Air pollution - JP Ibarra

Describe the issue:
Air pollution happens when the air gets dirty due to smoke from cars, factories, and burning trash. It is harmful to people’s health and the planet. In my city, there is a lot of air pollution due to the sugar mills.
How do you feel about it?
I feel worried because it can make people sick, especially children and the elderly.
What do you think people / government should do to solve the issue?
People should use bikes or public transport. The government should control factories, especially the sugar mills, and plant more trees.

"Poverty" by Laura Cortes

2025-05-14 16:53:36 UTC

- Describe: there is a lot of poverty in Colombia. Many people do not have enough food, jobs, or education. There are many children without schools or a home.

- Feeling: unfortunately poverty is a big problem for our country. I think everyone should live with dignity, it is not fair that some have too much and others have nothing.

-Solutions: the government should give more help to poor families and do not support the rich people and provide more job opportunities.

Robbers

In our city (Cali) there are a lot of robbers that are sometimes also agressive, this is an old problem, and we haven´t pay attention and our goverment doesn´t make ways to safe people from these robbers, like implement more cops or people who control each neighbors to make these more safety, and we can be more relax when we walk around there.

Catalina Ramírez - My opinion social issue

ctln1910 — 2025-05-14 16:59:09 UTC

One of the social problems in my city is insecurity. There is not much security on the streets, and there are frequent thieves that steal objects from people. Sometimes, when they want to steal, they hurt or kill someone.

I feel scared because I can't go out in peace and I always have to be alert to anything that happens around me.
Implement more security on the streets, with more police and cameras on the streets. This also improves the credibility of national security, because not many people trust its operation.

droppings everywhere - By Linda Cadavid

In the tower of my apartment there is a large green area, therefore, the animals in this area go out to leave their droppings in the area.

In addition, I have two cats, one of which goes out to leave his excrement in the green area, but I make sure that he leaves it well covered and far away to avoid bad odors and nonconformities. So I feel that we should all be aware of our pets both in safety and health for themselves.

As a solution to this situation, the owners of each pet should take their pet out with a muzzle and go out with a bag to pick up their excrement in the case of dogs and not allow them to urinate in the flowerpots.
