Baptism in Mexico To begin with, in Mexico like in other countries for catholic people is really important the “baptism”. Therefore, it has a unique religious aspect in the society, because it purifies the soul of kids. The first step is reserve a mass in the parish. The ceremony usually it’s in groups, you also have to pay about 200 pesos in order to reserve it. Secondly, godparents need to attend to the pre-Baptism meeting, it is generally to prepare them for this hard responsibility. The event is very interesting and informative so, they can resolve all the questions about the religion or maybe about the ceremony. In addition, there’s the ceremony part. It’s often celebrate on Saturdays; the mass lasts about 1 hour and half and it’s really touching, it has three important parts: 1-Reception: is when children receive their names for first time in the religious community. 2-Liturgy of the word: it’s about to apply oil in the front to every child in order to protect them of bad things. 3- Celebration of the sacrament: it’s the most important moment, the baptism water is blessed and children finish with that process. Last but not least, when the ceremony finish the Godparent winnow “el bolo” to all the kids present there. Then parents and godparents offer a party, it could be a family party or something bigger with more acquaintances.

Air pollution Nowadays, it is easy to notice that air pollution has increased potentially bringing about some diseases and climate change. As it is known, the main cause is man and if everyone wants a change they have to work on it now. To begin with, some measures have to be taken regarding the traffic in the city centre. A useful suggestion would be to introduce to the government a park and ride scheme; in this way, the city centre would have fewer cars because of the better circulation the streets would acquire. Secondly, the fabrics that are near the city have been presenting lots of troubles polluting every day a little more. It would be a good idea if an industrial park was created; this would keep less smoke over the city and maintain the respiratory health of the citizens in a favourable way. Last but not least, due to the fact that people are making huge amounts of rubbish daily, some run into the idea of burning it. It would help if a recycle scheme was introduced to the public; the result of doing this would be having less burnt rubbish smoke that affects the city’s environment and damages the ozone layer. All in all, people should realize that the planet is not going to last for ever and neither do they. Yet, working together they could help to expand the durability of the earth and then avoid the large number of phenomenons that have affected the society lately.
