Formal Letter

Mr President, Rajoy

Dear Mr President,

I am Marina Salinas and I am writing to you to express my opinion about the abortion law.
I think that we are going back in time, this law was abolished a long time ago, when society understood that women had rights as men. I believe that it is very sad that this law will be accepted one more time in the 21st century because in my view, women can decide about their bodies and nobody can take this right away.

We are talking about human rights, they can not be violated, so as a women I talk with experience because when I was 16 I get pregnant and I could abort. When I look back and think if I could not do this, my life would be distroyed, with 16 one does not know anything about life yet.

Yours sincerily;


Marina Salinas

Falling in love

Nowadays, teenagers, above all people arround eighteen years old, are more mature than younger generations because we have more experiemce in feelings.
One of these feelings is to be in love. In general, we have the view that love always brings us happiness, for example: we are more happy, we give and recieve love, we have the confiance that th other person will always be with us. In ahort, we always have a reason to go on:
However, not everything is positive, love has a lot of troubles. Firstly, the other person can distract us of our way. Secondly, it could be that one in the couple depends on the oter member and this fact can decrease your self steem.
To sum up, we need to know our feelings and have there clear so as not to destroy us. If we can do this, we can enjoy the most beautiful feeling.

Little story

Hello Pat, I'm Judith. I'm writting this note to you to say that I have lost the sunglasses that you lent me the other day. I think I left them in a café before going into the Dalis museum. 
I want to apologise because I know that you love this sunglasses. There are really nice, trully. I can get you another pair when I go to town.
Well I think that I lost your glasses yesterday, when I was visiting the Dalis Museum, I went with Sara. Before going into the museum we went to the bar and probably I forgot your sunglasses there. When I reallised that I wasn't wearing your sunglasses, I when back to this bar to ask for them, but they didn't know anything. 


World must end "dirty" fuel use - UN

A long-awaited UN report on how to curb climate change says the world must rapidly move away from carbon-intensive fuels. Natural gas is seen as a key bridge to move energy production away from oil and coal. But there have been battles between participants over who will pay for this energy transitions. The report is the work of the UN's Intergovernamental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which was set up to provide a clear scientific view on climate change and its impacts. The Summary for Policymakers on migration paints a picture of a world with carbon emissions rising rapidly. 
It's a fact that all our world is changing and this is brought about all the contamination that our produce with we activities day by day. We have to reduce all these activities or do it by means of a way less polutting. The plants are dying everyday and we die with them if we don't change our customs. We need to find a solution in order to keep our pace in life. I believe in the change.

You can retire before your 40th birthday

We all dream of retiring early with a fantastic pension and no money worries. What counts as early retirement? In the United States, The average adult retires at 61 according to a Gallup poll. In Australia, men retire within the last five years were 61.5 to 63.3, on average, and women were 59.6, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Whereas in Japan, the average worker retires at 69.1, and in Luxembourg, the average retirement age is 57.6, according to the Paris-based Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. But in some countries, like India, for instance, where two-thirds of the population is 35 or younger, this, more youthful working population has its goal set to retire earlier at 45 or 50.
Early retirement becomes an impossible dream for many people purely because they didn't plan it early enough. 

I think that it's a good idea to retire before your 40th birthday because in our civilization even though it's early, we can do a lot of things yet. I consider that people from 40 or 50 are young enough and have a lot experiences to live, they are alive. It's the best time to go away, to visit a lot of places and know new cultures and languages. If I have enough money when I am 40, I want to do it. I believe that it's a way of quality life.

I have lived underwater

Living underwater is seen by some as futuristic utopia, but what's it actually like? Rose Eveleth asks a man who eats, works ans sleeps on the sea floor.The idea of living underwater is often brought up as a possible future for humanity. Some have proposed submerged settlements as a way to preserve civilisation in the event of a global catastrophe, or to avoid overpopulation. Meanwhile, developers are alredy planning submerged hotels in locations including Maldives, Dubai, Singapore and Norway. These developments may one day live up to the romantic notions many have of life beneath the waves, but what's it like to live underwater today?

I was reading this piece of news and... Well I was really surprised that probably, in a future not very far, we can live underwater. The last summer I went to a centre of diving and it was amazing. I can't imagine living day by day underwater. It has to be really exciting. I hope one day I can visit a house underwater and spend a little time there, not forever, but one day or two it would be good. I hope that technology lead us to these new possibilities of life.
