Should the exams disappear from schools? (opinion essay)

Should the exams disappear from schools?

Have you ever thiought about whether your schools is preparing and teaching you about the real world? In the future, you will have a job, and it will have to be relationed to your skills and how you can use and improve them. I strongly believe that our education system isn't has this aim.

Firstly, we know that, it works with exams, and, unfortunatelly the marks decide your intelligence.

If you know how to learn by heart a lot of information and then, you use this in a test, you will succeed. 

From my pount of view, it doesn't increase your criteria, because you can't think or see out of the box. As I see it, your creativity hasn't a place here.

Consequently, we are teaching the new generations wrongly, we are making human robots, without a mind or imagination.

In short, in my opinion we need to make people aware that maybe we can solve a lot of problems of our students if we make the exams disappear. Besides, we can change them by leisure activities that increase the motivation of pupils.

Should we become vegetarians?

Should we become vegetarians?

Did you know that 50 billion farm animals worldwide are raised in factory farms, where they live and die in pain? Can you live in peace knowing this pact? We strongly believe that the number of vegetarians should increase.

First of all, you should know that raising half a kilogram of beef uses up to 1900 litres of water. It is enough for you to shower for a year. Besides, raising animals for food uses 30% of the world's land, wich is a lot.

Secondly, another important aspect to consider is that at least, 50% of greenhouse gases are emitted by cattle. 

Fortunately, becoming a vegetarian help the environment, as well improve our health, because it reduces the risk of suffering heart diseases, obesity or diabetes. 

In conclusion, from our point of view to be vegetarians would help the environment and ourselves. That's why vegeterianism is the best way of life in the world.
