POST 8: PERSONAL OPINIONS

Hello teacher and classmates, this week I'll give my opinion!

What is your opinion about recycling?

In my opinion, to recycle is currently fundamental if we want to stay alive. In this sense, the effects of global warming have received ample coverage in the press, the policy and the academic world, and, indeed, it has been clearly shown that to recycle is a way of counter this ecological disaster: the enterprises, the persons, the institutions and everyone must recycle!

What is your opinion about child labor?

In my point of view, the first thing that calls our attention here is an important and apparent contradiction: an economic system which “generates peace and prosperity” and a mass of poor children who are forced to work to survive. We must understand that the problem isn’t the Asiatic countries, where are the children’s, the problem is the structuration of the economic system.

What is your opinion about violence on television?

In my point of view, if we considerate the television a place of education and cultural reproduction, It is clear that violence on television is very dangerous for the society. In this sense, in the United States of America, there are several cases of murders caused by children’s who play violent videogames. It’s very terrible!

What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana and other drugs?

In my opinion, to legalize marijuana is an intelligent strategy to attack the drug trafficking. In this sense, this strategy has been effective in several countries like Uruguay, Jamaica, the United States of America, among others. But, we must considerate that to legalize marijuana and other drugs, in countries with huge problems of violence, will not solve this problem.

That is all for today, classmates and teacher! Regards!
