There are argues no valid and there are argues wrong

A lot of thinks and points of view are the engine that makes to grown our knowledge. Societies with freedom of thinking are where knowledge, technology and economy rise and societies where thinking is restricted will became stagnant and impoverished. Luckily the human mind can’t be stop and it finds ways where it can develop. The academy isn’t the home of wises but it’s the home of ideas however these run in streets, factories and even pubs; human think is manifesting in where people can be, and every idea are making the human knowledge. So any argue can’t be exclude . It can be wrong but this would worry us, because time and better argues will discard it. Unfortunately sometimes some people make argues to avoid prosper other argue. This is very legitimate if the counterargument serves to rich the discussion and it give better proves. But usually this argue only provides noise at discussion with its only finality is stopping the new idea, which often puts in danger basic concepts. In ...

The lost world

When I was child I remember my grandmother with a big cardboard box plenty of old pictures. These photos showed people, parties, sites… souvenirs of a life. She had showed them because she didn't want to lose a remembrance of these people, mainly death, and what did pass; and she showed us, her grandsons, because we will survive her and with us the remembrance survives too. I liked to see these pictures. They put me in sites out from my reach, and sometimes I think that generate me the interest for histories of sites, buildings, roads, anonymous people and how a current thing can be arrived in front me today. Luckily people recorded most important events since immemorial times (never better said), but obviously ordinary facts, people or sites must be omitted and their remembrance lost forever. Official history only talks about few facts, principals which were making the continuous of it, but doesn’t talk about the world where these facts were happening. The box plenty of picture...

Stop the madness

Ecuador announces in the last dais its intentions of drilling oil in the tropical forest . Ecuador tropical forest is a natural reserve of biosphere, and in its land life a few thousands of aboriginal human groups in total isolate of world, the natural value of these forests are uncountable. The reason adduced by Ecuador government is that United Nations doesn’t pay for the conservation of these forests and it’s the mandatory of Ecuador government to be care of its people and oil will gives thousands of works and the money that will come with oil will be using for eradication of people poverty and save the environment (irony of politics haven’t limits). But who’re us to deny at country of Ecuador the right to raze its tropical forests? when Brazil makes the same, practice that put it in the group of twentieth economical powerful countries; or Argentina in Patagonia, Australia drilling the Great Barrier and Canada with Tar-Sands in Alberta. How we want to stop the ‘legitimate’ int...

Water

An important feature of this planet where we’re living in is the omnipresence of a mineral which abundance is often not valued, the water. Obviously the areas where this mineral is rare for immediate use is considered an object of great value, but majority places it hasn’t value. Currently the overpopulation this vision is changing, and usually we begins to have a perception of scarce resource, which is not entirely true, although it should take measures to ensure this doesn’t end up being a reality. It’s affirming that future wars will be with the water, and I don’t doubt that it will end up being true, but mainly by incompetence and lack of vision, responsible for most of human disasters that happen to us, not by lack of most abundant mineral in the earth's crust. This planet is the son of the water . But part of the basis of life also involved in most geological processes and rules the climate. Ultimately it is the agent that makes Earth so different place from the rest of ...

Science people and beliefs

Knowledge can’t guaranty happiness of the people but it makes free them What doesn’t mean be free when we are only a path to walk? And if exists more lanes to follow when you only knows the existence of one, Where is our election?  Only when we know different possibilities for choosing, we can exercise the freedom . Dictatorial and other powers always prove to cut the general knowledge. When people have a small world they have greater security and trends to believe in unquestionable truths, so people accept resignedly the power dictates.  Sometimes is the own academy what closes in a crystal jail it, under pretext of majority of people doesn’t be ready to get it, therefore hide in back of this ascension there is often fear to lose their privileged position.  But the main wall that knowledge must thought is indeed the people resistance.   Children have a natural predisposition to learn. They need to learn because sooner or later they must take their site in...

No matter if the climate evolves into hotter or cooler

Imatge
Recently climate change skeptics have unearthed the memory lane of the climate crisis Global Cooling . In the 70s an unexpected drop in temperatures while few years made meteorologists postulated that a new ice age came. Obviously if they mistake then why aren’t they mistaking now? The answer is the same as I said in previous writings, since 1850 approx. that temperatures have a tendency to rise exponential and what is happening in one year or two isn’t significant; we can see that kind of fluctuations are doing in this upward trend. The assertion that the heat of recent years is only a fluctuation of the climate isn’t entirely true. If it would be a fluctuation in temperature, trend moves around a center line, and this isn’t observed even we move our data to many years before 1850. Precisely this was the mistake that made these meteorologists to take only a short interval data. But this statement we must also include those who believe that the change to cold is real. In this posi...

Living seated on a mountain of corpses

Dhaka.   Thousands people are working into the building full of the chaos, materials, machinery and finished products. For a miserable salary hours of intense work, suffocating atmosphere and no hope for a better future; their future is working for survive themselves and their sons. In a building made without accurate, oversaturated of workers, machines and merchandises, it is manufacturing the western dream of products cheap, beautiful and without responsibility. But one fateful day the dream was truncated. The advertisement of engineers, noise of structure and movements of building didn’t serve, responsible of the production didn’t want to lose time and money; and suddenly building took away the life of more one thousand people . But actually these thousands and millions people of the so-called in developing countries haven’t life for so long. The industrial revolution in the XVIII century appeared redistributes human labor. Usually people associate industry with factory...
