Purposes in-sustainable-sustaining
Suppose you either go for a medical ailment. Suppose after he diagnosed with high levels of bad cholesterol in blood and that his arteries are affected by the large amounts of fat in them. Add to this that the rest of his family is also a doctor and that all who live under its roof are in the same situation: fat oozing from every pore. Having raised this situation, would continue to buy bacon for breakfast? "Stay with friends to account for an every other day too, tripe about Madrid?
sure common sense will show you other ways to stay alive, right? With global warming happens something very similar. However, the society is (still) thinking that this disease will not affect your standard of living immediately that something is not close and that their attitudes do not help to prolong the dying planet. And as usual, wrong. The problem of Climate change affects everyone, the people here and there, and it may be regular (not fix, my eye!) being consistent with each local action, every gesture, every decision, are grams of fat that accumulates in the vital arteries of the planet. It has been a (delicate) time when politicians, intellectuals, presidents of neighborhood associations, teachers and students are filling the mouth with words like sustainability, climate change, reduction, recycling ... But these claims are thrown to the wind, beyond being just mere empty words? I fear that in many cases, no.
In Santa Cruz, for example there is a Development Company ("sustainable?), I guess, so the city will not remain stagnant, evolve, improve. Well, this institution has scheduled a New Year's party "with the largest fireworks show in the Canary Islands." Have you taken into account in the draft environmental impact that can generate the burning of hundreds of kilos of gunpowder? Could not apply the money it costs to replace that show fleeting incandescent lamps with low-energy, for example? Should not we start thinking about scheduling parties that are truly sustainable?
Christmas, this holiday season Consumer outrageous and absurd, are a disservice to sustainability: waste, containers, papers, the nonsense that we buy and throw tomorrow accumulate in an insular area in which there is hardly room for themselves and waste we generate. Articles like this are not, most of the time, politically correct: it is taboo to criticize the traditions, popular decisions, but they are harmful and damaging. All I would say two things: those who agree with me that we should take care of every detail for the benefit of the future of our children, that only by acting locally we can improve the overall state of the planet. To those who criticize me for spoilers, boring and urge you to demagogue them back to the beginning of this article, but their hearts are no longer able to more fat, eat dinner tonight a chorizo \u200b\u200bsandwich and two sausages. At the end of the day, what is a more to a tiger stripe.
