Writing Exercise H-23

Question:
Scientists say we eat too much junk food and that is harmful to our health. Some people believe the answer to this question lies with education, but others argue education is useless.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Answer:
It is true that when we eat too much junk food, it will be not good to our health. Most scientists clarify this issue as a fact. Some people know the case and keep their health by reduce the consumption of junk food. Meanwhile, the others do not do the same thing.

Nowadays, government and most scientists or health practitioners try to encourage people to mitigate eat junk food by giving knowledge to everyone for this health important issue. For example, they deliver the message in some articles, news, social media, and also public advertisement. In my opinion, those kind of movement are good things to remain people aware with this fact. Because the message spreads everywhere, many people,  who do not know the fact before, will conscious to their activity in consuming junk food.

In other hand, I argue that the attempt to educate people is not most the effective way to get people attach to this case. Many people seems to still like eat junk food uncontrolled, eventhough they see the possibly following effect. In my view, it depends on people self awareness to become healthy. People need to come out with their own mind and improve self awarness to reduce junk food consumption.

In conclusion, I argue that government, scientists, or health practitioners should keep giving education to people to not consuming junk food in exceed. However, it is obvious that the education will not be effective if people do not come out with their mind in enhance their health awarness.
