Global warming "Part one"
I have watched this week some videos and documentaries about global warming. I didn't intend to watch it actually, it just came in front of me, and I was kinda bored; so I watched it. It started with a video with the title " Jakarta is sinking". They were talking about the global warming and water level increase and its effect specially in Jakarta, because it is the most affected place; that's because with water level increase, Jakarta level is decreasing. Interesting ha!, The land level in Jakarta is decreasing, because they depend mainly on pumped water from underground, so the clay layer lose its water and starts to shrink which lower them down. It is serious, that's because while water level increase from 4 to 8 mm per year due to global warming, their level decrease from 4 to 20 cm per year which is much more serious from where i'm standing. To solve this problem the people has to leave their homes, there jobs and even their childhood places behind. It's not a one night job ,as a start the government started building a barrier to hold the water back from hitting homes and give the area some more years in its life, but sooner or later they have to leave. What is very sad about it that it's always the poor people who suffer, the drown areas already has people still live their. The water is in every single place around. Some places have already started using boats to move around homes, but some places haven't reached this point yet. Though, they are walking in water. Some places already abandoned.
One more sad point to add today which is the rich people has their own wall, and live in higher level land, so incase of any water problem leak to that place, the water will go down automatically to the around areas without leaving any serious damage, which is a very good thinking and I like the idea. But why it has to be in the expense of the poor people, why the water drainage has to go down this way. They have been suffering for a while now, and don't need your water to increase their misery. It doesn't have to be this way, to live your life doesn't need to be based on someone else misery.
Nothing more to add today, thanks for reading this, and thanks in advance for the correctins.
Please, put more focus in punctuation specially "commas".

How can I improve and practice my writing skills?
Hello everyone!
Anyone knows how to do that? Because when I looked at it like, " ok, let's see some topics to write about lt. ohh, there is one: write about technology, there is another: write about relationships, friendship,travelling,...etc.".
The problem is i'm out of ideas, write couple of lines and that's what I have, can't think of anything else to add. So, should I read first about the topic and then try to write on my own? Or that could be considered cheating somehow, because that might end writing what I have just read; or should I try to write first and then read some articles to generate some new ideas and back to rewrite again?
I'd like to hear some of your techniques, i'm open for suggestions. Please, don't leave before dropping one!
Thank you all.

I rested for a while then I went to the playground to play football from 9.00 : 11.00 pm , this one was great but unfortunately my friend got hurt in his leg . before that when I was coming to the playground with this friend , he has experience about automation , I told him what happened in my first session and what the instructor said , he told me that he shouldn't start by this way and offered to me to teach me the basics and the first session before I go to the second one . he is really a great friend .
