What do you consider to be the greatest problem facing the world today and what can be done about it?
Nadya Garneva
During my stay at the Times newspaper, I faced up to different aspects of life, which interest people today – from politics and the world peace to the last born baby in Brad Pit and Angelina Joly’s family. It was a great experience inn finding what’s important for people.
It appears that everyone today is on the rush of solving their own, personal problems. That’s why I think what concerns our present the most are the global problems, just because they’re not in the people’s priority list. Still, they remain crucial. I, without hesitation, put the ecological issue first in the world’s greatest problems. It is something everyone of us should be engaged with.
Some of the changes in the ecology are irreversible; others wait to receive our attention. I know that much organization deal with these kinds of matters today. However, truth is unless every person is involved in protecting the environment, nothing can be altered. It is the consciousness of people that must be changed at first. Leave the inner selfishness, quit making higher profit for yourrself and start be environmentally friendly!
Concluding, only when we realize that together can be strong, all the world’s nations, that is when mankind will stop threatening its own existence. I know it is hard, but at least we can try. And let’s begin with saving our Planet.

They are not guilty!
Nadya Garneva
One of the greatest problems that the world of 21st century faces is the decay of the moral values. Easy access to all types of information and freedom with little restrictions influence the adolescents, this part of the society, who is the most vulnerable. As a result, there is an increase in the crimes among youngsters. What has changed and which are the reasons?
Although it is really pity, newspapers are full of actions of little offenders. The range varies – vandalism, graffiti, shoplifting, drug and alcohol abuse and the worst – murder. There is no doubt that nobody was born a criminal. So, what makes these young people break the law? Many people like to blame the mass Medias which produce loads of blood scenes arousing aggression, or the violent computer games. Is this true or not, I leave on your judgment. Nevertheless, truth remains; something provokes or let the youth become miscreants.
However, the most important issue to consider here is how the community can cope with this problem. More restrictions, harder punishments? Where is the balance when having to deal with kids and what is the right deterrent? Sometimes, these children only want to attract attention as they feel lonely in this fast world. Should we impose their parents with a fine or find a psychologist to solve the inner problem? Is the community service enough for them to realize they have done wrong?
The society is only on the half way of protecting our children from evil. First, we have to find the real reasons and then to make the suitable approach to these confused souls. They are not guilty; it’s the world they were born in.

The young criminalists
Being a teenager I’m sick and tired of turning on the T.V. and seeing how people at my age commit a crime. There are some not so big crimes, like shop lifting and vandalism, for example, but in my opinion desperate actions ask for desperate measures.
Some years ago, newspapers and T.V. programs in Bulgaria bursted in reports about how two teenage girls fought with their best friend for a boy. Nothing unusual, you’ll say. No. Until here the scene is definitely nothing that you haven’t heard of before. Well, you might get interested then, when hearing how the two girls coped with the situation. They cut their friend to pieces and put her in the refrigerator. Yes, that’s right! That was what they did. If you ask for my opinion, I consider the two murderers as absent-minded. So, for such crimes, I think, only prison is the answer.
Of course, there are other teenagers, who commit crimes only because they are desperate. Such crimes are shoplifting or stealing somebody’s perce on the street. It is only because they can’t afford buying an object they want a lot. However, these actions are considered as crime, so a publish-useful labor will help, in my opinion. Another crime that can be grounded in the same way is the vandalism. For those teenagers painting some walls cleaning the streets will be enough indignity not to commit the same crime again.
For final, I just want to mention that the young criminalists may come from every family, so do not think “My children can not do that!” and pay enough attention to them. This might be of a great use.
