In order for the world to be a ‘greener’ place, punishment and fines for environmentally unfriendly acts committed by individuals need to be more severe. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

The amount of carbon dioxide and other particles in the atmosphere influence the temperature on earth surface. Carbon dioxide is one of the most contributed chemicals which stimulates higher temperature on earth surface. The curative and prevention actions should be committed to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide on the earth surface. It is still a big obstacle on how to decrease the amount of this chemical on earth surface. Many policies created to reduce the rate of carbon emission. Some expert groups said that we should give harsher punishment to offenders of the green policy. In contrast, I do think that giving harsher punishment or increasing fines to the companies who contribute a lot on carbon emission will not be an effective way. In order to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide, we should do more collective actions. This is not only the responsibility of governments, but all the components should work hand in hand to tackle this issue.

Many cannot speak or present well in public. Some people think that it is important to speak well in public, so the training should be from school. Do you agree or disagree?

The fear of public speaking is so prevalent that more people scare of that than they are scared of death. Since many cannot speak fluently and coherently in public, it is argued that pupils shall get public presentation education from adolescent years. I agree with the notion, simply because of two main reasons. First, there are instances where a person unwantedly is needed to speak in front of a large audience, and second, this skill is best taught in younger ages.

Some people say that to become a good teacher, you should acquire enough training, while others say that teaching capibilities can be developed with experience. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

"Academic knowledge" versus "experimental insight" is a hot topic in various aspect of life. While a group of people argue that a great teacher is formed by adequate learning and training, others think that the experience is the key. The former group mention that education is an academic subject with a deep research and study background, and the latter point to the previous generations' teachers, where they were capable of motivating tens of young children at once. I, frankly, think neither an absolute academic approach is the final answer, nor is the experience, solely.
