THE WEATHER

Today I choose to talk about the weather in Guatemala. In Guatemala we have some days of extremely hot in the country but they are also some days of cold weather, also cloudy days, some rainy days and all of these changes of weather is because in Guatemala we have four stages, that’s why Guatemala is called ‘The country of eternal spring’.

This can be made because of the trees and all the plants that give fresh air to the country, but these changes of weather can also depend on which place you are, it varies because of the high, or on how close to the beach you are. If you are like in a mountain that is high you may feel cold because of the high, so the weather in this mountain it will always be colder than if you are in the city of Guatemala. If you are closer to the coasts of Guatemala you can feel the air like hot and of course it would be hotter over there. But this depends in which department of Guatemala you are.

This climate helps a lot of people who works in the agriculture. Because in Guatemala the climate is perfect to harvest, the people who practice this knows a lot about the weather because they know the time in which they can start harvesting and they are sure they are not wasting his time, they know that everything they plant it would grows completely. But in 2010 year the agricultures start harvesting and all was going great but in Guatemala stop raining and the people didn´t have water to give to the plants so all of his plants starts dying and they loose of his work and the plantation were going up on the prices. They lost all his fruits and vegetables there were harvesting because of this thing that was happening in Guatemala.

Also some people who harvest lost part of his plantation because the people in Guatemala it is not well educated and they use to steal things. For example the corn, this is one of the main things they stole because it is easier to catch. I can said this because I like to go ride motorcycles with my uncle and cousins and we can see that this happens a lot in the mountains because the people didn´t take care of his plantation. They leave his plantation, and there is no persons seeing or taking care about all of his own things.

In my opinion if I had to chose between living in a place of hot weather or a place of cold weather. I will always choose to live in a place in which the weather is like cold but not so cold. Because I prefer to be there walking on the streets only with a sweater than being there walking with a los of hot and you feel all sweaty and kind of sticky because of the sweaty. So in my opinion Guatemala is a place in which I like to live but the only thing I don´t like is those days that are extremely hot at school andyou start getting sweaty, those days I really don’t like. And the cold weather we feel when we are in the last months of the year for example, on November or December those two months are so cool because you can be outside only with a jacket and you feel well without getting sweaty and the climate we are surround on those months is good.

Also in Guatemala for the last three years the contamination starts growing a lot, so some of this hot days I mention before are because of this problem of the contamination because the ozone layer gets so dirty that it catch the oxygen and we feel like kind of locked with the hot in those days. Also the contamination of a country it could bring you some problems when you are breathing, or this may also affects you lungs.

As  a conclusion I can said that is better to live in a place that is kind of free of contamination and that is cold but not so cold, and also some days of hot weather would be perfect. So I´m happy about living in Guatemala, the only thing I would really like to change is the contamination in this country.
