Opinion essay

Global warming a real problem

In this opinion essay I will be discussing the issue of Global warming, the biggest environmental problem, this subject is very topical and affects many people in different ways, because they seem forced to change their lifestyles for ever. I will examine arguments for and against this topic and also draw a conclusion based on the facts.

"One of the fist thing scientists supporters of  Global warming learn is that there are several gases responsible of warming and humans emit them in a variety of ways" says National geographic. I have seen how the Antarctic, the north and south pole are melting, the sea grows up and pollution levels in the air are rising, in addition, Natgeo also said that "most gases responsible of warming came from the combustion of fossil fuels in cars, factory's and electricity production."

It is a fact that the main responsible gas of warming is the carbon dioxide (Co2). This small particle is having an enormous impact in the ozone layer and is it almost destroying it, the solution to this problem is easy "Renewable energy", is the secret and the most powerful weapon to fight back the global warming. "With current technology, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and geothermal can provide 96% of our electricity and 98% of our total heating demand accounting for almost all of our primary energy demand." says Greenpeace.org.

Eventually some scientists say that global warming doesn't exist, that is not happening. Christopher Booking say that " temperatures have been dropping since the past forty years, and that's not all, he states earth was hotter one thousand years ago, his researches show that " temperature where higher in what is known as the medieval warming period."

What I think is that Global warming exists and is a real problem, we can notice it by just looking through the window to the outside in a winter day an you will see the sun up in the sky with really high temperatures, or the ice melting in the poles, all this is the result of global warming.

In conclusion, we must fight against this problem, making use of the technology in a responsible way without producing more CO2, reducing electricity consumes, reusing materials and recycling trash. Solar power instead of electricity to reduce the consumes, and at the same time we can use not only solar power but also wind and hydroelectric power; in other words, "Clean Energy" free of pollution, contamination and CO2. With the implementation of this new system of  energy the young generations of humans will grow up in a world without of warming and its consequences like pollution, and other environmental problems will have disappeared for ever.

It's not hard to see the result of our reliance on fossil fuels. The full impact of the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster may take a generation to reveal itself, but already hundreds of species of marine life have been affected, as have the communities that rely on the Gulf. Around the country, communities face devastating levels of water and air pollution as a result of coal burning power plants, which produce millions of tons of toxic sludge and smoke each year.

With current technology, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and geothermal can provide 96% of our electricity and 98% of our total heating demand — accounting for almost all of our primary energy demand.

One of the first things scientists learned is that there are several greenhouse gases responsible for warming, and humans emit them in a variety of ways. Most come from the combustion of fossil fuels in cars, factories and electricity production. The gas responsible for the most warming is carbon dioxide, also called CO2. Other contributors include methane released from landfills and agriculture (especially from the digestive systems of grazing animals), nitrous oxide from fertilizers, gases used for refrigeration and industrial processes, and the loss of forests that would otherwise store CO2.q

Draft

Hi, and welcome to the movie zone! My name is Julian Gatta and in this special day we will make a review of the most controversial movie of the year, called "The Fault In Our Stars", which is still available in cinemas.

We will start with an interesting fact: The movie earned two times more money than the one stared by actor Tom Cruise "Edge of tomorrow" something really unexpected for the audience.

"The fault in our stars" is the sixth novel by author John Green published on january, 2012 which turned into a movie in 2014,directed by Josh Boone.

The film stars are Shailene Woodly as Hazel Grace Lancaster, Ansel Elgort as August Waters and Nat wolff as Isaac.

The movie starts with Hazel Grace, a sixteen age cancer patient, who seems forced to go to a support group at the local church to make some friends. In this place she met August, an ex basketball player who had suffered from osteosarcoma which caused him lose his leg. Everything starts there, Hazel and August began dating and finaly both of them fall in love. At the beginning it was complicated because Hazel didn't want that a guy fell in love with her, because her life was horrible, all the chemotherapies, thecrisis and the restrictions she has by having cancer. It was a hard life and she wasn't interested in sharing her pain.  Hazel said that she was a bomb of time, that suddenly she could explote and hurt everyone who is arroud her.


Well, I think it is a very good movie to watch with your boyfriend or girlfriend or with the girl you like, it is a romantic bittter-sweet movie and if it doesn't make you cry you will drop at least one tear.

This was all for today, let's go back to the studio with nicolas, see you the next week!

Preparing my Movie review

1.- What is your piece of news about?
Is about a movie review of "the fault in our stars", a movie that still in the cinema, the one who had earn millions of dollars with this romantic history of two teens who fell in love.

2.- Select three sources of information and copy the links below.

a) http://www.indiewire.com/article/review-the-fault-in-our-stars-will-make-you-cry-does-that-make-it-good

c) http://www.courier-journal.com/story/entertainment/movies/2014/06/04/movie-review-fault-stars/9951595/


3.- Take note of 2 or 3 comments made by one of the people involved in the the sources you chose. Write the name of the person who said that.


A.-Kimber Myers: "you should probably not see "The Fault in Our Stars" with anyone you're trying to impress. You'll either end up a puffy, sniffling mess of tears, or you'll finish the movie dry-eyed and convince that person you're a psychopath"

B.-Paula Bernstein "This is 'Titanic.' Cancer is the iceberg we're gonna hit at the end of the movie, but that can’t be what the movie is about."

b) the movie earnd two times more money than the one protagonized by Tom Cruise "Edg of tomorrow".

Letter of protest

 councilllor Jorge castro
valparaiso city
12 of may 2014

Mr Jorge Castro

I wish to register my opposition to the massive stray dogs killing that will be carried in valparaiso city this friday 18 of may.

Im verry worried about the poor dogs and the homless people who feed them. I fear that it will lead to the situation of animal abuse. Do a charity center will be much better idea than murder millions of innocents dogs. My information says that ther is more people who prefer to open a charity than perform the masive killing, they allso comment on my blog that they can afford with money, food and homes for the valparaiso stray dogs.

its clearly unfair to the stray dogs, because they cant defend themselves, they can´t talk so we can´t listen their feelings, emotions or any solution to this situation, practicaly their are helpless, we must defend stray dogs right! Im talking by all vaparaiso´s stray dogs we won´t this massive murder! What you dont seem to realise is that this killing is a violation to the dogs right and the whole city of Valparaiso will turn againts you Mr Castro.

Pleas put an inmediate stop to this crime!Its unacceptable that a crime such as this one take place in our country. All this stray dogs dicerve to live peasfully such as a dog with a hause and a family, is not their fault to have ben born without a famiy who take care of them.

I look forward your responce
 
                              Your sincerely
                                                            Julian Gatta
