Post 6: Environmental care

In this post, I’m gonna talk about the importance of taking care of the environment. To cooperate in the care of the planet, one of the most important step that can be carried out is the acquisition of the “three R”, that is reduce, re-use and recycle.

The principle of three R refers to the development of responsible consumer habits: reduce the consumption of assets and energy, reuse an object to give it a second life (that is, to reuse something that may still be useful in either its original function or in a new function) and recycle, that is subjecting already used materials to a transformation process so that they can be reused.

Personally, I always seek to comply with these three principles, either using only the exact and necessary energy, reducing water consumption, using public transportation, recycling, etc. One of the things that I give more importance is the recycling; I’m looking to recycle the largest amount of things that the “green point” of Homecenter allows me: paper, glass, cardboard, tetrapak, tin, magazines, newspaper, various types of plastic (industries mainly produce plastic packaging and very few biodegradable packaging), among others.

The incorporation of these simple principles is important, because it’s a way of taking charge of the waste that we leave on the planet, which will not only affect the future generations, but finally all the species that coexist with us on this planet are affected.

    Is a very interesting post :) I am very much in agreement with such initiatives but I think the only way that there is a significant change is with more education for a more collective work that involves the whole society

Post 9: Changes to my study program

In this post, I’m going to talk about the changes I would like to apply in the career of Anthropology of this university. I think that there are three focuses that need a transformation: curricula, professors (including academic charge) and facilities. About the curricula, I think that basic cycle of the career should improve, the subjects should be equally distributed in order for exist the same number of subjects for the three majors (archaeology, social anthropology and physical anthropology). I say this because currently the basic cycle has a predominance of subjects of social anthropology. On the other hand, about the major of archaeology I think that should be included more applied subjects that mean subjects that allow us to understand the different fields in which archaeologists perform in the current field work in our country. Now, about the professors of Department of Anthropology I think there should also be changes, in the sense that new professors should be hired,...

Post 8: Summer plans

Imagen
In this post, I’m gonna talk about summer plans. The truth is that I have not thought about what I will do during my summer vacation, also I’m not a person who makes long-term plans. What I do know is that I want to work on something during December at least, maybe in a movie theater or as a waitress at events (like graduation or marriage parties). Another thing that I would love to do during the vacations is to go out with my friends, whom I see a few during the rest of the year, read the stack of books that is waiting for me and watch the series and movies that I have pending. In addition, something I really enjoy during the summer is to eat seasonal fruits, like watermelon, melon, grapes, strawberries, peaches, apricots and cherries; I love them! Now, about the subject of the holidays themselves I don’t know what to say. I think I would like to go to the beach with my friends and go to the south (ninth and tenth region) with my family, because I love the southern lakes, but...
