My future contribution to the world

 


Hi there!

Today I´m going to talk about a little of me, about my contribution to the world with the carreer that I´m in, called "Forest Engineering" which I hope graduate in two years. My best definition of my carreer is: "The forest engineer is a person who manage the ecosystem for obtain goods and services and then provide to the people and society them. Actually, that definition should consider concepts like sustainable development, circular economy and other actions that the globalization brings. The global heating is the cause of creation of all concepts told before, because the world try find ways to cool down the temperature of our green house.

So, what is the role of forest engineer in that problem? Well, for some years now there has been talk that forests have been an important role in stopping the warming by consumption of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, therefore they are called "carbon sinks", also the forest is a bringer of services. And who have to regulate the forest for that important process is the forest engineer, finding ways to create basics services of nature for people but doing decreasing residuals and avoiding deforestation and allowing forestation and reforestaion. In this way, it can pssible maintain ecosystem services for longer and increase the area of forests for greater carbon sequestration for a better health of the world. Finally, I would consider a forest engineer as a doctor of forests, and along the same lines, of our biome.

Thanks for read! regards.

An empty street in Valdivia


Hello again! 

This photo was taken by me on my mini-holidays in Valdivia, Chile in the last september in early spring in a cloudy day, and shows a long street that ends in the horizon, in the Miraflores neighborhood with old cars and low-rise houses with chimneys. In the sky, the sun appears large and bright because the clouds reflect much of the light. 

The reasons I like this photography is becuse, first, I consider that is a simple photo but represent well he other part of the city far away of tourism. Second, all these nuans told before, make it seem Valdivia of look like a very old city, like the typical image of London of yesteryear full of fog, with smoke emanating from the chimneys. Also, because it brings back good memories of a very beautiful and welcoming city that I would like to visit again.

See you in  a new post, regards.

Pets and Animals

 Hey, Hi there!

Today I am going to talk to you about pets, specificly, the pets that I have had and still have. 

My relations with animals ever had very good, I have had around of four pets in my life, altought, most of them lamentably have died for different reasons, my first pet, called "Kiara" was stolen when she had one year and I never could find her. After, my parents gives me a new pet which I called "Luna" like the colour of its coat, she was very happy and from one moment to the next, she relapsed due to illness that caused her a lot of harm because of which she had to be put down. 

Those moments have provoked me deep sadness in some points of my life, although it's not all sadness with my pets, because, 1 year ago, I picked up a dog that was lying in the street and I got attached to him so quickly, that I didn't hesitate to bring him home. I called "Mufasa" like the "Lion King" movie, due to its a very big dog at his short age. With him we go to climb the hill, strolling the streets to far away. he has been a very important companion in these times when no one has had a good time and for that I love him.

That's is my blog for today, i hope that i like you if it yes, let me a comment below. See you all later!

My technological device

 Hi again!

I have ever liked technologicals devices but my favourite one, in this moment and because I need it, is my computer desk which I got it when the pandemic become a reality. The reason why its my favourite is because I find it usefully a lot for making differents things in a comfortable way, such as chat with your friends, know what things they do, search funny videos, many forms of entertaining, read books and documents. 

For the other side I need it because is my study platform in my carreer, its fundamental for work of a great way and gives me lot of time for make other things, this because is fast and effective. My lessons are from monday to friday and then I use my PC all these days includin weekends when I have works to do.

The principal things that I use my computer for work now is for an assignature called Geomatic Tools where I may use QGis, a program for georeference and remote sensing, where necessarily must have a computer, otherwise i cant work and complete my jobs. That´s why because is a indispensable device for me, and will be it 😅.
