It's time to take actions

Картинки по запросу ecoactivist     The climate change is one of the hottest issue nowadays. The renowned ecoactivist Greta Thunberg, the youngest ever recipient of the magazine "Time" person of the year, once said "I want you to act as if the house is on fire, because it is". Everyday millions of factories produce tons of CO2 emissions. Streets are filled with vehicles, that our traffic system can't deal with. Plastic-made things in the ocean, forest and microplastic (output of plastic) is even in our bodies. It can't but concern people over the world, thus, all things considered, there are ways that we can personally follow to improve the global situation
          First thing to make our future brighter is to stop using plastic bags. Today supermarkets are giving away bags for free and it is not right, since they cost no money you are more likely to get bunch of them. You can easily supersede them with cotton ones which can be carried in your backpack. They are more environmental friendly as they decompose faster and they don't pollute the environment with noxious gas.
          Second is to stop using electricity and water when it isn't necessary to do. Some people brush their teeth with water running all over time. Some don't turn off the light while they sleep. The thing is that you are not only getting rid of the water to no purpose but you also are consuming the energy that was spent to produce this very water and electricity.
         Third, modern shops are trying to sell more and more clothes every season. Moreover, it is low quality. So, instead of buying a heap of clothes, try to find a high-quality garment, may be it won't that cheap but it definitely will last long. Buying less clothes will reduce the garbage impact on the planet.
        I think we shouldn't wait our government to pass new environmental laws, we can take actions right now, right in our place of living. In order to save the Earth for further generations and to provide a better living for us too.

Article 2. How my writing has changed?

How my writing has changed? Our class of academic writings soon will end. It’s has been a really worthy work that has taught me a lot, I’ve gained some experience, definitely enriched my vocabulary and done hips of exercises. Therefore, it’s a high time to give a synopsis of what has altered throughout the year. In addition to it, I’d like to tell why it is important to have sublime skills of writing.  These days it goes without saying that it’s a crucial thing to have fairly good skills of writing. Why? Because from the cradle to the grave we are to produce our thoughts and these notions can manifest in verbal or writing format. We will write all our life, from small papers like messages to the more complicated ones like theses. Thus, it is important to have this kind of class by virtue of it helps us not only to express our feelings and thoughts on paper but also to be comprehended by others and that is what we all are seeking.  My previous essay can provide an apt backdrop how my w

Task 1 The article summary

          The article " ‘ I gave away our stuff’: the minimalists doing more with less" written by  Jo Thornhill   published in the Guardian 29/09/2019 is devoted to the discussion of decluttering and unconscientious consumption.            First, the author explains that more and more people are heading towards minimalistic approach of life. They live with less, can have substantial benefits for the environment and people’s state of mind, as well as their finances. He gives an example of Georgina Caro who  downsized the family home, gave away three-quarters of their possessions and now thinks much more carefully about every purchase. As a result, Caro and her partner, Phil Warne, who live in Cornwall with their two young children, no longer have any short-term debts and have halved their mortgage.           Than the journalist draws the readers' attention to the fact that minimalism doesn't mean that you denying yourself accommodation, it means you buy less thi

EDUCATED: A MEMOIR ​ BY TARA WESTOVER

For  my English reading class I have chosen a book which is called ' Educated: a memoir' , which was written by Tara Westover.                Actually, I have chosen this very book because it was recommended by Bill Gates in his  blog . I was hooked by this very phrase   Bill: ‘I thought I was pretty good at teaching myself—until I read Tara Westover’s memoir Educated. Her ability to learn on her own blows mine right out of the water.’​    As we can see on the book cover there's a pencil which is symbolised education and in this pencil there's a mountain, to my mind, it refers to both 2 things, firstly the mountain shows how hard is to be educated yourself (one of the themes in this book) and secondly, the author pays a lot of attention to mountains and nature itself, where the main character (=author) was raised.         The issue of liberal education is one of the main ones in this book. Tara: ‘Everything I had worked for, all my years of study, had been t
