In nowadays world, some people think that adolescent are more apprehensive about some issues such as environmental problems, animal welfare and poverty of ordinary people compared with previous generations. I believe that elderly people have less knowledge about this type of issues due to basic educations they have learned in school.
First of all, the new generation is more informed about everything due to some reasons such as rich education in schools now days. They are subjects in school to teach them about this problems that are essential in curriculum. For instance, there is environmental study in schools of some countries such as Iran. Students are ought to pass them for starting the higher level of education and this range of compulsions made students more serious to learn about this type of problems in the world.
Secondly, social media is making awareness about ubiquitous problems due to the space that adolescent are more interested in than elderlies or adults. The young people are trying to share videos or photos about this vital issues to make a more knowledgeable generation to help the other people for learning and pay more attention to them. Hence, new generation is more able to understand about this issues due to media space.
To conclude, people say that young people pay more attention to issues that are related to environment, animal species or the financial status of people. I strongly agree with this statement due to some examples like media space and high education in schools in compare with the past.
