Is it better to write to-do lists on paper or on smartphones? In my opinion it is more efficient to write to-do list on smartphone rather than on paper notebook. There are some reasons why I think so. There are many personal organizers, notebooks and diaries which are made of paper on a market today. They are performed in different shapes and sizes, paper types and colors. They are nice outside and well-organized inside. Despite of so many positive aspects of having a paper notebook I give my preference to built-in notebook in my phone because of its cost. The average price for good notebook is 30 dollars and for a notebook on a phone is free of charge. Additionally, I noticed when I use a paper notebook I spend more time to write down things I have to do in a day. I constantly have to open it to take a look at a task, cross it out when I am done with it, and remind myself to do it over and over again during a day. Apparently, it takes more time than writing everything down on a smartphone and setting a notification for each task without getting distracted on these things. What is your choice to keep things organized?

My five minute essay about deforestation. Deforestation is a great problem around the globe. Every day a tree that has been growing for ages gets cut off for commercial purposes. Logging takes place everywhere and it increases every year, extending on more territories in the world. Felling trees has irreversable effect on our planet. First of all, it deteriorates the soil which leads to erosion. Tree roots hold the soil and prevent from washing out the nutrients. Due to erosion the dry soil absorbes all oxygen from water, leaving aquatic creatures without vital source of oxygent. Deforestation leads to increasing pollution and climate change. In order to stablize the situation people need to lessen use of wood and paper. Nowadays there are many companies that go paperless to save trees on the planet. You can get your receipt emailed, your electronic tickets dowloaded on a phone, without printing them out, a tons of books readed right from different electronic devices. There are so many ways to avoid using paper to save trees. In addition, every person should plant at least one tree in their lifetime, educate their children about the importance of recycling, and the habitat of the region where they live. Together we can save our planet from deforestation, and our future generation from suffocation.
