walk through the neighborhood I saw something that I do not know why, I was saddened:
Yes, it is a collection of VHS videos of Jacques Cousteau in the garbage. Videos of a public nature, the environment, forming ecological consciousness, love the sea and its creatures, reported as few, next to a municipal waste container waiting to be scrapped.
The reason is, surely, something as mundane and understandable as the former owner does not have the appropriate reader for a video system now obsolete and I think that has a more modern, and comforts me to think that something has left outside of the container, not inside, perhaps in the hope someone still be interested, an opportunity for recycling. Although I would be unable to throw, call me romantic or nostalgic, I do not know.
I could not help linking the image with the still ongoing Copenhagen Conference on Climate Change, mostly in the direction that leads to now, the truth is that there seems to be out of it nothing new, nothing commits participating countries to do something really important to take initiatives to combat climate change. It seems that I wanted to be a meeting to give solutions to important problems of our environment, will end up like those videos of Cousteau: in the garbage.
