How green i'm

The global warming is an often topic in schools this days, that’s because there are many climatic changes in the world.

So many people learn about environmentally practices in schools, in the news, in TV or internet.
I have lucky because my school was very green, they teach us how to take care the environment and how important is the recycling process, every classroom had four different dump, one for the organic stuff, another for the plastic, one for the aluminum and one for the glass. In the garden was a big dump that was for throwing papers.

So now days me and my boyfriend recycle in house, sometimes we used some stuff to make crafts or others things. We made with plastic bottles little’s masseters. Also we did not have a car so we prefer to walk or to use a bike to move from one place to another, sometimes we have to use a bus but that’s because some distances are very long and we need to get faster.

I don’t joined to any eco-organizations, actually I don’t like any kind of organizations I think that’s because most of them forget the main point why they former the organization and the only thing they want is power. Others organization I like it but I think I have not found the right one for me yet.

I think there is a lot to do yet to make a conscience about the topic, not all schools in Santiago and Chile generally touch the topic because they prefer to spend time teaching math, language or science because that are subjects that will help students to make money but they forget that if we don’t take care our environment we can’t live.

So maybe is important that the state makes sure that schools make some time to explain children why we have to care our planet, and the importance of the environmentally friendly practices.

South America the perfect travel

Actually I don’t want to visit just one country, I have always dreamed to travel around South America. It’s not difficult to find out about South America, it’s on the news every day and internet has a lot of information too.

I think the countries in South America have a lot of thing in common but it has lots of different things too like traditions, food, and art. They are many films that reflect how people live in South America. In Chile it is not hard to find people from the different countries of South Africa, who can tell us how they live, and the most relevant things of their countries.

To go traveling around South America I need at least like a year or two because I would like to stay in one country for a month or two so I can get to see everything eat their food, learn their traditions, see how they live, not only see the tourist part.

I’ve always thinks to make a travel like that alone because not many people want to stay so long time away from home but now I think I would like to do it with my boyfriend I know he likes this stuff too so it would be a good company.

The idea will be to save enough money for the first months and then sell thing like crafts and make the money for the rest of the travel.

Maybe is a dream but I really think that someday I will do that travel I just need save money and take the decision, every dream can come true if we fight for it.

English

Is English the most important language in the world? Now days many countries take English like the most important tool for the industrial world, for international’s job. It’s true that the United States is one of the most important world powers but it’s also true that is not the only one, so we shouldn’t take English like the most important languages in the world we should take it as one more of many existing languages on the world.

The education of this days educate not for a personal growth, it educate students to go out to the working world, so they can generate money for the state and for the country. So most schools and universities of Chile give greater importance to subjects like Math, Science, and English. We can see this in the changes in the school curriculum, where the hours of Math and Language increased. In the universities, like this one, make the English subject an elementary subject for all the careers that the university taught.

Is important to remember that the education is for a personal growth too and not only for getting a job when we get graduated, so I think that indigenous languages are so important like English. If we live here in Chile we should now languages like Mapudungun. But that kind of languages are not elementary subjects like English if you wanted to know an indigenous language you have to take an elective subject. And I think the same happens in others countries they completely obviate their indigenous, so they obviate their language too.

In the working world are others languages that are so important like English like the German or the mandarin Chinese, for naming a few. But those languages are not taught in schools, except for schools from the countries like the German school. And again if you wanted to learn them you need to hire a personal teacher.

At last I would like to say that for me the education its means more than a tool to get to have a job someday, some of us study for the pleasure of increase our knowledge so learning German, French and indigenous languages have the same importance that learning English because they can opening the same or more windows for the future.
