The true history of seven heavens and the eighth that it's the Earth

For most people on this planet, the Solar Cycle is like talking about the sex of Martians. Science in general is perceived as something alien to our world, even though in reality all of our technology, medicine, and in short, everything we know today as a way of life, is the result of years of effort in this field. Apart from material progress, science sheds light on the world around us; this natural world that we consider ourselves to be separate from, but on which our lives depend . Solar flare in X ray The Sun is not just for tanning and powering photovoltaic cells. As we learn in school, it is the source of life for plants, which in turn provide us (and our livestock) with food, and it also powers our weather. Of course, it is not expected that people know everything about what the Sun does, but each sneeze of the star should be seen as something more important than a scientific curiosity or an apocalyptic headline. Today, in the midst of climate change, it is important to know tha...

Biodiversity is not something static unless the consequence of birth and extinction of species due the external pressure. The inaction of the last 30 years on climate change has brought us to the brink of disaster. Wildfires, severe droughts, severe storms or rising seawater temperatures; they are putting our society on the brink of the precipice. But the destruction that climate change is causing is also affecting ecosystems; which, pressured by pollution, the expansion of agriculture, and the general growth of mankind, are putting nature in a critical position. Today, the constant destruction of natural habitats that were preserved in the distance is a matter of concern. Humanity has reached every corner of the globe, both land and sea, and is just thinking about how to take advantage of it. The planet no longer has sanctuaries, even natural parks or biosphere reserves declared by the United Nations are already threatened by some project to exploit the resources they have. The blindn...

This year 2020 has been an atypical year. It’s the year of the pandemic that’s not unusual in human history; in fact it happens more or less every 100 years. What has been unusual is the treatment: instead of letting the natural selection, that the immune systems adapt (as they end up doing) and that the mutations of the same virus lower its lethality (this is what happens to the virus, for survive virus is not interested to kill its host); for the first time it has been decided to fight the virus. Nothing went well . Many people have lost their lives, others their way of life. It said: crises bring out the best in everyone. Unfortunately this has shown that this isn’t true. To the efforts and dedication that a small part of the population has done, the rest we have responded with protests and complaints; the five minutes of daily applause do not make up for the demonstrated lack of collective responsibility. Each claim, complaint or denunciation we could read implicitly "only f...

Mankind pain an epidemic every century. This is something that we can’t avoid because natural selection works in all living beings. People have to choose between die of illness and die of hunger. Usually ignorant prefers to die of illness because thinks it selves immune. Unfortunately poor chooses the same even knows that is the target of illness. The Andromeda Strain is a novel written by Michael Crichton in 1969, where relates the efforts of a team of scientists investigating the outbreak of a deadly extraterrestrial microorganism. Novel ends well because microorganism mutes to inoffensive and the threat finished. Luckily the alien entrance has an invention but the protocol showed in the history is very likely as protocols proposed if this case could happen. Michael Crichton cheats a little; the mutation doesn’t work like he wrote, if not both organism, the deadly and the mutation, live together; note the mutation eats the plastic from the laboratory protections, so both a...

This variant of the cold is of simple infection as any cold and almost dangerous as the flu. A simple virus is showing us the door of dystopia, when in fact the only thing that shows is the fragility of existence and human power A widespread film genre is that of major catastrophes. They are usually horror films with impossible solution but one that is at the last moment and miraculously. Much of its success is usually the end, which reaffirms human capacity to solve problems as long as we turn to the best human values: solidarity, unity of action and collaboration. In the end these films are an apology of the human spirit and the viewer leaves the cinema with the pride of to be of own species, this is the key to success. One such catastrophe is pandemics. The possible scenarios are diverse but the plot is usually very similar: an ultra-lethal virus which for human reasons (terrorism, neglect, conspiracies ...) overflows the healthcare services and there is no remedy; spr...

In 1997 after two years of negotiations some countries signed the climate protocol in the third climate summit in Kyoto. Twenty-two summits after the ridiculous advances fade away like the fog. In the time of climate disasters denial is strong as never and carbon industry grows desperately. The title is the name give for Donald Trump to the climate activist. Despite we are far to the doom, really doom is getting closer to us every day. However economy is turn its eyes and insists to give the same advices about how we are to tackle the future. Economy is kidnapped by the money and these at the same time by the oil. The prophets can be annoying when say that you wouldn’t listen, especially if you know that they are right . The storm is here Why economy doesn’t want to listen to the prophets? This is the real question of the climate mess. If a new virus takes prominence, world make all the necessary measures to front the illness; in the other way endemic illness is hi...
