Article: Food wastage
Food wastage
Do you know what amount of food is being thrown away worldwide each year? The figures don’t lie and show that over 2.5 trillion US dollars are wasted on this issue. Should this global issue be taken more seriously than we actually are doing?
To begin with, governments might make new laws in order to reduce food and loss waste. For example, manufactures/producers must make smaller resealable packages that would help to keep food in good conditions for longer. In addition, consumers would be grateful if the “sell and buy dates” were clearer. In other words, governments should act immediately by establishing efficient production.
Why we need to reverse this trend? Global warming is increasing due to the food wastage. It is important to know that food production depends on fossil-fuel energy is used in many processing stages, as cooling and transporting, for example. On the other hand, big areas of land are deforested annually to grow food. That matters to us, if we want to leave a clean environment to our children.
So, everybody must take part in this huge issue by being aware that we only need to buy that we really will eat.

Essay: How technology can both create opportunities for criminals and also to prevent crime
How technology can both create opportunities for criminals and also to prevent crime
It is really known how much the technology has been increasing over the last few years. There isn't anybody that doesn't have a mobile phone, for instance. But how does technology can be used by police and criminals?
Take mobile phones. This new technological device can he help the police to investigate a crime. For example, if the killers had their mobile on when they are being investigated, the police might know where they might be. It is very easy because of the GPS. In contrast, criminals could turn off their mobile.
Another example on this issue is the analysis of DNA. This really could help the police when clues are left, such as hair, blood or even a cigarette butt. Although there have had some difficult cases, criminals have been caught at the end, thanks to the help of new technological advances. However, they always try not leave tracks that could provide some clues for the police.
To sum up, in spite of new technology could help criminals, the police has more opportunities to catch them now!

To begin with, football is clearly the favourite sport for the majority of people. Nevertheless, there are other popular sports and games, such as tennis, swimming and running.

Choose a sport you like it and enjoy your free time with your friends!

Introduction
The purpose of this report is to report on factual information about the US logging industry and its workers.
The US lumber industry
It is known that logging industry in the United States has a huge number of employees because of its importance within the sector for job creation. Nevertheless, we should know that Canada has been increasing its production, thanks to the help of Canadian government. In spite of that big competition, US is the biggest exporter country in the world.
Loggers, their pays and conditions
If we analyse the facts, we can find how risked and low paid lumberjacks are. It is claimed that nearly 4% of these workers suffer illnesses and damages each year. Besides, their pays are lower than the American's majority.

Article: An environmental issue that concerns me
An environmental issue that concerns me
Do you know how many animals are being killed by illegal hunters in Africa? That's really a big issue that concerns not only me but all people around the world.
To begin with, I can understand those tribes who9 hunt for food. They have been hunting for all their lives due to their needs, such as meat or clothes. Nevertheless, I can't understand people who hunt for sport. That's a blood sport, isn't it?
It is claimed by many organisations that illegal hunting in Africa should be banned because of its environmental damage. We need to make demonstrations because African elephants have to continue living in their areas.
In conclusion, wildlife should be protected because of the nature. This issue concerns all countries, not only Africa. If I were the governments, I would try to punish hard furtive hunters.
It is said that there are laws but hunters continue doing that. Where is their moral?

Essay: Game of darts
Game of darts
I am going to describe in this essay the game of darts and something else about where people used to play it. Besides, we will know why it has become so popular.
It is known that darts and other games were played in traditional British pubs around 30 years ago. However, many of them disappeared and darts was the only one that has gone more popular, in spite of its early ban.
Due to8 darts were used as weapons of war, it was banned this game. Nevertheless, a famous player called William Big Foot demonstrated in a court that darts was only a game of skill.
Therefore, it exist rules for this game and are based on the points you can achieve when you hit the dartboard on certain areas. Last World Championship final was won by Gary Anderson, in spite of he wasn't the favourite. If I had known this game before, I certainly would have played more times!

No, they really work hard since they aged 6, when they are given farm animals to look after or must defend their properties with weapons in case of attack.
In addition, farm animals have always been the centre of their lives because of their food and milk. Sometimes, cows are even used as form of money. The adult animals, as cows or sheep, live on the central patio of the kraals, while babies are more protected in each house yard.

Letter to an editor_What my favouirite national custom is.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to you because I would like to say what my favourite national custom is. Although there are a lot of interesting famous customs in Spain, such as ‘Los San Fermines’, the one I like most is ‘The International Guitar Festival of Córdoba’.
This custom has been celebrated since 1980 and has become one of the most important cultural events we have in Córdoba. Along last years, many famous musicians have been demonstrating their high level of performance. During the event, you could attend concerts on classical, flamenco and medieval guitar. Furthermore, learning to play the guitar has always been an educational part which people like very much.
Besides, I like this custom because of my love for music. It is known by teachers how much I used to enjoy music since I was in my first school years. Moreover, it is celebrated in my own town in June.
If I were you, I would try to book your tickets on the internet two months before because it runs out early. Thank you very much for give students the opportunity to express their likes for the magazine.
Yours faithfully,
Carmen M.
