Humans are polluting rivers and lakes faster than nature can clean them on their own.

As consumers, we can help by recycling things and choosing a sustainable choice.

For example, you may recycle plastics or bring your own bottle when going out. You may also buy and sell clothes in second-hand clothing stores.

Human activities that produce CO2 have been the primary cause of climate change. These activities include the use of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and gas.

Climate change is now causing extreme weather, melting polar ice, an increase in endangered species, and so on.

Yesterday, I went to the dentist. I made an appointment at two thirty not to forget it. I left at twelve thirty so as not to be late, and I arrived at the dentist at one thirty. I had an hour to waste. I was waiting, and then a dentist’s assistant spoke to me. She’s Jenny. I found someone to talk with! She was kind and funny. She told me interesting places to visit and gave me a lot of information about London. She also gave me some gum to chew so as to keep my teeth clean. I can’t wait to go to the dentist again!

Peace means cooperation, respect, and justice. It is what we need to have a better world.

However, there are still people who hurt others due to their fear, desire, or self-protection. Wars are still taking place.

Yet we must never stop working for peace. This process is called peacebuilding. Everyone will live in safety, without fear of violence.

If we all work together, we will surely live in a peaceful world.

There was a dog that had worked as a medical staff member at a hospital. He visited and helped the children relax. He also joined them in walking and exercise therapy. He had worked full-time at this hospital since 2012 as a facility dog.

How did he become a facility dog? First, he received different types of training. Second, he worked on a trial basis at a children’s hospital.

In his eight years of service, he had supported 3,000 children. He retired as a hospital dog on October 16, 2018.

Only a few hospitals in Japan have facility dogs. The main reason is the expensive cost. However, facility dogs play an important role as medical helpers in patient and family care. What can we do to find a solution?

The moai had indeed been taken away without the islanders’ permission. So why did the museum not agree to return it right away?

From the museum’s point of view, there are good reasons to keep the statue. Easter Island does not have the security and controlled environmental conditions that the British Museum has. So the statue is safer in London. Many people and scholars have easier access to the statue.

The real reason the museum refuses to return the Lost Friend, according to critics, is quite different. The museum has many more artwork taken without permission from all over the world. If the museum returns the Lost Friend, it will have to return the others as well.

Who owns works of art that are hundreds or even thousands of years old? One can argue that great artwork belongs to the entire world and should be on display in areas where people can safely appreciate it.
However, for the Rapa Nui people, the simple human desire to bring home a lost friend or family member is more important.
