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

Published in Linkedin:   2014 the hottest year than ever  (30/12/14) Cretaceous was an age which everybody imagines as a global tropical world. In fact and long terms is true, but in this long period it could happen more climates. However there was very quiet period, always we compare with current time; and it has singularities that it goes away to the ideal tropical climate. Cetaceous was hot; but ironically tropics no more than current, while polar seas (there wasn’t any continent in there) was as warmed current areas. Unlike today Cretaceous climate haven’t great differences in relation to latitude, the heat was efficiently transported to the poles by the oceans. Planet hasn’t a significate temperature gradient, so winds was only an anecdote, and it means that more part of land emerge (without continental ice of Antarctica level sea was more of 200 meters higher than today, The great flood ) was a desert (read The day after Tomorrow where explain little the importance of distr

In current year I don’t want to write any Christmas Post, because some unfortunately circumstances added at I don’t like too much Christmas, left in blank my mind, every time that I sat in front the computer. Yes December 24 is late to write but until yesterday I hadn’t enough strong to write how I feel now. But I made a small revision to these celebrations mean eliminating the religious connotations. These celebrations are an end of year stock of the successes and failures that we harvest; while we entering a new year with hope for the days that we sell. To make it we come back to the family, seeking the roots because they give us strength, although five minutes thinking " please someone remove me here". We need this goal to confirm where our lives go (although this course for many in these days is the drift). So I wish you: A good reunion with origin (Merry Christmas) and a better 2015 Attached as a postcard presentation, which at the moment is therefore un

Published in Linkedin: Coal, a drug for mankind very difficult to leave (28/11/2014) If someone asks for jobs with less future, probably in all lists would write the coal mining . Coal has historically generated many jobs, however mechanization has been declining number of employers; but in many parts of the developing world is still mining, sometimes in border on slavery, which is feeding (bad eating to be exact) many people from earliest childhood. Now a danger is hovering over this form of living. Although coal will remain nearly 300-year to explode with current consumption, but the need to reduce CO 2 emissions questions the continuity of this mining. Coal was the engine of the Industrial Revolution . The steam machines from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries moved thanks to black stones that we could burn. But the twentieth century discovered a new fuel: the Oil , which was more manageable, easy to get and it has more potential uses. Later he appeared a third co

Published in Linkedit: Is fresh water ending in the World? No, but we've got problems Current humanity has got enough knowledge and technical to convert salt water into fresh water. Global water doesn’t change its amount, and sea water we can convert in continental water as we want. But there is a little problem: is expensive. Water is the most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust, as I said in “ Water ”, which is the why that life is based on it, summarize to have other physic-chemical properties that make it unique, which makes it invaluable; although its abundance relegates it to have a residual value. Brazil somewhat smaller than Europe, and it has a patchwork of climates, however its position in Ecuador it has got a rainforest in main part of its territory, yet there are also deserts. The Brazilian population lives mainly on the coast with high densities of population, but they haven't water problems because they live so close to a forest. Until today , the

Historically low price of energy reduces production costs especially with an extremely tech world as the current. But now the paradigm is completely contrary , the financial economy governs the world relegating industry and agriculture to a second order. Today buy and sell moves the world not produce. Oil is one of the more products that financial markets buy and sell, and it mean that follows the marked rules in terms of price. But oil had an artificial price. When created OPEC, it was grouping major countries which had greater oil reserves by the standards of that time; it created a Mega Dumping that killed the oil market, because if the price down production stopped and this turned up. Since the 70s the world energy economy has been captive to the decisions of these countries. Although now it's different, most of

Sea level rises slowly as glaciers melt threatening the population Do not be deceived . A bad summer does not mean that global warming has stopped. In fact experienced bad weather, especially in winter, is largely the result of increased atmospheric activity caused by a higher amount of energy. In the same way that a hot summer does not mean Global Warming, it is very cold in winter nor does it mean it will start an ice age: Climate Change is a long process, but not necessarily slows . NY under sea This winter there was a Polar Vortex that struck northern America, and Antarctic takes an extent never seen; but the average global temperature has continued to grow , which refutes those who spoke about the stop of Global Warming. This warming is melting, not only Arctic Icecap, but is melding also all the continental glaciers. Photographic evidence more observation from satellites leave no doubt. And the continental water just melts inexorably into the sea. The ocean level r

The Windmill has become part of the passage, but it can also become a memory Don Quixote fought to the windmills in the sixteenth century. The wind has been joining to the wood burning one of main human sources of energy. Not long ago, and even today in a sportsmanlike manner, our ships crossing the seas by the wind; and in everywhere we can find mills which are grinding grain or pumping water. So history offers us a way to replacement the fossil power station in front of the disaster of global warming; but has several drawbacks as usual with all renewable energies, hence the difficulty imposed on fossil fuels. When I wrote “ We must change the way we see energy ” I had exposed the difficulty of supply our demand, not only amount of energy and power but punctual peak of them. Another problem is an eco-landscape. The mills are huge blades that rotate at speed relatively slow but relentless with birds that cross the large area covered by them; may appear to be somewhat ane

Every people in every time made this question when they see the majesty of night sky. The answer is No . Our Galaxy ( Milky Way ) has 200.000.000.000 stars and is sure that exist more planets as our where there are life. Other thing is if these planets have intelligent life, if these intelligent lives have a technological civilization, and technological civilizations have technologies compatible with ours.  We aren’t alone that is sure, but has our neighbors anytime visited us? More people believe that is true and this is happening now. They think to have conclusive proves of this fact, but science community say these aren’t valid and today officially there aren’t evidence of extraterrestrial are coming now or they were coming before. We would like that a more intelligent people than us, come to earth to solve our problems. ET is the new god who is different than traditional in it lives in the same dimension to us. Today society is finding new referents and new transcend

People talk a lot, but they made less. Time is passing and world is turning without stopping and waiting what we decides to do. Weather is every day more extremely, nature is deteriorating faster and number of persons in the world is growing rapidly. But nobody do something to arrange the trouble (read  Trying to understand Warsaw ) . But could we do something really? This is a very difficult question to answer. First we have facts in front us but what is happening really isn’t so clear; because in one way there are a lot of analyses which are showing many kinds of scenarios and in other way facts are seeing as own prejudices says they would be. Second there are more interest playing in climate fight: we have whole industry of fossil which doesn’t want to lose this lucrative business , but other industries which have invested millions in facilities that needs oil or coal (power companies i.e.), and we must not forget the main industry of this world: financial economy which is

Surely many people have heard of the Butterfly Effect . Behind this name we find the formulation of the theory of chaos. After the discovery that the universe has a story ( Big Bang ) and we certainly two key theories of physics ( quantum and relativity ) the formulation of the unpredictability of events that changed the conception of our world now. We are facing a revolution totally ignored by majority of the population, which is easier to think about God's plans, conspiracies and other fantasies when he sees the events of our day; but the reality is that man proposes and random features . Pierre Simon de Laplace certainly was one of the key figures in the scientific worldview to the early twentieth century. He was defending that the laws of physics were above the divine will, he maintained that the Causal Determinism was the thread which moved events. The principle of Causal Determinism postulates that any outcome is due to a cause and this is the previous state

Tyrell Corporation: more human than human Blade Runner is a 1982 film based on the novel " Do Androids dream of electric sheep? " by Philip K. Dick ; it discusses about artificial human (completely built by man) of biological consciousness caught over the years. This artificial human with better performance than natural ones, had become a hazard by its creators and that they had been banned on Earth and they had an expiration date of four years (when they died). I don’t explain the plot but the film debates about what is or what it means living , it personalized by creatures built as our image and likeness, and at same time what rights has the creator on creatures created by It (doesn’t matter human or God). Blade Runner is a milestone for fans of the genre (science fiction). In the era of digital special effects and virtual reality it seem outdate, but the music of Vangelis , darkness and minimal convincing special effects, gives sufficient consistence it despi

After Napoleonic wars the new king of France ( Louis XVIII ) was worried about the delay in in industrial technology. War was isolated United Kingdom but their steam machines raised in productivity while the continent machines were stalled. So Louis XVIII was sent to England an engineer named Sadi Carnot for to see and to copy what England industries where doing in their machines. The surprise was that machines are equal as before war. What had happened? In fact it was happening one thing impossible in the thermodynamic theory of epoch. Watt and their heirs had the patent of steam machine until 1800 (in middle of Napoleonic war) and it born a lot of companies dedicated to build machines steam; and this new companies apply an empirical evidence discovered by mechanical that repair this machines: as great is the temperature better is the machine performance . This evidence was in contradiction to the Caloric theory , and when Watt had been building machines never increase more the

Atmospheric CO 2 is arriving other time at 400 ppm . Obviously last moths it was under mythic threshold but to follow the sawtooth graphic seems that the problem was overcome, but on the contrary graphic trend is growing in exponential. However as I related in “ Are 400 ppm of CO 2 the border to beginning the Armageddon, or not? ” to pass the threshold doesn’t mean that climate begins a spiral of weather disasters. Deniers, in their crusade against the evidence in climate , have profit of a cool winter for beginning their ridiculous idea of Global Cooling . Global Cooling is possible but to put tones of CO 2 in atmosphere isn’t a solution because Earth will be heating until CO 2 and temperature will take other time the equilibrium; but in other hand high CO 2 could do a rebound effect which will carry climate to the Ice Age (read “ The day after Tomorrow ”) CO 2 is growing and nobody does anything. The more powerful oil industry moves all of its influences for to stop
