Hey Jorge!
ReplyDeleteI like your chose of articles and how you also focused on hurricane Dorian and the after effetcs. Your explanation about the every article is short and precise and easy to understand. Though for article 3 I would add that the who could also be the recycling company as they face the problem of not being able to do their job. :)
It hurts to think of all the abandoned animals there are in the Bahamas, and all of those who have already passed. I understand relocating in these conditions especially with family members can be difficult but leaving a helpless animal to die isn't right either. My heart goes out to those suffering in the Bahamas, animals and humans alike. I also liked the choice of the article on not properly recycling. We have to remember it's no good to recycle if we don't do it correctly.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that there a lot of Dorian articles, and I'm glad to know that the victims of Dorian are going to be receiving aid. Opioid crisis is a huge problem and I hope that these fentanyl dealers are caught all the way to the source. It does not matter that they go to jail or not, but whether or not we can stop their operations. Recycling efforts like pizza boxes are exaggerated compared to industrial pollution caused not by consumers, but by producers. The problem starts at a root.
