conscience. Examples of activities that have been criminalized on religious grounds include alcohol-consumption (prohibition), abortion and stem cell research. In various historical and present-day societies institutionalized religions have established systems of earthly justice which punish crimes against the divine will and specific devotional, organizational and other rules under specific codes, such as Islamic sharia or Roman Catholic canon law. Homelessness Homelessness is the condition and social category of people who lack housing, because they cannot afford, or are otherwise unable to maintain, regular, safe, and adequate shelter. The term "homelessness" may also include people whose primary nighttime residence is in a homeless shelter, in an institution that provides a temporary residence for individuals intended to be institutionalized, or in a public or private place not designed for use as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings

Social Problems Homelessness A person and families are considered homeless, if they live outdoors without shelter ( ) , temporarily housed in hostels, night shelters , institutions such as psychiatric hospitals, and those temporarily () accommodated () by relatives or friends. Persons living in poverty are most at risk of becoming homeless , and demographic groups who are more likely to experience poverty are also more likely to experience homelessness . Homelessness usually increases during periods of economic recession () and rising unemployment, when people can no longer afford ( ) housing, and governments cut down public housing expenses. Inadequate shelter or housing creates conditions that promote disease.

Housing

Owning was made easier by government policies which offered people various kinds of financial assistance to help them do so. There are organizations which run their properties like a business but are obliged to run them for social benefit. Homelessness Number s of people who have nowhere to live vary, but at the present time they probably stand between a quarter and a half million. All reasons amout to the simple fact that there isnt enough affordable accommodation for them. Most homeless families find temporary accomodation in boarding houses. Some people find even more temporary shelter in hostels for the homeless. Some just live on the streets. In many cases, the homeless are those with personal problems which make it difficult for them to settle down. In some cases, they are peple who simply dont want to settle down. The future More an more people want to live on their own or in small families. Millions of new homes will need to be built in the next decade or so.

HOUSE AND HOME tööleht

For most British people having their own garden is a must. Smaller houses usually have both a front and back garden with a neat lawn and flowerbeds. It is not unusual for an Englishman’s garden to cover only 3 or 4 sq m in front of the house. It is also possible to grow flowers and vegetables on an allotment – a piece of land rented for a low price from the local council. Another alternative is flower-boxes, attached to the windows or hanging flower-pots. Britain has many homeless people (280,000 as of 2019) who have to or choose to sleep outdoors or in temporary hostels. They also have their own magazine, the Big Issue, which talks about the problems of living in the streets. The Big Issue magazine currently sells over 83,000 copies in the UK every week. Vendors buy The Big Issue magazine for £1.25 and sell it for £2.50, meaning each seller is a micro-entrepreneur who is working, not begging

THE VALUE OF THINGS VS THE PRICE OF THINGS

They can not miss those expensive things, because they never had these things. I think people with less things and more friends and family love, are happier, because they have the time to spend time with them. People with a lot of things are devoting their time to take care of the things and they completely forget about people they love. For example poor people, they respect other human beings more than rich people. I think it is that way, because poor or homeless people know how it is to be poor and they value people, who are a little bit better than them. Rich ones already know that they are better than anyone. Money is not the most valuable thing on earth. There is saying that says: "Buy Experiences, Not Things". That means, that the most valuable things in life are memories. If you are old, the things you have bought are broken or lost, but memories can not be removed from your head. Some people travel a lot in their

suppliers. By 1990, just one year after launching in the USA, there were 2,500 applications for a franchise, with demand for The Body Shop® products ever-growing, driven by expansion which saw the company trading in 39 countries within just fourteen years after the opening of the very first shop! In 1990 The Body Shop Foundation was established, a charity which funds human rights and environmental protection groups. The Big Issue paper for homeless people, which began as a The Body Shop Foundation project, was launched in 1991. By 1998 its success saw The Body Shop Foundation part-funding the launch of the The Big Issue stateside, in Los Angeles. The New Academy of Business was established in 1995, as an initiative by Anita Roddick. This innovative management degree addressing social, environmental and moral issues is run at The University of Bath, in England. In 1993 the Company launched an international high-profile campaign to raise

Essee "Homelessness"

We live in a cruel world where people only think about themselves. There are extremely few people who care about homeless people even though homelessness has greatly increased over the past decade. But why is that so? Are they worse than us? As Mike Yakonski once said: “Sometimes it's easy to walk by because we know we can't change someone's whole life in a single afternoon. But what we fail to realize it that simple kindness can go a long way toward encouraging someone who is stuck in a desolate place.” I can relate to that fairly well because everyday i see homeless people and it makes me extremely sad
