The lost decade

Imatge
We are arrived to 2020 without any of environment and climate goals achieved Today we passed to new decade. The last days newspapers and magazines make reports and extrapolations about how our world would look in the next 30 years. Some are optimistic, other give more alerts about the future; but too much seem that lives in other planet. If we see the last 30 years, we see a humanity worried about how it can grow but forgetting that planet is finite. Planet haven’t infinite land to build infrastructures, haven’t infinite air to store our polluted gases and infinite space to hide our trash. When media publish about what we must do in the next 30 years, but they forget what we hadn’t been able to do in last 30 years. Australia fires - people trapped in beach   When I began to write this blog, many people told me that we must write in positive. Well, I’m not the most joyful of person of this planet. It’s too much hard to talk in positive about future in the current cont...

A white year (Christmas 2019)

Imatge
Yes, look at the list of publication i've seen that this is precisely the preceding Christmas last year. It is no surprise because this year I have not written anything. The truth is I did have a lot to say but little desire to tell them. Trash Mountain (Sunday Observer - Sri Lanka) It's been a difficult year, with forces changes and not all too positive. That did not normally entail too much trouble: rethink goals, deadlines, actions, new ways ... but the overall context does not help. The human stupidity has surpassed me . I am not someone positive or optimistic, I am always feasible and prepare for the worst possible outcome. Contrary to say a lot of people, it is always easier to manage a positive surprise than a negative. I'm wrong like everyone else, really more than them, this is perhaps the only quality that defines me.  But if anyone as silly as I am, could see that we are just like hamsters, running in an eternal wheel without leaving where we ...

The human stupidity

Imatge
COP24 was the next fail of world governments to revert the mankind’s fall to hell, in summarize.  Too many times we think that politics live in a crystal ball, and what they see as a reality is something very far of current people. Really politics have a different point of view about the world, have more information than current people and a wide context. They must take decisions that will favor the majority, not for today but the next month and years. In other hand the painful decisions are often misinformed to the public, sometimes they would sell them as good, other times they hide the real reasons. Our weak Planet “ Real Politics ” is the difference between the ideals and what they can do. When I wrote “ Absolutist heritage ” I talked about the real impossibility of global control on by the absolutist monarchs and how administration makes this real control of countries now and then. Administration is the eyes, ears and executor arm of government. Administration dec...

Tomorrow is now

200 years from the beginning to burn fossil fuels, we are in front of its consequences. The most incredible is how a lot of people denies it. December of 2017 California is still burning. We ignore when it will finish but the result will be the disappearance of the California’s forest. We could talk about the current extraordinary weather of this days, but really these wildfires are the last steep of the great drought. The great drought killed one third of the trees which are becoming the perfect fuel. California wildfires This year was the year of wildfires and hurricanes (even in Europe). Every day the number of refugees grows. The number of regions without hope to rise after disaster also grows and people leave this regions for survive. Humans has passed the threshold of sustainability but what we do is double the losing bet. Losing for a people but a great profit for a less. The sad situation is the interested blindness of economy powers. Oil and the rest of fossil f...

We don't know what we're betting

The countdown has probably already completed and Climate Change is inevitable, however to persist in making the same mistake will only give us the things to become worse. The oil and coal lobbies have won the game of democracy. Polls continue to support who helps coal and oil industry . No matter the manifestations of April 2017 and many others can be made, the reality is who talk about “climate is normal” or minimize impact of it, has more credibility than all studies and proves of nature. I could recall previous articles about the reality that we perceive (see " Ignore the evidence ") but the question is more complex than we might think. Warming without stop In 2007, the world economy was blown up. The reasons are many but the main thing is that the world's wealth, or rather, what we understand how global wealth really doesn’t exist. Billion and trillions of euros is just a number in a computer. 90% of transactions in our world they are financial , and these...

Temperature and survival

Imatge
Every specie is linked with the climate that it was born. Food, water or oxygen quantity determines size, shape and age to dead. When some boundary change being must change or disappear. Imagine if in the world all our possible meal disappears and other possibilities of eat will become a poison. Yes, it’s an extreme situation which is impossible to happen in our current boundary conditions but not of all impossible with other planetary boundaries that was happened in other geological times. Fish survive is in threat as ours We can’t survive in Cretaceous Age , not for the existence of terrible dinosaurs but we can’t breathe the air with our current lungs; we would walk in Cretaceous Age as we are in Pandora’s Moon of the Avatar film . As us in Cretaceous, the Jurassic animals couldn’t survive in our time (even if will resucite them as Jurassic Park ). The current air is an advantage, something that we can see with their direct sons: the birds which able to fly only with ...

Spring asthenia in fifth of February

Imatge
Just started the winter when spring already here again. This is not good nor bad now because the consequences after the live. It's over the winter. As I said a year ( Spring in full in February ) meteorological winter just finished in February; regardless that American’s marmots say, popular wisdom or any other ancestral sign. It’s a fact; today the summers end in November and winter is reduced to a few weeks of Christmas and January. The asthenia is one state where the changing of climate generated a profit fall to the person who suffers. I don’t know if I suffer it but I have a low blood pressure rather sudden changes in atmospheric pressure (no matter whether upward or downward) cause me drowsy. So, when the weather changes I can predict it with relative certainty, being the current climate roulette that we’re living a considerable emotional ordeal. This morning (5/2/17) had the soul feet, together with the change of smell general breathed in streets denoted somethin...
