Modern Societal Challenges

The changing in our eating habits in the last few decades have been mostly negative. In my opinion I think that there are more and more problems with the food industries and one of the biggest problems is meat. Many people have stopped eating it because of the treatment of animals. Another reason I think people feed on a lot of pre-cooked food for different reasons and one of them may be not having time to cook because of work, studies… I think that this may be hurting our health as many food we eat in don’t have enough vitamins (that food has without being pre-cooked.) These contain more fats, calories and other substances that are not needed in all foods. To finish I think we should pay more attention to what we should eat, and it’s not about stopping eating meat or pre-cooked food. We simply know what we eat.

We should increase drinking age to 21. In my opinion, I don't think it's worth giving any results to raise the drinking I think that today's teenagers are getting ahead of themselves, but not just with alcohol, but with tobacco as well. They come out of partying and looking for remedies to get alcohol. Another reason is that many stores sell alcohol to minors and that affects young people to get alcohol easily and start drinking before the age of 18. I don't think the problem is in raising the age at 21, but the alcohol should be controlled and banned. To finish I think teenagers should not drink, just because it affects them physically and mentally. They can party without having to drink to have a good time.

In many countries, when someone gets old, they often go to live in a home with other old people where there are nurses to look after them. Sometimes governments pay for this care. Who should be responsible for our old people? In my opinion old people should be taken care of by their families, however, I do not agree to question who should take care of them. I think that people who have been working most of their lives deserve a good salary for the rest of their lives. But that doesn’t mean that the state that pays them the salary, has to take care of those people. That’s why I think it should be family or friends that should take care of those people.  Another reason I think it should be the family that takes care of these people, is because of the love they need to receive. The state I don’t think they can give love, they just have to make sure those people get the money.

Driving age. What age do kids start driving in your state? Is that age too old, too young, or just right? Why?I think that nowadays it is more common to Firstly,in our country the minimum age to start driving i 18 years old. However, in other countries you can drive being 16 years old. In y opinion, I do not think that arriving when you are 16 is a good idea. I agree with the idea of starting to drive at 18. Secondly, I feel very strongly that at the age of 18 we are mature enough to drive. At this age we should be more concentrated in the rood.  People who are 18 are more responsible so this way drivers can feel more secure. I think it is clear that driving is a serious thing. We should conscious about the dangers that we can produce because a mistake. So we should be responsible enough to drive.
