Maybe it can be a crazy, but when I watched this video of Johan Rockstrom, I remembered a episode of The Simpsons whose name is Trash of Titan(in Spanish is "Residuos Titánicos"). Is the episode 22 of the season 9.
In this episode, Homer gets the job of Springfield's Sanitation Commissioner and well, later will destroy the city of Springfield...How? It's simple, Homer spends all the money of his job and need more. Homer uses the Springfield's mine as a dump of many cities. And put and put and put a lot of garbage of all these cities and finally the garbage rises to the surface, leaving Springfield uninhabitable.
And which is the solution? Fix the problem? Clean the area? No, the solution is move the city 8 km.
Always the solution of humanity with the environmental's problems is to do nothing and go to another area to destroy it.
When I was young, this episode made me laugh, but now I watched from other point of view. The point of view about who knows more about environmental and how is the humanity, and I saw a critics to our style of life, our waste.
This episode have more of ten years, and we don't learn nothing about our errors...
Fantástico! un ejemplo sencillo, fácilmente comprensible y absolutamente cierto (al fin y al cabo llevamos enterrando la basura bastante tiempo, como si el no verla significara que ya no existe).
ResponderEliminarUna vez más, un capítulo de los Simpsons, o una escena, para cada momento de la vida real...
Recuerdo ese capitulo, enterraban la basura hasta que empezó a salir por todas partes. Quizás algún día ya no halla donde meter todos nuestros residuos y pase algo parecido.Y nos acordaremos de que alguien hablaba de las 3R(Reducir, Reutilizar,Reciclar).
ResponderEliminar!Los Simpsons nos han enseñado tanto!Un ejemplo muy original!Algún día la Tierra nos devolverá la patata y entonces quizás sea tarde.
