Post 7 : Environmental Conflicts

 Hi there, Fernanda here!

I want to ask you a question; will you prefer making money in a determinate place instead of inhabitant’s health? Here in Chile big business owners prefer a billion times money. Can you believe it? I mean, how selfish and insensible may these people be? I think they don’t deserve to be called humans.

Quintero is a really worrisome matter but it is not the only environmental conflict that we (as Chileans) have past.

For example in 2008 HidroAysen which contemplates the construction of five hydroelectric centrals (two in Baker river as three in Pascua river) presents its Study of Environmental Impact which a lot of people said that was adulterated, even when it gets throw different channels of communication for environmental topics without being freeze in any steps of them.

So in this point I ask myself what kind of people we are choosing to be in charge of our national reality and also to be our voice in legislative topics. I my opinion we (I mean, not only in Chile but almost all over the world) are messing it up in a lot of different ways, but come on! We may not keep choosing the same people to be in charge! Do we never learn about our past errors? I think the biggest problem here in Chile is that people is really forgetful.

I hope good times will come soon because we really need them (but not Piñera’s )

Have a nice Friday!
