Although no one knows for certain who the original Saint Valentine was, once a year, on February 14,
there is a day in his honor. Some historians believe that the original Saint Valentine was a priest who lived in
the city of Rome about 300 years after the birth of Christ. The emperor of Rome was not a Christian and refused
to allow people to be married in a Christian ceremony. Saint Valentine didn't obey the emperor and performed
many Christian marriages, in spite of the emperor's order. When the Romans found out, they sent Saint
Valentine to prison and later killed him. While his romantic efforts to help many Christians in love cost him his
life, he was honored in his own days. But his story has been mostly forgotten after people have come to
celebrate Valentine's Day as a special time for sweethearts. On Valentine's Day, people express their affections
by sending Valentine cards to friends, families, and boyfriends and girlfriends.

El Niño is a strange weather change. In Spanish, it means the Christ child since it often occurs around
Christmas. It begins in December and continues until March.

Once every four years, the wolrd’s largest weather system over the Pacific Ocean changes. The winds
that usually blow from East to West stop, then blow in the opposite direction. This change makes the ocean
currents reverse. The warm and high water at Indonesia gets colder and drops to a lower level. The coasts of
Southern America receive higher levels of warm ocean water. Terrible rainstorms cause floods in the South

American coastal countries. At the same time, dry weather and low water cause drought in the Western Pacific
nations. The changes in winds and the ocean currents make the climate change. In 1982, thousands of people
lost their lives and thousands of others were left homeless when a terrible El Niño occurred.

Nowadays, scientists nowadays are using satellites to observe the atmosphere and the ocean so as to
predict what will happen and prevent the death and destruction.

Air pollution is a cause of ill health in human beings. In a lot of countries there are laws limiting the amount
of smoke which factories can produce. Although there isn’t enough information on the effects of smoke in the

produces a poisonous gas which often collects in busy streets surrounded by high buildings. Children who live
in areas where there is a lot of lead in the atmosphere cannot think as quickly as other children and are clumsy

when they use their hands.

There are other long term effects of pollution. If the gases in the atmosphere continue to increase, the earth’s
