How many people can our planet really support?

We have a problem with the future of the planet. The problem not is the number of people if not the behavior of these persons with the Earth. This happens because we consume more than earth produces.
As Gandhi said " The world has enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed"
The population increases and with she the damage that we make with our necessities. According to United  Nations predictions it could reach 9 billion people by 2050, and over 11 billion by 2100. And more important we aren't know if can live so much persons because this never happened before. But we can know where will happen this increase observing that the largest increase currently low and middle-income countries.
Mainly, rich countries emit the emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases however the poor countries even having more inhabitants emit less greenhouse gases. There are exceptions, such as the Copenhagen.
The way for can to maintain a large human population is that the people living in high-income nations reduce the pressure on global climate.
Therefore, there needs to be a fundamental change in the core values of developed societies: away from an emphasis on material wealth, and towards a model where individual and societal well-being are considered most important.
Also is important reduce the number of inhabitants because we aren't maintain so much persons. A good method is helping the persons of poor countries because sometimes have sons because they haven't contraceptive methods and when have the son they can't maintain him.
The big number of inhabitants and the actions of these make: problems of climate change, biodiversity extinction crisis, mass ocean pollution, one billion people are starving and another one billion people are having nutrient deficiencies.
Although it has been investigated if we would can live in other planets, for the moment the only place where we will live is the Earth. Then we have to take care of the Earth.

I think that the rich countries we would have to something for attempt to improve the condition of Earth and the some inhabitants of this. Until not make nothing globally we can make anything for helping to Earth.

Introduction Global Issues

CLASSROOM ACTIVITY NEWS: Introduction Global Issues ( Friday 10th November)


http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-35073297

Paris climate agreement is a accord made by different countries of the world. This accord wants to better the climate, fighting against climate change.
The key elements for get the objective are fall the global temperatures, review the reduction of gases in each country and the rich countries help to the poor countries to adapt to climate change and switch to renewable energy.
This agreement has as weakness the money because would need more and this make that have less projects. But Paris is only the start and still have many things that to do.
Before they tired start a project for protect the environment. This project, Kyoto Protocol was a agreement create in 1997 and it wanted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The accord did not work because the US pulled out and other failed to comply.

In my opinion this is a good way of invest money because the climate change affect everyone. So i think that would have to make more project with this objective and don't spend so much many in unnecessary things. Also I believe, and want be wrong, that we will not obtain proposed goals.

Bullying

I have chosen to talk about bullying the more we know about this the better . In this way we can help the person who is being bullied and also the person who does the bullying.
First of all there are many kinds of bullying. The typical bullying at school but  nowadays it is frequent to use cyberbullying by sending messages and whatsapp. It can be verbal or aggressive. In my opinion all this these forms are bad because all of them hurt in some way.
The person who is bullied  does not usually tell anybody neither his parents nor his teachers because he is afraid. However the person who does the bullying also has a problem because this behaviour is not normal. Furthermore the person who bullies often does this when he is with a group of friends, but when he is alone his attitude is different. Both of them need help because if not this will become more serious.
In conclusion bullying is not good for anybody, moreover if you see anybody who is being bullied or any person who does bullying you should ask for help.

Tracy Chapman -Talkin' Bout A Revolution

Talkin' Bout A Revolution 

Talkin 'Bout A Revolution is a song of Tracy Chapman written in 1988.

It is a song that talks about the social differences that had at that epoch. Although now, at a lower level, there is still a hierarchical society.  There are people who have a lot of power and money while others starve to death.
For this reason I have chosen this song, because we have to fight for our rights. Nobody can be born being any better than another person, we all deserve the opportunity to choose our future.
This song claims the rights of the people and encourages us to fight for them.

FREE SPACE

In this free space I will put a text that I have written.

Over time I learned that our relation never finished because never was a us. Because no can there be a us when only there was a one implicate person .

Over time I learned that the night of sleeplessness and the dropping tears were not worth it.

Over time I learned that the fault there was not mine, it was yours. Because the fault isn't from who loves, is from who play with the love.

Over time I learned that the only loser was you, because nobody would love you like I did.

Over time I learned that all I could do was won. Because it would not be difficult for someone to love me more than you ever did.

Over time I learned that I should love you less and love myself more....

Original text: 

Con el tiempo aprendí que lo nuestro no acabó porque nunca hubo un nosotros. Porque no puede haber un nosotros cuando sólo hay una persona implicada.
Con el tiempo aprendí que las noches de insomnio y las lágrimas caídas no valían la pena.
Con el tiempo aprendí que la culpa no era mía sino tuya. Porque la culpa no es de quien se enamora si no de quien juega con eso.
Con el tiempo aprendí que el único que perdía aquí eras tú, porque nadie te iba a amar como yo lo hice.
Con el tiempo aprendí que lo único que haría yo sería ganar. Porque no sería difícil que alguien me amara más de lo que tu nunca lo hiciste.
Con el tiempo aprendí que debía quererte menos y amarme más.

The shining

12 Questions on the film:

1 Why exactly is this film (and the book it was based upon) called "The Shining"?

Because Danny have a skill and Dick tells him that he also has that ability and calls the shining.

2 What exactly happened to Jack? Why is he in that picture at the end of the movie?

Jacks goes lunatic. Because the assassin of 1921 had also been Jack but in another life. 

3 Who hurt Danny after his visit to room 237?

A ghost of a woman who had committed suicide in the bathroom in that room.

4 After saying that he would sell his soul for just one beer, Jack looks up and greets the barman Lloyd. Since this was Jack's first time at the hotel, how could he have known the barman's name?

Because the barman is a product of Jack's imagination.

5 Who or what is actually possessing the Overlook Hotel? Also, why do the said possessors want to drive Jack Torrance insane?

 They are the souls that come from the old Amerindian cemetery, located under the hotel. Because they want me to kill Danny and stay with the child's ability. 

6 What is the significance of the man in the Chipmunk costume with the man in tuxedo seen by Wendy in the bedroom ? What are they supposed to be doing?

That she also saw ghosts. He be having sex with a man.

7 "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is supposed to be scary, but I don't understand. Why is it scary and what does it mean?

Es aterrador porque lo escribe muchas veces and  it means that it is already going crazy.

8 Who is Tony?

 Tony is the imaginary friend of Danny. Although in reality it is as he calls his power.

9 We see Jack in the picture at the end of the film which was painted in 1921 which I guess means that Nicholson was either possessed or reincarnated...but does anyone have a definite answer? Or does Kubrick just want us to decide for ourselves?

It is always the soul of the same person who reincarnated and returns to the hotel to kill. 

10 Who is the old woman in room 237 and what is her significance?

Is one of the women who died. It may be Grady's wife and that room is where he killed her family.

11 Does Danny's ability to "shine" have any connection to Jack's insanity and the events that occur in the hotel?

Yes, because what attracts the ghosts of the hotel is the power of Danny. Jack is controlled by the hotel.

12 If Jack is a reincarnation, how does he not know Danny possesses the shining? The other ghosts, such as Delbert Grady, who have always been there, can see Danny's talent. If Jack has always been there, how come he can't see what Grady sees?
Because he not keep his totally memory , because you don't know how to use his power.
