Dear Sir/Madam, I am Robin a resident of the Alpha area, London, writing to express my dissatisfaction with the improper process of garbage collection in our area. As per government rules, everyday morning cleaning workers should pick up garbage from the containers and clean it properly. Unfortunately, they are not regularly doing
this
job,
hence
people are piling up the waste
next
to the tank. As you know, in
this
area there is a big hospital and many schools which are near to the garden. When the cans are full
then
children are throwing wrappers,boxes,etc on the roads and in parks.
This
is damaging the beauty of the garden. As well as, due to the small size of the vessel, hospitals are keeping the dangerous waste on the roadsides. Ultimately,
this
is affecting our health and the safety of the neighbours. The ideal solution, to resolve
this
crisis immediately is to contact cleaning management and instruct them to collect it every day.
Also
, to increase the number of containers not only near the schools but
also
near the hospital since it will help them to manage and segregate the waste as per the level of hazardous. I trust the situation will improve soon. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Robin Cooper.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
