Inspiration for a new world!

The  Weekly Change

Thursday 21st February 


Time for a new approach

After good intentions to start blogging last year in which i was to give daily posts regarding my studies or general interest, its safe to say it never really worked out as i only managed to last three day. For many reasons I'm sure it never worked out but the main one is probably my choice to post daily and randomly to what it consisted. This time however iv'e decided to take a fresh approach and post weekly in the form of a newspaper or magazine for example which should maintain my interest. The post will be sectioned to different topics and stuck to each week, this first post will be a example and will hopefully develop with each week that passes. The posts will start with a quick introduction, followed then by the more serious topics of environmental/science, political/modern living then a entertainment/arts section. All of which are stories that are totally from my perspective as I'm probably the only one reading them making it just as much a diary as a report so to speak.



Environment/science

Better design the key to sustainability

Recent reports and figures have shown that in some countries the cost of wind power is much less than a fossil fuel such as coal, figures show that in Australia it would cost between $80 to $113/MWh compared to $176/MWh for coal. This cheaper rate is the product of better designs and technology that have improved the efficiency. With governments struggling or pretending not to struggle towards reaching vital greenhouse gas emission aims in the future surely its a good idea to push this forward globally.



Politics/modern living


The flame within

Politics is something I'm a bit of newcomer to so I'm very much a novice to what i know, this i believe is what the governments want us to be like as somebody uneducated on a particular subject is easy to manipulate about it. For this weeks section I'm simply going to leave you with a video clip from former Labour MP Tony Benn that sparked something within me to learn to understand and do something about the emotions i feel.




Entertainment/arts


Just do it: A tale of modern outlaws

This week i watched a documentary about climate activism, which certainly opened my eyes to lengths companies and large organisation to governments will go to keep people from using their power to do whats right or make a change in this world. On a positive note what the film shows is that no matter how much the human spirit is suffocated it will always find a way, shown by the people documented, Just do it is a absolute must watch because if people understood how unjust the world is, the more they would want to get out their and do something.

Finally....

Well after a weekend of all play no work, I've pulled my finger out and started my second assignment TMA02 which is based on the second book titled Earth and space!



With all going well i should have finished and submitted the assignment as well as completing my second iCMA by this time next week, watch this "space"...................

Not tonight i'm afraid..........

Well with the entire house to myself tonight it looks like i'll be taking advantage by indulging myself with the remanding chapters of my second book of the module titled "Earth and space"

Despite the rallying calls from friends and family to fill my gut with Guinness i shall be resisting as i do tend to use the motto of "i'll finish that activity tomorrow" or "i'll read it after the weekend", this is because before i know it i'll be a few days from the deadline for my next TMA and iCMA without even starting it which will not be happening!

If my update tomorrow is full of spelling error's and makes no sense, i may have been a bit naughty......................
