Letter to the Minister of Enviroment

4 Waterloo Road
London
Great Britain
3rd of September 2013
The Minister of Environment
Madrid
Spain

Dear Madame,

I am writing this letter to apologize for how water is being wasted in your country. The statistics show me that Spain is one of the countries in the European Union that waste more water during the year.
This fact cost more than one million Euros to your country and is beginning to affect the environment. I want to show some ideas that if you decide you can use for improve the problems that Spain have with the water.
First, I think that the most important measure that you government should follow is to reduce the ours that fountain and other aquatics monuments are working during the day. Then I believe that if you increase the cost of the water when one family use more than fifty litres of water every months they will began to reduce the amount of water that they use. Finally, I was talking with an engineer that explain to me that more of the fifty per cent of the machines that use water that are of the State are very old and your government should change because they waste a lot of water and if you changed it for new ones the amount of water that they use will be reduced.

I wish you will try to change some of the things that I show in this card.

Yours faithfully,

Nathan Drake



Fifa allows Barcelona to sign new players

Barcelona will be able to buy players this summer because the FIFA have suspended the sanction that they put to the Barça cause of the problems with the transfer of some football players.
However, the President of the FIFA have explained that the suspension of the sanction is temporally because the decision if the club is guilty or not won't be make public after some months.
The Barcelona used different arguments to defence his position. One of them was that the delay of the decision will cause bad consequence t the club.
Thanks to this suspension the Barcelona will reform his football team this summer, one of the players that will arrive to the club is Ter Stegen or Alen Halilovic.



In my opinion, the Barcelona has a lot of problems to solve. Some of this problems are related with the corruption but others are related of his way to play. I wish that all the problems will finish for this club.

Today I'm in the Sahara because I want to do an interview to one of the leaders of a Tuareg clan. The objective of this interview is learn more about the life of the Tuaregs in the desert.
Me: Hello, good morning Abid (name of the leader).
Abid: Hello, good morning Anton.
Me: At first, Shall I ask if how many times have you see raining in this desert?
Abid: I have never see a cloud in this desert but my father told me when I was young that fifty years ago He saw a storm near the oasis of Manela.
Me: How many people are in your clan? How do you do to feed all the members?
Abid: We are ten man, twenty woman, fifteen children and more than fifty camels. We don't have any problems to feed all my family (referring to his clan) because we have a lot of animals with us like sheeps and we can drink water in the twenty different oasis that are in the west sahara.
Me: Have you ever been lost in the desert?
Abid: I have never been lost in this desert, You should think that this desert is like your neighbourhood I know every dune of the desert, every oasis and every city.
Thank you Abid for ask my questions I was surprised about your answers. One day I will go with you in a journey but first I need to prepare myself for a wild journey. Thanks to all our reader, the next week I will be in the city of Egypt and I will visit the pyramids.

Are we to dependent on mobile phone?



The Mobile phone allows people talk with everybody, play games, know all the news very quickly… Is the mobile phone becoming a necessity in our life?
At first, the mobile phone is an object that helps people when they have an emergency or when they need to communicate something important. I think that the problem began when we are all day using the phone, when we have to explain everything that happens to a friend. However, we explain a lot of things to our friends, not because they were particularly interesting, but simply because they happen.
A good example of the dependency of our society on the phone is when you have to say something to a friend that lives near you but you use the phone to talk with them. You never think the possibility of going to their home and talk with them.
To sum up, I believe that our society needs the phone because we are becoming a society of people that needs to be connected to survive.

Catalan government looks abroad for independence support

The Catalan government has open a website to try to have more international help for the independence of Catalonia. The website explain that the independence of Catalonia is not a politic staff is a civil decision. Then they explain the Catalan history and they have some interview with politicians explaining why they want the independence.
The objective of this website is have the possibility of vote the 9 of November after the negative of Madrid.
The surveys show that more than a half of the population want to vote on the 9 of November. The website have the support of a lot of associations and some political parties.



I believe that Spain should give the possibility to Catalonia, not because I want the independence because we have the right of being a nation.





Former Barça coach Tito Vilanova succumbs to cancer

Tito Vilanova has died at the age of 45 years cause of a cancer in the parotid gland. The former coach of the Barcelona was fighting with the disease during three years. He died after an operation on Thursday. He always said that his disease wasn't important and they accept his entrance and exit of the Hospital as current staff. Before Pasqua he enter to Hospital Quiron because his immunologic system was not working well. Tito Vilanova was a football until 2002 when he become coacher of the Figueres team. In 2007 he become assistant of Pep Guardiola and this couple has create the best team of the history winning 14 of 19 titles.
In my opinion, Tito Vilanova is a winner even that he died because he never accept to lose against the disease and he was fighting until the end.
