The center of the town of Cee completely flooded. / MCS
Water Pearls "To be governed, nature must be obeyed" Francis Bacon
rains came and invaded more than simply everything. I see on TV the sorrowful face of people to the floods of recent weeks has left them with nothing and I hear amazed demands of them: "No law, politicians are crooks who do nothing, and we three floods. Something will have to do with the river to get him out of here! " (Countrywoman of Sabarís, dixit).
The phrase had its juice. For one thing very clearly expresses the feeling rooted in the welfare society that everything is resolvable, and that if something bothers us can and must change. Yes, they have to do other, Piove: porco ruled! We
neck with water disposed of our human condition and believe that what happens out there is not going with us, after all, science, technology and politics will come to deliver us from evil. So stupidly blind to not see that precisely the myth of the technical solution to our earthly problems is becoming a more serious problem than led intervention.
We take a joke nature with a child arrogance. We believe we can dominate your rules skipping kindergarten proved scientifically anesthetized with licorice.
can be constructed in natural river beds without regard to its flow. Housing can be multiplied without infrastructure. You can put all the crap out of our well water without waiting for the rivers and seas sneezing and all the smoke in our development without waiting for the air that we choke.
One of the most hear the words from here on out will undoubtedly be the word "waste" which means "what is left." And what is well-being of the whole world is wrapped in plastic, a world of huge mountains of garbage that we all cherish without wanting to know anything about them, not wanting to see or feel, throwing anyone knows where as long as they are not. But look, smell, feel and end up burying us in a kind of planetary Bens landfill while watching cable TV and calculate the final work make sense.
What bothers us the river?: Let him out of there!
This concerns us merdentono welfare, welfare is ours and the shit is politicians. And the politicians will take office and extraordinary budgets and subsidies waged not do nothing but strengthen the social perception that everything is controllable and what is not anyone's fault controlled and must be paid. Valiente irresponsible society we are building together, one for selling and other Arcadias impossible to fall into a comfortable illusion to believe it filling up your waste and soul of grant.
have to be stupid to buy a house by the sea and pretend the sea is not moved from its site. You have to be dumb-ass to throw the water everything imaginable and think that what goes into the limbo of the shit that is not in our world. We
waters.
rare rains, the forests burn, the seas will rise, remain thousands of creatures extinct every day, the sun will burn ... and no one will wonder what is going wrong, no one will lose a second to think he should resign his dollhouse you step on the neck to the River. We will continue to demand political responsibility to continue betting on the arranxosantes daring to put a stop to both delirium and say enough to so boldly disguised welfare, urban planning and development sustainable.
They say that the god Indra was so capricious that decided to cover the entire sky with a huge network. At each point of intersection of wires placed a precious pearl, a pearl so exquisitely polished that it was able to reflect in it all the others, so that if anyone dared to touch one of the pearls, something changed in all others.
There are many people who made necklaces with pearls, others that have been replaced by subdivisions and others who have a poke putting in place Extraperlo crystals. And while we all wonder why being so handsome and so cute with a little flat, the sky has stopped shining and the river has become so silly.
politicians fix it, those who understand development fence, hymns and flags, languages \u200b\u200band time zones, licenses and grants ... anything but pearls. Ignorant
everyone that we are only a pearl in that reflects everything we do. So it goes.
