ANIMAL ABUSE

Nowadays, experiments on animals are often used in medicine to develop new medicines, to discover treatments for diseases or to test the safety of other products. However, we should bear in mind some negative and positive aspects and think if experiments on animals are really useful.

On the one hand, many of these experiments cause pain to the animals involved, although many times scientists use some kind of drug to sleep them. This way the animals suffer less. Another point against is that scientists don´t have the safety that the benefits in human beings will be completely sure. Moreover, animal experimenters are very aware that experimenting in animals could produce serious moral problems.

On the other hand, the experiments with animals allow us to find benefits for humans that could not be found with other methods. In addition, when we do experiments we harm animals but in return they give us new discoveries that could save our lives.

To sum up, experiments on animals can be very useful if they benefit human beings and the results are valid. Front my point of view, animals suffer and it is very sad but scientists do the experiments thinking about improving our lives and to find the best remedies to cure diseases.

Self-driving cars will also drive us round the bend 

 Our lives are full of technologies. There are machines and robots everywhere. Probably, we do not realize, but in our homes we use a lot of machines like washing machines, fridges or the mobile phones which are an important part of our daily routines. But do you think they can be a problem for us?

On the one hand, machines and robots are revolutionizing the world and are here to make our lives easier and less complicated. They can really do amazing things. There are different types of robots that have different functions. For example, robots that clean the house or do the housework or even robots that prepare the food. Robots can also take care of the elderly and interact with them and even remind them the medicines they have to take.

On the other hand, machines and robots could replace humans. There are more and more jobs that do not need humans. For example, in factories there are many things that robots can now do instead of a person. Just press a button or turn on/off for machines to work. Robots can also reduce your social life. Although they interact with us, it is not the same talk with a person face to face.

In my opinion, robots are very useful because they can make our lives easier and comfortable, but I don´t agree with that they replace humans in the jobs.

The Amazon rainforest, a big issue for the entire planet!!!


 The Amazon is the largest tropical forest in the world. It is found in South America and is very famous for its biodiversity. Nowadays it is being burned but why is the Amazon burning? Why is this a big deal?

So, as we know the Amazon is a very wet region, so fires are rare for much of the year. Experts say that causes point to deforestation. Moreover, Amazon burning has very bad consequences. Plants use the carbon dioxide from the air to give back oxygen to the enviroment. This oxygen is essential for living beings, since it allows us to breathe and perform vital functions.

In addition, Amazon is not only very important for our health but also its destruction has also consequences for the living being that live in it. There are 50% of plants and 20% of birds from all over the planet. And finally, air pollution is harmful to people´s health.

In conclusion, the fire of the Amazon is a terrible catastrophe that must be controlled. If we do not act quickly and stop this, the consequences will be worse.

NATURE could be the solution

 Nature is one of the most prestigious things we have. Recently it has been discovered that nature could be the solution to some mental illnesses.

Ecotherapy is what they call it. Contact with nature can provide physical and mental well-being. Nowadays there are many outdoor activities that can make you feel better with yourself, such as walking through the countryside, camping, hiking or just exercising. There are many studies that show that time spent outdoors can improve stress levels, reduce anxiety, improve self-esteem and also improve creativity and memory.

In fact, the concept of "nature healing" is a term that comes from our past and in other countries the materials that nature provides have been used to get remedies to treat diseases.
In my family we like to walk through the nature and when we have time we also ride a bicycle. Is a way to desconnect for a moment from the Internet and our stressful lives.

To sum up, ecotherapy is a good solution to improve both our physical and mental well-being. In my opininion nature is very important for ourselves and for that reason we should take care of it.

MORE DEMANDING JOBS AND STRESSFUL LIVES.

 Nowadays, jobs are so important in our lives and they are more and more demanding. It has been shown that spending more than thirty nine hours a week can produce stress and even is a risk to well-being.

In Spain and any part of the world we give too much importance to jobs and sometimes we set aside our social life, our family and we stop doing the things we like. Sometimes we think that we stop working but we continue to do it. For example, many people go out of the office and they revise the emails in their mobile phones or they get up and the first thing they do is look at the phone to check if they have any email.

People work a lot and they get very stressed. Furthermore, working excessively can bring health problems. In fact, there is a relation between overwork and cardiovascular problems and, according to investigations, there are more people that die than people who work.

To sum up, working too much is bad for our health and I think we spend a lot of time working and we do not pay attention to other things. In my opinion, the job in Spain is not valued enough and the labor journeys should be reduced.
