есе на тему "The environment we live in will change dramatically in the next 50 years."

"Я хочу, чтобы выл ветер"

I finally turned 15 years old! I wasn't sure what the day would bring,
so I rolled out of bed with more enthusiasm than usual to prepare for
school and... my birthday party! I floated through my classes as if in a
dream and let my mind wander, thinking about all of the possible
birthday surprises. When I got home, I was greeted by a brand new red
motorbike.
My dad and I have been riding mountain bikes and
motorbikes together for as long as I can remember, but before this bike,
I had never been able to ride beside my father as an equal. But getting
my own bike was that turning point. It was a coming of age gift, and my
father's acknowledgment that I was growing up.
The weekend after my
birthday my dad and I took our bikes to a place where we could ride.
That day I learned a lot in between the riding and falling and even some
breaking of motorbike parts. I can still remember the
look on my
dad's face the first time I started up my bike. Since then we have
shared something not many fathers and daughters are lucky enough to
have. I will be forever grateful for the bond between my dad and me, and
it is no surprise he feels the same way about me.

and better medical care the average person will live to 90 or 100 instead of 70 and 75 like today. When the human genome is decoded, we'll probably live up to 150. Incurable diseases will be cured and "bad" genes replaced.
But that's tomorrow. And today, we continue to stuff ourselves with fast food — chips and pizzas, hamburgers and hot dogs. We are always in a hurry.
We have no time to enjoy a home-cooked dinner with family and friends. We want to eat now and we want to eat fast.
What is tasty is not always healthy. Doctors say that chips and pizzas are fattening, cola spoils our teeth and coffee shortens our lives.
If we eat too much, we'll become obese, and obesity leads to heart disease, diabetes and other serious illnesses. But the world today is getting fatter and fatter. America is the world's leader in obesity, but Europe is quickly catching up.
Lack of exercise is another serious problem. We spend hours in front of our computers and TV-sets. Few of us do morning exercises. We walk less, because we prefer to use cars or public transport.
Research shows, however, that young people who don't take enough exercise often suffer from heart attacks.
It's common knowledge that smoking and drinking can shorten our lives dramatically. Cigarette-smoking, for example, kills about 3 million people every year. Many of them die from lung cancer. Some aren't even smokers. They are people who live or work with heavy smokers.
Yet many young people smoke and drink. Why? One answer is that tobacco and drinks companies invest enormous sums of money in advertising their products. For them cigarettes and alcoholic drinks mean money. For us they mean disease and even death.
We all know that the healthier we are, the better we feel. The better we feel, the longer we live. So why not take care of ourselves?
