Sunglasses? No,thanks! Now the sun is really shiny, so I want to buy a new sunglasses. I don’t have clear where to buy it, on internet or a traditional shop. I don’t have enough time to go around looking for optic shops, so internet will be quicker. On the other hand, shopping in optic shops it’s easy to try on the product opposite a mirror. Buying on internet choosing an appropriate product which suits you is difficult. Only your intuition can guide yourself. A simply decision like this is felt as a problem because you will probably do an annoying mistake. Although the doubts above mentioned I decided to find sunglasses on internet. The extensive offer is attractive and the range of prices is also wide. Looking for web sites you find lots of them. What of them deserve merely trust and has a secure way to pay? After diving in websites, looking for feedbacks, backgrounds, etc you decide two or three sites. What sunglasses shape will you choose? Do you prefer urban, sport, vintage, etc shapes? What glass colour is fine for you? How much amount do you have available to spend? What material do you prefer for frame? Do they have enough sun protection? Can you back them if the chosed sunglasses aren’t how you expected them? If they are cheap, what is the catch? I’m lazy thinking about those questions. I won’t buy them. I will wear some old sunglasses that I already have.

Consuming planet Currently we live in a consumer society. Almost in every place we can buy goods from almost every corner of the globe. This is a consequence of globalization. There are strong borders for refugees, but not for capitals and goods, also useless goods. Furthermore, globalization makes that all industrial products become similar in all corners of every continent. There is already not special feelings buying things in an exotic place by traveller. Perhaps the traveller could be buy the same object in his own city. Nevertheless, offer creates need, although offer include lots of useless things. If we see a new product we will feel a compulsory need of possess it. However we have to choose it carefully. Otherwise we will spent far money buying things that we won’t use, useless for us and crowding our house of stuff making it a kind of store. Maybe we could afford it, but the planet couldn’t it. We must keep the planet healthier and one of the ways for that is not producing stupid things. Pollutions from factories, means of transport carrying them and disposal useless goods contribute to contaminate air, water and land. So, globalization indirectly destroys environment? I have no doubt. We must be a responsible consumer. It isn’t happiest who more things has, otherwise who needs less things could be really happy.

Another point of view The 2016 Olympic Games are developing now. On the whole I'm sorry for humble Brazilian people. People feel noblest feelings and pride if a big event is made in their country. An instance of that is loads of volunteers give their best. Mass media, olympic committees, politicians and so on focus on the event taking advantage for their interests. But…,actually, what happen ? These big events cost an enormous amount of money. The cost is paid by population. Doesn't matter what is the way. Actually there are many ways. A big event is like a fertilized soil where grow corruption. This stands firmer and it’ll survive all winds long time since the event has finished. On the other hand I admit that a big event generates lots of money. However few hands get money from the event. Some of them make a killing, although humble people won’t get any coin. Nevertheless they will pay country debts during decades meanwhile tax haven countries are probabily collecting capitals. As a result of a big event, many countries became poorer than before with hard and longer economic crashes losing millions of jobs. There are some examples.

Ignorance is very daring! In the first growth stages, a child can be attracted by fire and tray to touch it. They don't have enough perception of danger. A child who is learning to walk perhaps he or she has any temptation to plunge into a swimming pool too deep. They still cannot realize where there are serious dangers. Ignorance is the reason why they do things like these. What about adults’ ignorance? Some individuals do activities too dangerous taking account them preparation or knowledge about these activities. Others do activities in danger form endangering people or things. A clear instance of that is drives in an inappropriate way or deny the climate change within they are obtaining profits meanwhile. But, this behaviour is not seems to child ignorance. Child ignorance in adults is showed every day when we criticize things without enough knowledge about them. We tend to be experts in everything misjudging great specialists. Also, we have something worst if we can: hindering solutions. We suggest simple and spontaneous solutions about complex problems which specialists don't find agreement. Ignorance is very daring!

Creativity? Where? I'm wasting time standing opposite to Italki website now. I want to write something but i have no idea about what subject I can do it. It's so hard must to write when you don't be inspired. So I'm understanding how good press journalists, who writes a daily article in newspapers, lots of time they write stupid articles or about uninteresting things. I remember a quotation by Donatella Versace: 'Creativity comes from a confict of ideas'. More or less we can tell the same about inspiration. When your mind is paceful doesn't work. It needs stress, conflict and troubles for give the best. In contrast to last feelings I'm quite and any conflict now. zzz Therefore I can't find any subject that gives my motivation to write. If someone from Italki community suggest to me any topic.I will try to write tomorrow about. Thanks

I'm addicted to... I'm addicted to melon. Melon is a summer fruit native from Middle Asia or Africa. Its origin is not clear. In any case this plant has adapted really well in Mediterranean countries where it is produced lots of tons. A melon plant can produce five or six fruits of three, four or five kilos every one. There are several varieties of melon but I prefer green ones or yellow ones like attached photos. Both are very delicious. However, I find more sauvory taste in the yellow melon. Incredible taste if the plant grown in good conditions of land, climate, temperature, etc. I remember once I ate a yellow melon which had stuck a label that read "Meló d'Or". I still keep that label. I had never ate something more delicious than that melon. The melon combine or mix in lots of dishes, ice cream or merely like a fruit dessert. It is sweet with crisp flesh. Eating melon from fridge is a pleasure in a hot day. I'm addicted to it at any time. Do you like?

Who will be in that paradise? July is a summer month in my country. It is a really hot month. The temperature is raising every decade. I haven't doubt that the global warming is coming more quickly than scientists predict. The hot waves repet more times than some decades ago. The temperatures records are constantly beated. Furthermore, in my gegrafical area, the environment is becoming dry and dry year to year. The average annual rainfall is seriously decresing. My age is nothing compared to earth timescale, however I can apreciate the global warming clearly. The target of two celsius degree stablished in several environmental summits has already exceeded. I think so. As well earth poles feel the raising temperature. Doesn't matter if I feel that, but when the polar ice melts in enormous quantities the humanity has a big problem wothout reverse. Greedy multimillonaires denying the problem and controlling mass media will always be. For them there will always be a paradise in some place. Who will be in that paradise and what social role will have?

Big invention, don't you? I think screw is one of the most important inventions made by humanity. They are made by metal, wood, plastic and so on. Novadays we find them assembling pieces in all kind of industrial products. It is amazing how a small piece can join different pieces strongly and securely. In adition a screw is cheaper and easily manufactured. Furthemore it is,maybe, the most known how operate object bay population and everybody have used hundreds of them. A simple tool as a screwdriver is adequate to work with secrews and build a complex machine, for instance.
