#friend #two #weeks’ #time #business #trip #-apologise #visit #-explain

Dear Joan, I hope you’re well.

I’m

afraid that I could not come to visit you

this

summer. After hearing that you got your new house, I’ve been excited to go to your place and stay during July. I was really looking forward to catching up with you, but something has come up and

I’m

not going to be able to make it.

I’m

really sorry that I have to cancel the trip, especially since we haven’t seen each other for ages. So, what’s my excuse? My boss just reminded me that our company will take part in an exhibition in Milan which will run from July 10th to 20th, and

I’m

assigned to be in charge of introducing our new products to customers who will visit our booth.

Then

, our company will grant a free Europe tour for me and some colleagues, so I will only come back

at the end

of July.

However

, on a positive note, my company has allowed me to take all my annual leaves

this

autumn, so perhaps I will visit you

then

. Did you say that it’s fantastic to see the leaves changing their colour, right? Sorry for the summer and see you in Autumn. Best regards, James

Personally, I think that overpopulation is not the main problem for humankind because the problem of global warming should be now of utmost importance. In this essay, both causes and my opinion on this will be elaborated on. There are a couple of reasons why there is a significant increase in population density. Firstly, the main cause of this is high quality of life. These days, almost everyone has a place to stay, food that is needed and a safe environment. People in the past could only dream of this because there have been endless wars where thousands of them have been dying, as well as a lack of food which has affected many lives in the past.
