Self-Evaluation

Self-Evaluation


On that time, I think that I’ve done a very good oral presentation, with a good use of vocabulary and presentation. It’s true that it was too short, it didn’t last 5 minutes, so I can understand the mark penalty, but an 8 is so good for me, now that I’ had done it just in a few time.

Story of stuff

The Story of stuff explains to us the actual economic system we have in our actual modern society in 20 minutes. Annie Leonard has been travelling around the world checking how all of our stuff and products get created and destroyed, during her travel, she decided to explain us how all the stuff we consume is produced and how it gets wasted.

I think some of the solutions of that problem would be: If we all buy only green products, crafted with ecologic stuff and without being damaging fot the environment, that industry will get more power and influence above the market, so most of the products would be non-damaging for the environment.
In the other hand, not all the products are efficient for the economy. All of the chemical and trash system is necessary to keep our economy on level, now we are obligated to keep buying stuff and consume, so the economy shall not fall. The problem is, if we all stop consuming and changing our actual system, the economic situation would change too, probably in a bad way. So the point is: yes, we must change our system, but we must do it in a way that doesn't involves too much. We could do it thanks to a technology that changes the way to produce without polluting the Earth too much.

Description of a place

San Francisco

San Francisco is one of the most important cities of California, and one of the biggest. It's located on the USA's west coast. Unfortunaly, the city is located just above a limit between two teutonic plaques, and it has caused a lot of earthquakes to the city.
Due to Its earthquake risk, San Francisco has become a great place for architects to work, all of its buildings are very resistent, and also beautiful. Some of San Francsico's interesting places are:

San Francisco's Chinatown: San Francisco's Chinatown is one of the oldest and largest in North America
.

The TransAmerica Pyramid: Is the tallest building in San Francisco.

The golden gate building: The Golden Gate Bridge of San Francisco is one off the city's icon, and one of the most recognised bridges around the world.

My favorite childhood TV show

When I was just a kid, I used to spend my weekend mornings watching the TV. Some TV shows that I remember and i liked a lot are : Pokemon, Shin Chan, Digimon, and a lot more... But my favorite TV show over the rest of all was Dragon Ball. I used to be a fanatic of that anime, even now I still being a huge fan of it, and I still watching its episodes sometimes to remind me how much I enjoyed it. I think i'll never forget that TV show, because it was one of the things with i grew up and it's very meaningful for me.
