Problem/Solution. Unit 7

Last week we started Unit 7 and it is about writting paragraphs of problems and solutions.

Drought is a big problem in our city, Murcia. The lack of water produces the death of lots of products from our region: tomatoes, oranges, lemons, among others. Moreover, it also affects to all the farmers who live from agriculture. Murcia is the second place more desert in all the earth after the Sahara's desert; this drought promoted by the desert climate and the lack of rains contribute to deteriorate more our economy.

Solutions for this problem are quite difficult to find due to the fact that we can't avoid the lack of rains. Nonetheless, each person is able to help reducing the amount of water consume by himself. For example, when we are brushing our teeth, instead of letting the water tap open we can close it until we finish. Likewise, when we are going to have a shower we should avoid wasting the cold water which goes before the hot water; we can use this cold water for other things like watering our plants.

We have to take care of the environment and, by the same token, we should try to avoid the useless waste of water. Doing this things we can contribute to make a better world.
