The Film

The last time that I really felt like hypnotized by a film, was when I see “Avatar”, because this film is very interesting, and I saw the film in 3D. The advantage of see films in 3D is that you can enjoy the specials effects very well. In Avatar the effects in 3D are very good, I love this film!
I think that the base for judge a film is the screen, the production and the novelty of the film. In first, I judge the screen because the history of the film is very important for keep (or not) the attention and the interest in the movie. Second, the productions of the film show the stage in where the history develops; a good production makes a good movie, because improvement the history. Finally, for judge a film, the novelty of the film is important because can (or not) attract to the public.

In the first place, the film industry depends on several factors, like the money, the productions, the type of film, and other things. However, I don´t know lot about the film industry, because I don´t have a formed opinion in this issue.


Second, I think that the first in a film is the story, because when I remember the movies I remember first the story and second the specials effects. In other words, A good story doesn’t specials effects, because captive for your screen, and may have a good specials effects, but without a good story, these effects lost.


Finally, I think that in the film the producer and the director are very important, together all the people that working in the realization of the film. I don´t know the work of the producer nor the director, but I know that the director always takes the congratulations or the critics about in the movies. I don´t could say who is the most important.

How green are you?


The people learn about enviromentally usually through the internet, alternative mass media, for experts on environmental issues and almost never for the oficial mass media or for government campaigns.

In particular, I incorporated some recycling habits in my life, for example, when I go to the supermarket , I use few plastics bags or use fabrics bags. Also, I recycle everyday things as bottles, cartons, batteries and other things that I can recycle in my home.

Also, outside my home, I walk when I go to nearby places, in my district. When I go to farawey places I use the public transport. Although, the public transport polluter, more cars in the streets more pullute. I use the bike usually not as transportation, but as sport.

I did not joined at any eco-organisations because I do not know many except Green Peace, and I think that I haven’t as priority the environment, but I know that this issue is a very important for our society and that the all people should help for have a cleanerd world.

another thing I do is not smoking. I think that the cigars pollute far, not more than a industry, but polluters also in a small measure. Something, I would like have access to more information about the enviromental, and learn techniques for recycling at home.

To reduce my carbon footprint, I haven’t done anything, because I do not what they are the carbón footprint, and I don´t how reduce.

In our society in general, and in Santiago in particular, we need much more information about the issue, to become more aware of the environmental problema, and the goverment should intervene in companies that cause pollution, and invest in researchs for made forms of energy that are less polluting and that this news forms of energy help the environment.

The fuel poverty in UK

The news is about the increase in fuel poverty in UK. In this news , a senior charity executive, Mr Mitchell, raises the topic of the fuel poverty as a “national scandal” . The arguments of Mitchell are a set of statistics from of differents researchs, that show as millions of families in UK, have been hampered by the problema. This families are spend over the 10% of their income in winter heating.

The statistics of the Annual Report on Fuel Statistics 2010, shows an ascending scale in the fuel por, and the most affected by this problem are the seniors, because they must spend large amounts of their pensions every Winter for the problema of cold. Also, the report concludes that the increase in fuel poverty is produced for the increases in the energy prices in UK. This prices increased in 80% between 2004 and 2008.

To this problem, the prime minister, David Cameron, promised to help cope, up emergency payments that receive the families more povertys.

However, Mr Mitchell, expressed fear of the promises from the goverment, because there is distrust by the measures taken, and and the future of the problem of cold in UK. Mr Mitchell , called for keeping the promise to protect the poorest.

Meanwhile, Mr Phil Levermone, suggested something similar to Mr Mitchell, saying that the poorest are the most exploited in this issue.

In conclusión, the problem of the fuel-poor is a problema very important in UK, because there are researchs that reported this factor, and also there are peoples responsible for reporting about the fuel poor at the government authorities, putting this topic in the public stage.

What kind of improvements would you like to see in your society?


In think that my society to better in few aspects, and to worse in many aspects.
The aspects that to better are the gender topics, because today there is more information about this topic, and there are some social organization and more research about this aspect.
Well, the aspects that my society to worse are many. I think that the “Chilean Society” is a society very discriminate. The discriminate this can be seen in the treat with the Peruvian, indigenous peoples and other group of the society. Also, the public opinion is controlled by the mass media, but these mass media respond to the interests of a minority group that have many political and economical power.

I don’t think that the Chilean society is better than other societies around the world, I think that in my society there are very problems that hidden, as the discrimination, the violence, the education, the health and other problems that not Untreated. However, may exist societies worse.

The problems of my society are seen in the great inequality that exist in Chile, for example, in Chile the poor students of municipal schools haven’t the possibility of study in the University, because the education is very bad for them, and they can´t race for the access to study. Instead, the rich student can enter to the university.
