ABC: That's the clue!

Last week, pope Benedictus XVI made a polemic declaration about the use of condoms. He said that condoms are not a solution Aids problem, actually they are a part of the problem.

The whole community has react against these declarations. The "courrier international", a serious and objective french journal whose content is formed by pieces of news from different newspapers all around the world, has publish a polemic first page on this week number.

Inside they remember the pope the ABC strategy which is followed by a huge part of the catholic community. A for Abstinence, B for Be faithful and C for Condom. This three elements together can finish with Aids in Africa and all over the world. It's Utopian to think that the abstinence and the faith in god will solve the problem, we are talking about Africa, a different continent, several cultures and, obviously, in the XXI century we cannot, the WEC (white European Catholics), think about a second colonisation as we did with South America.

What else...?

Masdar City: Hope or Illusion?

In April 2006, Abu Dhabi took a bold and historic decision to embrace renewable and sustainable energy technologies.

As the first major hydrocarbon-producing nation to take such a step, it has established its leadership position by launching Masdar, a global cooperative platform for open engagement in the search for solutions to some of mankind's most pressing issues: energy security, climate change and truly sustainable human development.

If the major producer of solid-based fuel has decided to invest in green energies maybe it should be the moment for everybody to become conscious of the necessity of a change in our mentality. Don't let it for tomorrow, start now being green!
