Resources
Human pressure over nature may be the end of a civilization. Our towns are getting larger and larger, today's villages are living a low moment. Their inhabitants leave for the towns looking for a more comfortable life, which is understandable, but it means a completely different lifestyle.
We are over-using natural resources, water for example. And the revolution that could make the big difference is far away.
Severe droughts and abuse empty our water reservoirs. El Burguillo in the South of Ávila is getting smaller and smaller. However, cars go on crossing the bridge.
How long will it last?

No revolution will take place until we reach the bottom or a crisis occurs, I think.
We have a publicity spot that's going on two plans: two men speaking alternatively. One is young, at ease, in a well lit room, th second older, worried, in a dim place.Here it is, in short.
The young one starts: "We have no problem with heating our house"
"Heating is a big problem" says he older one.
"We use a lot of water" (the young)
"It was difficult learning to live with so little water."And so on. Then, in the end, the young one:"We'll have a son, to be born in November; his name will be Andrei"
And the older:"My name is Andrei. I was born in November 2007."
The idea is :how about our children? It sounds silly related like this, but it's impressive. At least to me. More should be done to make people aware.
