The increasing number of foreign players is a threat to English Football

With the number of foreign players in English football clubs increasing over the years, it can be worrying for the future of English football itself. This caused by the number of foreign players in the clubs that are now overlapping the number of England born players. While foreign players can also give some positive effects in English football, their presence in English football can stifle the potentials of those local born football players thus affecting England as a national team. As the FA’s authority, Sir Trevor Booking quoted saying on BBC news (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/6975955.stm) that, “the growing number of foreign players in the Premier League is depriving domestic talent of first-team football and that is having a detrimental effect on England's chances of challenging at major tournaments.” The FA and FIFA would have to consider this issue more seriously, foreign players in English football clubs can be acceptable as long as they employ at least the same amount of local players in the squad.

The Effects of Noise Pollution

Noise pollution has harm effects on human’s health and earth.As a result of noise pollution is the reduction of usable habitat, which led to extincion of endangered species. Due to noise pollution, it killed certain species of beached whales. Furthermore, as a matter of fact, noise pollution causes annoyance and aggression,hypertension,high stress levels,tinnitus, and sleep disturbances on people. A study in 2005 by Spanish researchers found that in urban areas households are willing to pay approximately four Euros per decibel per year for noise reduction. Another consequences of high noise level pollution are an increase in blood pressure, creates coronary artery disease, and even hearing loss. For example,Maaban tribesmen, who were insignificantly exposed to transportation or industrial noise, to a typical U.S. population showed that chronic exposure to moderately high levels of environmental noise contributes to hearing loss (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_pollution#Human_health_effects). The evidences above suggest that noise pollution has become dangerous problem both for earth’s environment and humans.
