The benefits of playing video games

 Video games are often seen as a waste of time and an unhealthy activity, and it partially is, but there are also benefits to playing video games. Depending on the type of video game, they are various different benefits that you could get out of playing such as puzzle games. Many different games have puzzles in them that you have to solve before moving on, this helps with your problem-solving ability. If you are playing a team game, it also helps with your communication and teamwork skills. When playing video games most people choose to sit down, but it doesn't have to always be this way, many people who play for a living walk on a treadmill while playing or just stand up and play. There are many different ways that video games can benefit you, but spending too much time sitting and staring at a screen for long periods are down sides to playing, but these can be regulated by limiting play time.

    I also think there are many benefits within video games. I think it really helps your communication skills even talking to strangers. Many of us will have to communicate a lot in our future profession and I think this will help with that. I like how you gave the example about games having puzzles in them. And the treadmill was an excellent idea because you can be exercising onto top of having a little fun.

Carbon sinks begin to fail

 Carbon sinks are parts of nature where more carbon is absorbed than released. Carbons sinks are responsible for absorbing about half of the carbon released by humans every year. But recently a study has shown that suddenly carbon sinks have been absorbing little to no carbon, the weakest it has been since 2003. This could have drastic effects on the climate which we might have already seen with the recent hurricanes that just blew through Florida. If these carbon sinks don't start functioning again soon, we might be in a load of trouble, because we just can't survive without nature absorbing the carbon that we emit.
