greatwlchinaRecently, the Chinese people celebrated 60 years of communism and the formation of the Peoples Republic of China. In that time the country has transformed from a nation of farmers into one of the most powerful economies in the world. What’s China like today, and more importantly, what’s it like for tourists and what is the future of tourism in China?

China is actually a vibrant and rapidly developing economy. It’s now one of the strongest in the world, and every Chinese person is proud of their heritage.

Almost everywhere you go in China you can see people who are proud and respectful. As the world looks on, many are uncertain as to what China is about and there is still a great deal of mystery about what will become of this country, as it has rapidly transformed into a major global superpower.


Borrowing dishes from around the world – The cuisine of Portugal

By

During the 17 and 1800’s Portuguese influence was expanding rapidly with the advancement of naval shipping and trade. Before long the customs, traditions and most importantly foods, came back home with them when the voyage was done. After 200 years, there are few dishes or ingredients around the world that Portugal has not borrowed or integrated into the cultural cuisine.

The most common types of food you will find in Portuguese cuisine are hearty and inexpensive. They are fond of using various spices and other indigenous ingredients including cinnamon, vanilla, saffron, and several types of nuclear-strength hot peppers. Their food is highly reminiscence of the neighboring Arabian and Moorish specialties. The spices used in Portugal’s cuisine follows along with the seasons, and of course (jus like most of us) the average price at market.


How to prepare a future without oil?

By

They are already alternatives for vars, but not for planes yet! So, enjoy the style of travelling of today, the time is running short. And the situation gets worse, as politics interferes.

Clean energy advocates and activists have noted for decades that the barriers to a clean energy transition are political, not technical. Today, particularly in the United States, this is more apparent than ever.

Oil is at the core of issues like the health of our communities, global warming, war, and developing country debt. The profits of the oil companies have increased just as the price of gas for all of us has gone up. But whats good for Exxon, Chevron, and others is not necessarily good for the rest of us. Its time to ensure that our representatives represent us, not the oil companies. Its time for a separation of oil and state.

Global warming

I propose now this approach: global warming will probably cause many wars in the future, due to lack of water, foods and so on. There is a major danger that the half of the mankind and 46 countries will be involved in conflicts emerging from the climatic changes. major reasons: soil erosion, the rise of the sea level, the melting of the glaciers, stronger tempests. I can give a terrible example: in Peru almost all the drinking water comes from the melt of the glaciers. In 2015, also in 8 years from now, almost all the glaciers will be melted already! Consequently, 27 000 000 people, inhabitant of this country, will suffer from thirsty. Normally, the authorities could meet some measures to prevent a major crisis, but Peru enjoys only a little democratic experience, has many outbreaks of local conflicts, and has territorial problems with the neighbors Chile and Ecuador. You can get the final picture: chaos, insurgencies, massive displacement of populations.


Demographic bomb

The demographic bomb is ticking. Large parts of Asia, Africa and Latin America, nevertheless already overcrowded, keep on melting and multiplying at unbelievable rates. I think the animals are much wiser, they melt only in certain seasons, while the human melt every time. Animals even don’t melt any more, if they reach the critical population. In many countries, the critical population is far behind. 100 years ago , e.g., India was half covered by jungle and counted 200 millions inhabitants. Today there is hard to find jungle there any more (consequently is hard to find elephants, tigers and so on). And the population still grows, nevertheless is very poor in majority. I think, there is a close relationship between poverty and high birth rate.

I am very concerned about the future of the mankind and about the future of our planet. Are you too? If so, let me know your opinion, please.

In my opinion, there are several crucial questions for our planet.

- demographic bomb

- environmental problems

- global warming

- the lack of raw materials for the industry. Soon (30 years) there will be no oil on earth!

- the lack of drinking water and food in many countries
