Using e-books or paper books

In these days, it has been noticed that most people prefer to read books from their electronic devices rathar than from physical books. I believe that this habit has more drawbacks than benefits, especially, from health perspective. Due to the widespread of electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets, it has become popular to use these for reading books. Although, there are some who suggest that reading from devices is easier than holding a book in their hands, this has a negative impact on their health. One of those effects is the brightness of these screens and its impact on the eyes. For example, in the recent years, there has been many studies which demonstrate these destructive impacts on our health. Therefore, using phones or computers to read books can cause many problems. On the other hand, reading physical books means that the exposure to the light from the mobile screen is completely eleminated. Despite that some people say that reading e-books is more environmental friendly, as the traditional books will be wasted, it is not true. This is because, nowadays, people can share books between each other online. That is, if someone finishes reading a book, he/she can share it with others who might be interested in reading it, instead of throwing it away. For instance, there are many websites as well as social media groups where many people use to share their reviews on certain books and exchange them with the others. In conclusion, although there are some people who prefer reading e-books due to easiness and environmental concerns compared with physical books, but this has a negative impact on their health, and the raised concerns can be reduced by sharing the used books with others.
