes your time. Although, smoking harms your health and life, for example, cancer and other problems. On the other hand, some smokers are against my opinion. Most of them smoke to erase their problems. Some of them for fun and some of them are addicted for example, smoking more than 3 packets of cigarettes per day.

 I believe that smoking is more harmful than it is beneficial for your health. It causes heart disease, for example, more than 20% of smokers have heart attacks, and also cancer. The governments should try to stop smoking by lots of solutions, for example, impose high taxes for those who want to buy cigarettes, and put some logos on packets to show you how smoking affects your body.      

In conclusion, I believe governments should put some rules for smokers to stop this disease.

Road congestion in AD

Abu Dhabi has become modern and has more population than before; around 450.000 people live in the capital; now Abu Dhabi suffers from traffic in the street and tries to find possible solutions.

First of all, Abu Dhabi tries to face the traffic problems; streets have more cars and it is uncomfortable to find parking near to your house or to your work. The numbers of people are more day by day, and on the other hand people need transport. The first reason for traffic congestion is the cars; I made a study about the traffic and found for each family there were approximately three cars. It causes an imbalance in the demographics; the numbers of parking areas are few if compared to the numbers of cars. I think banks have an active role to increase these problems, by giving them loans. Or maybe the cars in the UAE are cheaper than in other countries. In addition petrol is cheaper than other countries.

The government used experienced consultants from outside the country to fix demographics and find possible solutions to face the traffic problem. After years of studies, the government put some policies to determine the number of cars for the family. That is one of the solutions to reduce the traffic. Force the drivers to pay for the parking 3DH per hour for the main streets and 2DH for back streets, to limit using the cars and reduce the numbers of cars. Another solution is expansion of the streets and building the bridges, to make it easy to move the traffic.

In conclusion, I believe government tries its best to reduce the traffic by building the bridges and expanding the streets to reduce the numbers of accidents and cars.

Population Growth, 1750 to 2150

The population in the earth is increasing. In this essay I’ll try to describe the population growth in richer and poorer countries between 1750 and 2150.

First of all, the chart describes the population in 1750 as around one billion, with most people in less developed countries. Next in 1800, as you can see there is a rise of population to approximately 1.2 billion. After that, in 1850 the chart shows us the rise of population round about 1.3 billion, with more people in less developed countries. Next, in the year 2000, the population has increased more than before, around 6.1 billion. The statistics in the year 2050 show an increase of population to round about 8 billion.

In conclusion, the statistics show the biggest population in 2150 and the smallest population in the year 1750.

City growth

The world population are is increasing, which shows in  growing cities  all around the world. In this bar graph I will explain the growth of urban agglomerations between 1950 and 2015.

First of all, In 1950 the population in London was around 7,000,000 and 6,700,000 in 1970. Next in Egypt, the statistics showed from year 1950 the population was around 2,000,000 ; after 30 years still the Cairo city had reached about 10,000,000 and after 15 years Egypt country had  over  15,000,000. Next in New York City, 11,000,000 in 1950, and 16,000,000 in 1970. In China around about 5, 000,000, and in 2000 round about 11,500,000 . In Bombay , 4,000,000 in 1950, 6,000,000 in 1970. Sao Paolo city, in 1959 was round about 2,500,000 and 2,000,000 in 2015.

In conclusion, the highest population is 2,000,000 in Tokyo and the lowest population in 1950 was in Ligos.

Global Warming

The earth has started to change; also temperature has started to increase, it is hotter than before and that is what it is called the global warming. In this essay I will write how the global warming is threatening our climate.

Global warming affects our lives and is threatening our climate. In addition temperature increases without stop day after day. The human is the first cause of global warming. Chemicals are emitted from large factories. Nuclear plants produce dangerous toxic waste. This affects our climate and the ozone layers. Fires also affect our climate. Population is increasing and  the people need transport; for example, they need cars and trains to conduct their business. I read in some books how the car exhaust affects our environment; car exhausts let the carbon dioxide gas out to open air and that is one of the basic reasons to make temperature increase. In addition the medical waste goes to land fill; some countries don’t know the risks to let some of these items be put underground.

To avoid the earth’s warming we need solutions. For example, try to reduce the normal  car usage;  economic and electric cars; it is good for our environment. Try to stop use negative behavior from factories made without any care for our climate and our environment.

In conclusion, I think the best solution to keep our earth save is first try to use electric cars and to recycle the medical items in the right way, stop  factories smoke and find another environmental solution to solve the global warming.
