spread the love doom and gloom couldn't care less

Cities debate: teenagers talk London, Johannesburg, and Rio Carlene Thomas-Bailey

theguardian.com, Wednesday 29 January 2014 08.00 GMT JOHANNESBURG

Monky Sekwala (16), Soweto – South Africa. I don’t really like Soweto, because there are no things for young people. There should be more entertainment and libraries; you have to walk a long distance to get to a library. I would like more parks too, for young people to go to. Also in my area you have to sit and wait a long time for services at the local clinic. I prefer central Johannesburg because it has more entertainment, many lights – it’s very busy, lots of businesses, more shops, more hotels, more tourists. LONDON

Yara Shaikh (19), London – England. In Camberwell there are so many areas that are renovating flats; there is a lot of construction. I feel like the area doesn’t look pretty. More lights, more decoration would be nice. When I go to areas like Chelsea and there is renovation going on, they always have lovely illustrated or painted covers, but in my neighbourhood all you see is the grey structures. I feel that whoever comes up with the ideas for the covers in creative ways needs to spread

the love. If your area looks pretty, you feel happier and have more pride in looking after it, but if it looks all doom and gloom you couldn’t care less. RIO DE JANEIRO

Raíssa Farias (18), Rio de Janeiro – Brazil. My neighbourhood is one of the places in Rio that still has lots of trees. But nobody cares about recycling, people are not really educated for that. Some people use bikes, but there are a lot of cars. I really care about the environment — but everything about the environment and the danger of not taking care of it doesn’t feel like a necessity, so nobody cares at all. Not only the children disregard it, but the adults too.

Most of my friends have cell phones. I do too, but I only got my first one when I was 13 because my parents are very strict. They believe you need to be mature to get a cell phone. When I turned 15, I got a bigger one, a smartphone. When I’m older, they say I can get a computer for my studies. Many kids in my area have computers. Our parents are becoming more interested in technology because we love it. Apps, social networks and free SMS are better than games because they connect us to the world. It’s easier to socialize now because using these apps is cheaper than calling from our phones.
