Wake up people

I am listening the "Four Seasons" from Vivaldi right now. Enchanting. As Carol said: "I could go to Heaven now listening this".

I got a music in my head for almost four days. The Cure... "I don't care if monday black, tuesday wednesday heart attack, thursday never looking back, it's friday I'm in love".

I am studying studying studying as never. Today, saturday, I spent 5 hours at the library reading my favourite book "Principles of Environmental Sciences". It never happened before to me to work a saturday. I went threw three chapters, more or less interesting, but I have to admit the last one got me depressed. It was about "food and population". So, 6 millions kids under 5 died every year because of malnutrition, 2 billions people live with less than $1 a day, there are more overweight people than underweight people in the world, mainly due to the fact that developing countries are taking habits of developed countries, or in certain cases malnutrition can conduce to overweight problem, leading to other diseases such strokes, heart problems and hypertension. In the mean time, most of the people leaving under those conditions are part of the most diversified ecosystems. They have to deal with feeding problems, finding new fields for crop productions, preserving biodiversity and lands...

What are we waiting for, people from the "western countries"? When are we going to realize that this is now that changes may occur. When are we going to realize that this our generations who has to make concessions and sacrifices? What are we waiting for guys???

Wake up people...!!!!
