To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?
In the last decades the idea of banning extreme and dangerous sports such as sky diving, rock climbing and paragliding has been widely discussed.
While some people argue there should no be limitations to practice those activities, I strongly believe that in order to limit catastrophic consequences derived from these sports, age restrictions, training courses and safety measures should be implemented .
Although jumping out airplanes and opening the parachute while flying is considered thrilling and exciting, disastrous accidents may happen if there is an equipment failure. For instance, the ” Australian Extreme Sport Association” has released a study conducted over the last 10 years that shows shocking results. More that 5% of extreme sport lovers suffered from an injury and the severity of it ranged from head trauma, spinal injury and paralysis. Therefore, due the high volume of accidents, strict safety measures should be established and enforced.
Additionally, if extreme sports are accessible to a wider audience, teenagers may want to experience it. Minors, in particular, may not fully understand the disastrous implications of participating in such activities and the way their life may be negatively impacted. In Sweden , for example, in order to practice skydiving participants need to be at least 18 years old and need to have successfully passed an intense training course. Consequently, dangerous sports should be limited to well trained participants able to understand both risks and consequences.
To conclude, I would like to reiterate that extreme sports should be targeting a specific, well trained, and conscious group of adventure lovers. A key element to be considered is the capacity of people to make appropriate decisions knowing the life implications that may derive from them.
The pie charts describe car ownership in 1999 in England and in 1995 in Bromland respectively. While the bar chart provides information on sales of VW cars in England and Scotland from 1990 to 1998.
It is clearly visible that in both pie charts the largest share belongs to cars purchased with just over 50% in England and more than 70% in Bromland respectively. Car leasing has been at only 15% in 1995 but it doubled to more than 30% by 1999. Interestingly car sharing represents one fifth of the total share in 1995 and decreased to less than one sixth in 1999.
According to the bar chart, the majority of cars were purchased in Scotland between 1990 and 1996, while in the last two given years the trend changed significantly. In fact, in 1997 and 1998 both countries reached almost the same amounts of units sold (around 15,000 for both years).
Overall the number of car ownership and car sharing had decreased from 1995 to 1999 while car leasing has doubled. Also a higher amount of car sales toke place in England with the exception of 1997 and 1998 that had similar figures.
