The world around us by Gisely Boer https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7 Opinion Essays by Grade 7 students about the environment en-us 2019-06-10 19:03:47 UTC 2023-05-08 15:21:03 UTC hello@padlet.com https://imgglb.padletcdn.com/v13/image?t=g_auto&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpadlet.net%2Ficons%2Fpng%2F1f5d1.png Rodrigo Pollak https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367054583 People should pay for each bag of rubbish they produce. Do you agree?

   Nowadays in most of countries people don't pay for the trash they produce. Consequently, many people produce a lot of rubbish. In my opinion it would be better for the environment if people paid for the trash they produce.
   Firstly, if we reduce the quantity of trash we produce, people will rethink before buying something. Consequently, they will spend less money. Secondly, only 62% of Brazilians have access to regular garbage collection. Consequently, the other 38% throw their trash on streets, rivers and etc... consequently the cities have more trash.
   In conclusion, if people pay for they rubbish, they will be aware of how much trash they produce. As a result, everyone will produce as little trash as possible and spend less money.]]> 2019-06-11 23:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367054583 Maya Bekhor https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367219265 People should pay for each bag of rubbish they produce. Do you agree?

   At present people can produce as mush trash as they want, just a few people recycle. What's more, in Brazil people produce 240 thousand tons of rubbish everyday, and there's no law for this. It is an absurd!
  Firstly, people need to rethink about their act and produce less trash. What's more, people don't recycle in Brazil, just 3% of the rubbish is recycled today. Furthermore, rivers are too polluted with trash that is not recycled. Consequently, people are dying of problems such as air pollution and this is terrible! If people produce less trash people can contribute helping the environment. What's more, local councils will spend less with landfills.
  In conclusion, I believe people should pay for each bag of trash they produce. Furthermore, we can use this money to help the environment, with all these problems it is going through.]]> 2019-06-12 16:21:35 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367219265 Nina Mazzeo https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367220466 People should pay for each bag of rubbish they produce. Do you agree?
   
At present people produce as trash as much they want. Furthermore, Brazil produces 240 thousand tons of trash per day. There is no law to stop that absurd and we want to change that.
   Firstly, only 3% of  Brazilians recycle. What´s more, the river in São Paulo is full of trash. In my opinion there should be a law to help our planet. In that law people should pay for each bag of rubbish they produce, for example I produce one bag of rubbish, then I pay R$10,00. The money that is collected will be used to improve the city and help homeless people. As a result, local councils will spend less, will help the environment, the wild life and everyone will rethink before producing trash.
   In conclusion I want to show some ideas to help our cause: people can make their own things, bring their own  bottle to school and their own bag to the markets and shops, for example. This way we will reduce the trash in Brazil and maybe in the world.]]> 2019-06-12 16:26:59 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367220466 Mariana Braga https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367446668 Public transport should be improved and free. Do you agree?

   Nowadays there are a lot of cars on the streets of SP. Consequently, the air is very polluted. People get angry when they drive because of the heavy traffic. One alternative to solve this problem is to use public transport, but at present they are really expensive and inefficient. In my opinion it would be better for the citizens if the public transport were improved and free.
   Firstly, everyone will be able to use it and more people will want to use it too. Consequently, it will have fewer cars on the street, the traffic and the air pollution will reduce. Secondly, it's the duty of the local councils to provide good public transport to everyone and they have money for it.
   To sum up, if more people use public transport, people will interact  more and will get to know more about their cities. Furthermore, the separation of social classes will be less visible if everyone starts to use it. What's more, if the public transport is improved, our cities will be improved too.

   Nowadays, people produce a lot of trash everyday. I think, it will be better for us and for the environment if we pay for each bag of trash we produce.
   Firstly, it will make people aware of how much money they are spending. As a result, they will try to produce less trash. Furthermore, people will rethink before buying something . ''Do we really need it?" Because packaging goes to landfills and a lot of trash goes back to the environment. If we produce less trash, the environment will not be so harmed. The trash in the cities, for example, can cause air pollution and diseases and in the sea it can cause deaths of many sea-animals.
   To sum up, if we pay for each bag we produce we can produce less trash, save money and we will not harm the environment.

At present, people in SP produce a lot of trash and the majority of people don't  care about the environment. Consequently, SP has a dirty river and the rates of air pollution are very high. In my opinion, people should pay for all the trash they produce.
Firstly, people produce a lot of trash, more than in the past. Secondly, people buy and buy things that come in a lot of packaging. Furthermore, many things that they buy are unnecessary (they want, they don't need).
What's more, only 62% of Brazilians have access to regular garbage collection. Consequently, the other 38% throw their trash in inappropriate locations (street, rivers, etc). Making people pay for the trash they produce is the only way to reduce trash and save the environment. As a result, the quantity of trash  will be reduce dramatically. Furthermore, people will care more about the environment.
In conclusion, I believe that paying for the rubbish you produce will reduce the amount of trash and will be good for the environment. What's more, it will also be good for local councils because they will spend less money.

   Nowadays, people use way too much plastic, even more than what they really need to use. Consequently, the landfills are getting bigger. In my opinion, the overuse of plastic should be forbidden.
   Firstly, animals are dying in the ocean because of all the plastic we end up throwing there. Secondly, the pollution is getting worse worldwide because of many reasons, but plastic is the main one. Furthermore, plastic is made of petrol, and if companies continue to overuse it, petrol is going to end soon. 
   In conclusion, if the overuse of plastic was forbidden, people would finally think about the urgent situation our planet is going trough. It would be better for the environment and we would be living a healthier life.]]> 2019-06-16 22:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367806045 Mila Hegenberg https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367970819 The overuse of plastic should be forbidden. Do you agree ?

At present, everything comes in plastic and we produce a lot of trash. What's more, plastic pollutes a lot the environment. In my opinion, people should pay for all the trash they produce. 
Firstly, people don't recycle as much as they can and produce more rubbish
than in the past. What's more, the landfills are filling up very quickly  which destroys the wild life. Secondly, in Sao Paulo we depend on the catadores, without them  our city would be a huge landfill. If we use less plastic it will be safer for the wildlife and it will prevent global warming from happening. 
In conclusion, I believe this act can save our world. Furthermore, it will be good for everyone. ]]> 2019-06-17 18:36:23 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/367970819 Gabriela Castro Frois https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368209630 The overuse of plastic should be forbidden. Do you agree?

 At present everything comes packed in a lot of plastic. Consequently, we produce a lot of trash and all this plastic pollutes the environment. In my opinion, the overuse of plastic should  be forbidden  because all this rubbish is making the world worse.
Firstly, humans use so much packaging which is not necessary. Secondly, people don't recycle and as a result, Brazil produces 240 thousand tons of trash everyday and this is too much. If plastic is forbidden, everything is going to change, we will have less trash. Consequently, it will be safer for wildlife. What's more, it will prevent global worming from happening and all these things are very important for nature.
In conclusion, I believe plastic should be forbidden. I know that in the beginning that will be very hard but in the end, it will be better for the environment and for everyone.

Nowadays public transport in SP is in really bad conditions, it's hot, uncomfortable and dirty. Furthermore, it's really expensive, so it should be improved and free.
Firstly, public transports are more environmentally-friendly than cars and people keep using cars a lot and much more than necessary. Cars contribute with air pollution and people still use it. Consequently, people die everyday because of the bad quality of the air. Secondly, there are people that can not pay for a car or a bicycle and have to go to work or school by bus or subways, but don't have money to use it! That's an absurd! Everyone should be able to use public transport, so it should be free. As a result, people would use public transport much more often and it would help so much the environment. Consequently, poor and homeless people could use it too! What's more, people would interact much more.
In conclusion, it would be better for the world, for the environment and for everybody. So, I do believe public transport should be improved and free! :))]]> 2019-06-19 16:49:16 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368344452 Luisa Momesso https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368349678 Farms should be built in skyscrapers in São Paulo. Do you agree? 

Today there aren't farms in most of big cities especially in São Paulo. In my opinion, it will be better for the environment if we build farms in some skyscrapers in Sao Paulo.
Firstly, the transport of foods pollutes the air a lot. Consequently, the air pollution in Sao Paulo kills more people than breast cancer and AIDS altogether. Secondly, food will be produced in the city. What's more, the air will be better because plantations are good for the environment.
In conclusion, I think that we need to build farms in skyscrapers in Sao Paulo, and this will be better for everyone: people will walk in the streets and do more exercises everywhere and the air will be cleaner

Public transport should be improve and free? Do you agree?    

At present, many people depend on public transport, which in the majority, is so expensive and restricted to some areas of the city. In my opinion public transport should be improved, free and avaliable in other areas too.
Nowadays in Brazil, many people can’t pay for riding a bus or a subway, let alone to buy a car. What’s more public transport is often delayed and very uncomfortable. Consequently, people can arrive late in their works and be tired. Fhurtermore, some people have headache or backeache because need to be standing for a long time. What’s more public transport nowadays don’t offer a lot of routes for its users.
In conclusion, I believe the governaments need to change public transport in São Paulo fast. That’s because the number of persons who need to use this horrible service ou can’t pay for it is big. And in these situations we need to have empathy and think how we can help.

At present in São Paulo a lot of people use cars to go to work, school, shopping malls etc... But it causes a lot of pollution in the world. In my opinion, bike lanes are necessary in some areas, but not everywhere .
Firstly, the roads in Marginal are very dangerous for cyclists. What's more, the local council needs to spend money to paint the bike lanes and re-plan the streets. Furthermore, in some areas there is no space to park your car because of the bike lanes. What's more, some bike lanes are usually empty because nobody uses them.
In conclusion, I believe  bike lanes in São Paulo are a good idea, but just in some places.]]> 2019-06-19 20:04:32 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368370046 Tom Siqueira https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368374917 Farms should be built in skycrapers in S.P. Do you agree?

At present, there are no farms in São Paulo, so farmers need to transport their food. As a result, the air and the city get polluted. Studies show that 100.000 people died because of air pollution in S.P. from 2006 to 2011. If we construct farms on skycrapers, we're not going to have these problems anymore.
Firstly, there would be no cost of transportation. Secondly no more supermarkets! It's easier to replace food that you need, but don't have it at home. Consequently, everyone will save money, time and have a better life.
In conclusion, if we build farms in big cities, we're saving the planet from global warming and a lot of lives from pollution. Consequently, the life quality of everyone will be much better!]]> 2019-06-19 20:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368374917 Matias Yusta https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368983432 Public transport should be improved and free. Do you agree?

At present, public transport in SP is in bad conditions. To use the bus or the subway you have to pay R$4,00. I believe public transport should be improved and free.
Firstly, public transport has no air conditioning. Consequently, in a long journey, people get sweaty and this bothers others. Imagine, you are going to a meeting and you smell bad! Secondly, public transport in SP costs a lot. Consequently, poor people can't go to places because they don't have money to pay the ticket.
In conclusion, I believe public transport should be improved and free, because I think this is good for our comfort and we can help other persons too.

At present, in some districts in São Paulo there are a lot of bike lanes and in some others, there are none. Consequently, there are many accidents in the city becouse there is no space for the cars. In my opinion, bike lanes should be in fewer places in SP.
Firstly São Paulo is a dangerous city for cyclists because there are always some broken traffic lights. What's more, some people do not respect cyclists because they move slower than cars. Secondly, almost nobody uses bike in São Paulo.Consequently, the bike lanes are usually empty.
In my opinion, more bike lanes are extremly unnecessary in SP. Furthermore, bike lanes are a reason for more accidents and traffic. Therefore, they should be reduced. ]]> 2019-06-24 18:18:18 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368983577 Rosa Vecchia https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368983578 Buy  nothing day should be celebrated in Brazil. Do you agree?

At present, Brazil is in a financial crisis and people don't want to spend their money. But there are people that agree that Buy nothing day shold be celebrated in Brazil but I don't.
Firstly, Buy nothing day is an annual event which is celebrated on the same day as Black Friday and people like to buy a lot of things on this day. Consequently, the store ouners can make money because people get attracted to sales. Furthermore, Buy nothing day is really bad for economy.
In my opinion, I think that in Brazil this event would not work because as we are in a crisis and on Black Friday everything becomes cheaper and so many people enjoy buying a lot. As a result, I think it would be difficult not to buy anything on Black Friday in Brazil.

Nowadays public transport is in bad conditions in SP and to use it you have to pay about R$4,00.
There are people that don't respect public transport and some buses have a lot of trash on the floor and sometimes a bad smell. In my opinion, public transport shoud be clean and improved.
Firstly, most people are poor or just use cars. Consequently, it causes a lot of car pollution. Secondly, some people can´'t afford public transport. As a resoult, a lot of people can´t use it.
In my opinion, public transport has to be improved because they are vandalized. In conclusion, if public transport is better for all, people can respect it too.]]> 2019-06-24 18:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368984078 Lorenzo de Biazzi https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368984908 People should pay for each bag of rubbish they produce. Do you agree?

At present paying for every bag of rubbish you produce is not obligatory in many countries. Nowadays, many people produce rubbish as much as they want.
In my opinion, people do need to pay for their rubbish.
Firstly, countries like Brazil have so much trash in the pavent, beach, sea. What's more, people, animals and a lot of plants are killed everyday because of trash and pollution. Furthermore, rubbish causes pollution, diseases and global warming.
In conclusion, I think if people people need to pay for their rubbish, they will think about what they consume and be aware of the quantity of trash they produce.]]> 2019-06-24 18:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368984908 Fernando Darvas https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368994954 Bike Lanes should be everywhere in SP. Do you agree?

At present, São Paulo has a lot of air pollution. It is so dangerous, that it kills 45 people everyday.
Furthermore, there are incredibly 7 million vehicles in São Paulo! In my opinion, this is an absurd! One way to reduce this number is to ride a bicycle.
Firstly, with more bikes, there are fewer cars. Consequently, it would have less pollution. Secondly, local councils could build more bike lanes in the city. Furthermore, bikes are cheap and you don't have to buy one, you can rent it! 
In my opinion, more bike lanes should be built because the air is so polluted. Consequently, traffic will be reduced and people will be healthier. ]]> 2019-06-24 19:53:38 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368994954 André Salmaso https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996408 The overuse of plastic should be forbidden. Do you agree?

At present, everything comes in packaging. Consequently, a lot of trash is produced: 240 thousands tons only in Brazil everyday!
In my opinion, this has to stop and plastic has to be forbidden.
Firstly, the landfills are filling up quickly. What's more, people don't recycle as much as they could.
Secondly, if the use of plastic is reduced and recycled, consequently it will be safer for wildlife and there will be less trash.
In conclusion, if plastic is forbidden, there will be less trash and people will have a better quality of life. ]]> 2019-06-24 20:07:04 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996408 José Pedro Soares https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996449 Bike lanes should be everywhere In São Paulo. Do you agree?

 At present, riding a bike is popular in SP. In the past, the society thought that riding a bike was something which only poor people used to do it. At the moment, cyclists are taking over the city with their bikes.
  Firstly this is happening because many companies are offering rental bikes in the city, like yellow, grin, Itaú, etc. Consequently, people don't have to own a bike. What's more, bikes help to clean the air pollution in SP because cars emit a lot of carbon dioxide. As a result, with more bikes there are fewer cars, with fewer cars there is less polution.
  In my opinion, riding a bike in SP is a genius idea because bikes help one of the most important problems: air pollution. I believe air pollution will be reduced if people use more bikes. ]]> 2019-06-24 20:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996449 Mariana Pimentel https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996542 The overuse of plastic should be forbidden. Do you agree?

At present, plastic pollutes the environment a lot. We produce so much trash that there are about 20 million catadores in the world. 
In my opinion, we should forbid the overuse of plastic because almost everything comes in a packaging of plastic.
Firstly, people don't recycle their plastic. Secondly, the landfills are filling up very quickly and soon there won't be space to keep the trash.
In conclusion, if we STOP the overuse of plastic, we will have less trash. Consequently, it will be safer for wildlife. I believe that if we dedicate ourselves we can even prevent global warming from happening, we can clean the sea and reduce the deaths of the sea animals.]]> 2019-06-24 20:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368996542 Maria Luiza de Faria https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/368998304 The overuse of plastic should be forbidden. Do you agree? 

At present, everything that we buy comes in a lot of packaging made of plastic. Consequently, we produce a lot of trash. In my opinion, it will be safer for wildlife if things aren't packed in so much plastic and we stop buing many things. 
Firstly, we produce more trash now than in the past. What's more, there are 20 million catadores in the world and there are many people and projects that help to collect all this garbage. But our world still throws a lot of trash in the streets and worse, in the ocean.
Some people care a lot about this issue and try to reduce the trash they produce. For example, making their own toothpaste, not using straws, etc. Consequently, these actions help the environment a lot.
In conclusion, I believe that if things don't come packed in so much plastic, it will be good for the wild life. Futhermore, it would also be good to prevent global warming and the environment destruction.

At present ,Buy Nothing Day is an event when you can't buy anything for 24 hours and it's celebrated in 60 countries, but Brazil doesn't take part in this event. In my opinion, Buy Nothing Day is good for the environment and a super creative challenge!
Firstly, Brazil is a country which produces a lot of trash. Furthermore , there are poor places in many cities where people don't know anything about the environment and recycling.They don't even have have access to regular garbage collection.
Secondly, Buy Nothing Day is an ecologic event which helps you to save money.
In conclusion, Buy Nothing Day not only helps Brazil with the reduction of trash but also can make people think of what they buy.]]> 2019-06-25 16:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369141886 Hannah Akemi https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369142406 Buy nothing day should be celebrated in Brazil. Do you agree?

Nowadays, Buy nothing day is celebrated in 60 countries but Brazil is not one of them. If you don't know, Buy nothing day is a day that you spend 24 hours without buying anything. Surprisingly, it happens on the same day as Black Friday. I think it should be celebrated here too.
Firstly, people buy what they want, not what they really need, Consequently, Brazil produces a lot of trash. Secondly, everything we buy comes in packaging. Furthermore, on Black Friday people get crazy because of the low prices and sales and just buy anything. What's more, we can make people aware abou how much trash they produce and that we can live without a lot of useless stuff.
In conclusion, I believe Buy nothing day would be good and would help the environment here in Brazil.

Nowadays almost all the things we buy are wrapped in plastic. What's more, in Brazil we produce 240,000 tons of trash everyday. Now, think of how much trash the whole world produces. This has to be controlled. In my opinion, the solution is paying for bags of rubbish we produce.
Firstly, if we started to pay for the trash we produce people would be aware and would stop buying things full of packaging. What's more, they would prefer products with less packaging what would make a huge difference. Furthermore, it would help all the life on earth and all the future generations. Secondly, if we did that, people would care more because we wouldn't want to spend all our money on trash bags.
To sum up, we will have a less dirty environment because all products will have less packaging. Consequently, we will help the environment by making it cleaner and thinking before buying something full of packaging and producing less rubbish.  ]]> 2019-06-25 17:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369146822 Alice Cestari https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156740 Buy Nothing Day should be celebrate in Brazil. Do you agree?

At present, Buy Nothing Day is an annual event when people can't buy anything for one day. It started in Canada 24 years ago and 60 countries are involved. In 1997 it was moved to the Friday after American Thanksgiving also called "Black Friday", which is one of the ten busiest shopping days in the United States. In my opinion, Buy Nothing Day should be celebrated in Brazil too. 
Firstly, people produce a lot of trash buying things that they don't need or in a large quantity. Secondly, everything we buy have packaging ; consequently, we produce more rubbish than people that use reusable pots. On Black Friday, just because prices are low, people buy a lot of things they don't need, adding waste in the world, which is completely the opposite of Buy Nothing Day.
In conclusion, it would be better to decrease the rubbish in the world. In my opinion, Buy Nothing Day is not about changing your lifetyle for just one day - it must be a long - lasting relationship or maybe a life changing experience! We want people to commit to less shopping and living longer!]]> 2019-06-25 18:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156740 Felipe Barenco https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156824 Buy Nothing Day should be celebrated in Brazil. Do you agree?

Nowadays, we produce a lot of trash in Brazil. What's more, we buy lots of things that come in packaging. In 60 countries, people are concerned about this problem. They celebrate Buy Nothing Day, an annual event which you don't buy anything for one day. In my opinion, this event should be celebrated in Brazil.
Firstly, these countries could reduce a lot of trash because people are aware of how much trash they produce. What's more, it would help people to save money because people would reduce the amount of things they buy.
In conclusion, if we celebrate this event, it would help the enviroment and the economy because people would rethink what they buy and save money.]]> 2019-06-25 18:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156824 João Alves https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156984 Bike lanes should be everywhere in SP. Do you agree?
 
Nowdays everybody uses a car in SP. Consequently, there are 7 millions cars in this city. In my opinion, bike lanes should be everywhere in SP.
Firstly  many people don't  have a bike and you don't have to own a bike in São paulo, you can rent one at yellow or Itaú. Secondly, if there are bike lanes there are fewer car accidents and if accidents are reduced, people will feel safer on a bike lane.
In conclusion, I think everybody should ride a bike more often. If everyone cooperates, air pollution will be reduced in the world. As a result, it will be better for São Paulo ]]> 2019-06-25 18:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369156984 Fabio Hideki Yamamura https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369159858 Buy Nothing Day should be celebrated in Brazil. Do you agree?

At present, Buy Nothing Day is celebrated in USA, UK, Japan, Spain and more. But not in Brazil. Buy Nothing Day is a holiday when you can't buy anything for 24 hours, it happens on the same day as Black Friday. In my opinion, Buy Nothing Day is good for the people and the environment. 
Firstly, it exists to make people aware that everything you buy produces rubbish. Also, it's a way for people to save money by not buying things that you want but you don't need. However, if Buy Nothing Day happens in Brazil, some consumers and store owners will be angry because the store owners won't make money on Black Friday and some consumers won't enjoy the sales. But at the same time, it will also reduce the trash produced and people will be aware of the trash.
In conclusion, environment is more important than the economy. This is the reason why Buy Nothing Day should be celebrated in Brazil.]]> 2019-06-25 18:47:44 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369159858 Guilherme Camargo https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369320093 Bike lanes should be everywhere in São Paulo. Do you agree? 

Nowadays we have a lot of accidents caused because of the few bike lanes in some neighborhoods.That is terrible. In my opinion, bike lanes should be everywhere in SP.
Firstly, every year 3.4 thousand people die on the streets of Brazil and 13% of the accidents involve bikes and cyclists. Consequently, cyclists have fewer security in the streets. Secondly, if there are more bike lanes people will use more bicycles and this attitude is helpful for the environment.
In conclusion, with more bike lanes we will have fewer deaths and a more safer country. This will be wonderful! Not only for cyclists but for everyone.

At present people don't have enough money to buy their own car, especially in Brazil. Those people work hard everyday but their salary is not good enough. Something that would help those people a lot is public transport for free, also it should be improved a lot. First of all, it is really unfair to all of those people that work hard and in the end of the day just want to go home and chill a little. Also this could help the environment a lot because if public transport was improved and free a lot of people that drive cars would start using public transport. Consequently, there would be less pollution because it would be fewer cars.
In conclusion, in my opinion the goverment should definetely work harder to make public transport a better thing. Consequently, more people would use public transport and have a better quality of life.]]> 2019-06-26 18:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369320697 Ana Xavier https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369471527 Buy Nothing Day should be celebrated in Brazil. Do you agree?

Nowadays, Buy Nothing day is celebrated in 60 countries, such as Canada and USA, but in Brazil people don´t know it exists. Buy Nothing Day is a day that you don´t buy anything during 24h. In my opinion, Buy nothing day should be celebrated in  Brazil.
Firstly, everything we buy have packaging. As a result, Brazil produces a lot of trash. Secondly, if we celebrate this event we'll save money and help the world. Furthermore, on this day you realize that you don´t need to buy things just because they are on sale. 
In conclusion, Buy Nothing Day in Brazil is a good idea because it will make people aware of the conditions of the world, I mean, the great amout of trash that we produce.]]> 2019-06-27 18:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369471527 Lucas Pettenatti https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369473799 Bike lanes should be everywhere. Do you agree?

Nowadays we have a little quantity of bike lanes in SP, so the number of cars in the streets is very high: 20 million people in traffic every day. Consequently this causes a lot of population and, to reduce this problem, in my opinion bike lanes should be everywhere in SP.
Firstly, more bikes will be great for the environment because it can reduce the air polution, and as a result it will reduce the global warming too. Secondly people will do more exercises, consequently people will be more healthier. Furthermore, a bike is cheaper than a car. What's more, you can rent a bike too.
As a result: the number of cars and bike acident can be reduced with morebikes lanes.
In cloncusion: I think bike lanes will be very good for the environmen and for the population of SP.]]> 2019-06-27 18:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/369473799 noo dayanar27 https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/1460639114 eww no]]> 2021-04-26 17:07:55 UTC https://padlet.com/giselyboer/opinionessayg7/wish/1460639114
