An Inconvenient Truth

I watched the movie "An Inconvenient Truth" a few days ago and it is shocking, amazing, terrifying, all that at the same time!

It is shocking and terrifying because they give so many facts about all the global warming problems the earth is having that most of us haven't even heard of yet.

It is amazing because Al Gore makes it amazing, he gives a presentation about global warming, which is just amazing, he is such a great speaker and the best thing is that he is really committed to this global warming problem, so he goes through his presentation with great passion and he really cares, he really wants to make the whole world aware of this issue and its consequences. He also tells the audience some stories about his family, some problems he had and he also tells about how he felt when he lost the presidency of the United States, which buy the way it was something terrible, the world would be a lot better right now if he were the US president.

It's really important that we all take care of our environment, we need to recycle, save energy, put less and less C02 in the atmosphere or our planet and our homes are going to suffer awful consequences.

Watch An Inconvenient Truth, it really worth it!!

Save our planet - Recycle

Did you know that plastic takes at least three hundred million years to decompose? And did you know that plastic can be reprocessed or reused? A lot of materials can be recycled to create new products, for instance plastic, paper, glass and aluminum.

By reprocessing waste to recover reusable materials we help to preserve our natural resources; however, there are some countries where recycling is not a common practice. That is why governments should establish laws to motivate people to recycle.

By recycling our natural resources are better preserved, less waste would need to be treated and more money would be saved since old materials would be reused instead of having to create new ones. That is why our governments should established a law that helps people to recycle providing them with the necessary resources to do it. In this way, people would be more motivated to recycle not because it is a law but because it is necessary to help preserve our home planet.

Look at the picture on the left, it is a picture taken a national park named Tapanti in Costa Rica, it is such a beautiful place, ...

...where you can find a rain forest , animals, a beautiful river and a wonderful waterfall, think about it, we need to preserve that, our kids and grandkids have the right to be able to enjoy it too!

When you recycle YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE:

• Recycling Saves Natural Resources


• Recycling Saves Energy


• Recycling Saves our Environment


• Recycling Adds Value to the Economy


• Recycling is Good Business

Manuel Antonio - Costa Rica

From Landscapes

I went to Manuel Antonio a few years ago and I think is one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. It's clean and there you can go to the Manuel Antonio National Park where you can spend some time surrounded by nature, the forest is great along with the beach.

Traveling to Spain - Here are some tips

Here are some tips if you want to travel to Spain. I lived in Spain around 9 months and I traveled to several countries from there, so I kind of know what I'm talking about ;)

The Tips...

• If you need to find cheap airplane tickets go to http://www.travelprice.es. There is another site that a friend recommended me, I haven't used it though, http://www.vueling.com


• The best site to look for hostels is http://www.hostelworld.com, they actually have hostels from all over the world.


• If you need to travel by train in Spain, the train station website is http://www.renfe.es.


• There are a lot of bus lines that go from city to city, normally they are faster than a train since they go through the highways, they are cheaper than trains and you can buy the tickets by Internet. The only thing to consider is that you get really tired unless you can sleep in buses. Some information in http://www.auto-res.net, http://www.alsa.es or www.continental-auto.es


• For the metro in Madrid, they have tickets for 10 travels that costs around 5 euros and something. The single one costs 1.5 euros. These tickets also work in some bus lines, like the EMT ones.
