Hoe Green Are You?



Actually, this is a relevant and controversial topic, because the Global Warming’s theory and its dangerous consequences. For that reason has emerged a lot of friendly practices to prevent and to decrease its effects around the world.

For one hand, these practices we could learn them in our own houses; we don`t have to go to a specialized academy to obtain some information about that. In our personal computer we may look for information to prevent bad practices. 

For example, we could incorporate recycling practise in our own habits. I haven`t incorporated this habit in my behaviour. Anyway, there is some publicity that promote this conduct that allow use the garbage and not utilized material for produce new products; we could recycle plastic and papers or glasses.

Another example should be use a bike or a legs instead a car. I always prefer to walk or use my rollers for short distances… but when I go to my university I have to use the public transport because I spend about one and half hour to get there.

For another hand, there is a lot of eco-organizations than inculcate enviromentally friendly practices. I don`t supported anyone, because I’m involved in another organizations and I don`t have any time for this, and I really not interested in something like this. I believe that we have to get worried about the human being before, principally, teach them to safe the enviroment and not try to change or wash our minds.

Finally, I could say that  I haven`t done so much to reduce carbón footprint and I am not proud about that; I believe that is a common experience into my society, the Green style of life is missing in the society, since a simple idea that mention that is more convenient use a bus with one hundred of people than one hundred of cars.

My favourite class


How I said in older posts, I am studying psychology, an interesting career  in its different theory and paradigms, and different in its practise and techniques. I think that this is a strange, mysterious and attractive discipline, like some people who are studying actually this career.

In this career a class that I have considered like my favourite class had been “epistemology”. In all my life, I always had been interesting in philosophy and in the reflexive minds… epistemology for me is “the” conexión between a science or discipline like the psychology and the metaphysical thoughts; this last point make it very important to me.

Some psychologist just practise what they know, just practise their theories but usually they don`t doubt about what they know, about the origins and epistomologies approachs where their theories belong.

In my opinion, this is a damage for our discipline because I think that a really psychologist had to  know abput their own theories and practises in in depth. This idea willprevent harmful, mistakes and confusions with the people who we are working, that should be the last objective and purpose for our like professionals.

Finally, I think that the importance of epistemology in my own life as person and as professional will affect in my  reflection  and in my mind, because I will not accept anything what we think like “true”, if I don’t have any evidence about that…

Live the rationality that don’ forget our feelings

Thanks for reading,
Good luck in your lives.
