Climate change

UN warns to us that climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our times, because it threatens the food production, increases the level of the sea, and increases the risk of natural disasters. The climate change is closely related to the global warming, the last phenomenon is caused by the increase in greenhouse gas. FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) said the climate change is affecting trees phenology. Today we are watching than probably we are going to have problems with some fruit trees, because of some of them are not throwing away their leaves yet. Why can we do against tha climate change? Agriculture leaves a lot of pollution. We are going to be the new agronomical engineers and it is time to do the things well done. We have the tools, acknowledgment, and technology to have "clean" crops, animal, and fruit production. By applying fewer fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and using only the neccesary amount of water we will help to minimi...

My favourite photograph

 It is difficult to choose a favourite photo. I mean, pictures remember us moments, people... If I had a picture with all people significant in my life, surely I'll choose it like my favourite photo. More than this, if I wanted to select photographs who shows great moments, surely a lot of space in the cloud will be needed.  So, 'cause I'm stubborn, I'm going to choose at least three pictures to show you. This photo was in my High School graduation, with my parents. It was taken by the journalist of the School, and I saved it from the web page. In this, I'm with my brother. It was my last day in School. My mom takes this picture. And this photograph was automatically taken. Is dated on January 2018. I'm with my girlfriend in the bridge of  Blanco river, in our travel across the asutral highway. That's all folks!

Immigrants

I think to talk about immigrants will always cause controversy. The population of our country, as all the New World´s countries, has been being formed by immigrants. From the settlement of America, with people who came from Polynesia until today, with Peruvian, Haitian, Colombian, Venezuelan an others immigrants. About the current wave of immigrants, I agree with is necessary to regulate who and how many people can come here to stay. Immigrants change our society, with good and bad things. There are many good immigrants, who came to Chile looking for opportunities and they are honest people working. But, by the other side, there are bad ones, who are committing crimes, as kidnaps, steals, drug traffic, prostitution, and murders. In my opinion, the policies taken by the government (practically closing the borders) are necessary, in the short term, while defining a thoughtful immigration policy.

My favourite piece of technology

Today is time to write about technology. The Oxford Dictionary defines technology as: "The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in the industry". I look for the definition in Real Academia EspaƱola dictionary and it's the same definition. So, my favourite piece of technology is the smartphone . Smartphones are very useful because they are mobile phones and computers at the same time. They could be used in many activities, today like a student I use it to see the email, the marks, the classes, memes, to take photos and be communicated with family and friends. Tomorrow being professional maybe I will use it with powerful apps who helps to take decisions quickly in the field. But even smartphones are my favourite piece of technology, I can live without it. And actually... I enjoy very much to be isolated without a cellphone.
