ikhakhanova Regulating Cosmetic Surgeries 1 Apr 23 2012, 5:20 PM EDT by KimDao

The main idea of my topic is "nothing bad if people do cosmetic surgeries" , but some rules have to be regulated by the low. One of these rules has to regulate possibilities of cosmetic surgeries for people under 18, the second- for people with any psychological problems. In other cases, I respect people, who try to correct and minimize any bad influences for their bodies, try to make their bodies clean and good looking

tracykhris1703 Pollution and What We Should Do 5 Apr 23 2012, 5:07 PM EDT by KimDao
Thread started: Apr 17 2012, 6:55 PM EDT  Watch
The topic of my essay is pollution in the world. Two of the mains points in my argument are: Instead of using cars, we should choose to walk or ride a bicycle whenever possible. With this eco-friendly practice, we will also be healthier and happier by staying fit. Every time we go grocery shopping, we should bring our own cloth bags and use them instead of using the plastic bags.
