Many countries raise fuel prices to deal successfully with problems of traffic and polluon. What effects do you think this move can have? What other measures do you think can be taken to reduce traffic and pollution ?
There are arguments in public that the significant approaches to overcome pollution and traffic jam is increase the price of the fuel. Personally, I do think this is a good attempt but this leads to another problem such as stucking food suplies for farmers therefore another methode should be tried ; government can improve public transports and limited the number of selling vehicle in their county.

Some companies use a lot of packaging when selling their products. Why is this? Is it a good thing?
In today's consumer-driven market, it is common to see products wrapped in excessive packaging. This practice is driven by several factors, including marketing strategies, protection of the products, and consumer demand for convenience. While there are some advantages to using a lot of packaging, the overall impact is largely negative.

Some people believe that allowing children to make their own choices on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. Other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Criticisms are concerned that children will be endangered if they are given freedom of choice, while others believe that they will be better equipped to handle consequences in the future of their acts if given such freedom. From my perspective, I opine that children should be allowed to make their own decisions about personal matters.
