What is adolescence?

Adolescence is the period between childhood and adulthood. People of every background
and of every color go through this. Adolescence is something that, when we go through it,
well make us the person that we are to become. All adolescence goes through points in
those few years that will decide if they will go to school when they graduate. Adolescence
has a hard time because of the things that are going through. Adolescence is difficult. 
     

Adolescence facing drugs and alcohol issues has changed in the past thirty years. Thirty
years ago, drugs were something that older people never talked about and nor did they ever
see. Alcohol was small thing that the good people such as churchgoers never touched, but
they preached about it. Every town has a town drunk. In today’s society adolescence see
alcohol and drugs at least once a day or more. Thirty years ago drugs were a little harder to
find. Adolescence did not have access at the time. Adolescence today face more peer
pressure to where now it is illegal and thirty years ago it was legal and not a problem. 
     

Other issues that have affected adolescence today are work and school issues.
Adolescence facing work and school issues have changed in the past thirty years.
Adolescence did not have to finish school. Today if adolescence drops out of school he or
she, one, will lose their drivers license and, two; will not be able to get a job. Adolescence
now days face harder restrictions when going to school. For example, students must do and
pass the subject in order to more on be able to keep their license or keep a job.
Adolescence has to learn quicker now than thirty years ago, because now we learn using a
computer and most of what we do learn is computer based. 
    

 Adolescents face growing up for the adult world. Thirty years ago adolescence did not have
to have an education so all the really wanted was to go to work. Thirty years ago
adolescence thought that they only needed a small amount of education. Today
adolescence has to have and education in order to have a good job. 
     If you see an adolescence, please, don’t be hard on them because think of what they
have to go through every day. Think about it if you were in there shoes. Think about some
of the issues that were facing you when you were an adolescence such as work, school,
drugs, alcohol, and other things like that. This part of life is not the easiest. 
Global Warming occurs as a result of increased concentration of greenhouse gases in
theatmosphere. The main greenhouse gases are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous
oxide and ozone. These gases do now allow all the radiations from the Earth to escape back info
space. This is known as the Greenhouse Effect. This trapped radiation or heat helps to keep the
Earth at a constant temperature. Greenhouse effect is thus very important to main the temperature
of the Earth at a habitable level.

Over the past few 100 years, human have been burning trees and fissile fuels, thereby releasing
millions of tones of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The increased level of carbon dioxide in
theatmosphere has caused the temperature of the Earth to rise. This, in turn, causes more water to
evaporate into the atmosphere. Water vapor is also very good at absorbing heat. This cause the
Earth’s atmosphere to become even warmer. Scientist has called this effect ‘Global Warming’. They
have warned that Global Warming could shift rainfall patterns, raise the sea level and alter the
ecological balance.
