Brazil and the Amazonia

Yesterday i listened CNN television and i saw one report on the situation in Amazon. The name of the emission is Planet in peril. The reporter was explaining us the topic that during the last 40 years, 40% of the Amazon burned and native people couldn't preserve the territory. They don't have the power to do it. They're living in primitive houses built with water and sand. The houses are divided in two parts. We have a place to sleep and another one to cook. We're talking about very poor habitations. That people doesn't understand, agreeing with the reporter, what happening in their country. There's no more trees, no more water, no more plants, no more animals. They have a traditional way to live. They live with their land. Land assume the function as a mother who gives to you all you need to survive. But the land dies. How can they survive now? That's the question that the reporter asked. Brazilian government should do something. It must find a solution. Amazon isn't only a Brazilian natural place. We're talking about on natural richness of our planet. Brazil have to protect it if we want to stop perils in the planet.

Uniforms, yes or not?

Uniforms, Yes or No?

I agree in every point of view with the author of the “Minimum Wage Hell” written by Aisley Slattery and Val Cross even they are very sarcastic.

First, when people earn a coveted five buck an hour, it means a meagre salary, it’s humiliated to have to wear almost anything that it’s not conforming to your personality and that you have to pay for. In the possibility as workers likes uniforms, why don’t employers let workers choose if they want to wear a uniform and decide what kind it could be? Comfortable uniforms that they don’t have to pay for, for example.

Second, it isn’t true that visible piercing suggest unsanitary standards. I don’t understand this kind of comparison between piercing, tattoos and sanitary standards. It’s a kind of prejudice that we don’t need in our century, in our society. Physical appearance doesn’t override personality.

Third, in reality, it’s a step back in time because we’re trying to change the way to think of all of us concerning people who choose to have a different lifestyle. Certainly, they may feel oppressed and discriminated. The important, it’s not what you looked for, but who you are. To be pretty or to have a nose rings (it doesn’t mean that you’re not pretty anyway) don’t alter the art of bagging groceries, for example. It doesn’t alter performance.

Fourth, if I apply this situation to me, I’m very happy today to don’t must to wear a white teacher uniform like it was the tradition long time ago.
