Anorexia Nervosa

All mental disorders, including anorexia occur against a background of loss of the Logos. Logos – the logic of the whole, this is the logic of existence itself. Logos – is the limit law. This is the same as Lao Tzu calls Tao, the Vedas and Upanishads RHS name: A Space Harmony, where opposites meet and disappear, where two become one, where there is no polarity, where all the paradoxes disappear, where no contradiction can not exist. The fact that Sankara calls Brahmin, Heraclitus calls the Logos. The human mind is logical and that logic is based on polarities.

It's as if you stood on one side of the river, seeing in it the other side – whatever you say, belongs only to this Bank .., but the river flows between two banks, the bank can not be one. The other bank can be hidden in the fog, he could be so far away that is not visible from your position – but there it is. And the other side is not opposed to this because deep at the bottom of the river they are found. This is one of the earth, and they were both accompanied by the river, like two hands or two wings .. The river flows between them, it exists as a harmony of the two banks. But you stand on one side and not see another – do you believe only in this beach, and you create a system of knowledge based only on information about this beach.

Some do not have basic sanitation facilities, and much less sophisticated medical technologies enjoyed by their counterparts in developed countries. With regard to the case which concerns us, the environment, we have various policies: severe, labile, soft, flexible, among others. If environmental problems is political in nature, thus it must be their treatment in the preparation of plans, programmes and projects for development. And so it must also be the articulation of the different levels of decision-making; i.e., you must try to promote debate and citizen participation, ensuring its effectiveness through environmental education, truthful information and other instruments of regional and local participation. Do nothing in this field is also a policy. The policy of not doing.

It is a policy in itself same. The lack or absence of a policy allows the establishment of production processes without adequate control, accepting its disadvantages, promoting its installation, in search of a supposed benefit of labour offer. We share the opinion of keep in mind, that the ultimate purpose of environmental policy is to guide development in order to achieve a satisfactory life for the population quality and make such development sustainable, fair and equitable. Be considered an environmental policy aims to achieve a sustainable development, however, economic, global and sectoral policies are formulated without considering the implications of long-term macroeconomic objectives, can lead to negative impacts on the environment. On the other hand the existing gap between the definitions of environmental policy and the actions and concrete results, indicate the need for generating tools that allow to direct political decision-making based on the revaluation of environmental resources, you should develop on the basis of three components: the economic, political and institutional, and concerning the production process and the atmosphere definitely the new Venezuelan Government, should pay more attention to their responsibility to protect the environment, review their policies, programmes, capitation and training of your staff as well as more responsibility to the productive sectors to the commitment to abide by the rules, laws and ensure that its operation is preceded by non-polluting processes. It is necessary as mentioned, that sustainable development will support changes in the way in which natural and human resources are used. Science and technology – and obtaining information are fundamental in this process. The generation and processing of information; transfer and adoption of technology; and its appropriate, rely on a well established environmental policy.

Need the State be linked more environmentally protective entities and other entities that play a decisive role of collaboration in Pro of favorable results, e.g. the universities that must have a role more participative and binding with the Government’s environmental programs. In the postgraduate program of the speciality of management of the quality and productivity of Faces of the University of Carabobo, emphasizes his line of research about production processes and environmental responsibility to their participants know how to properly handle production processes, energy utilization, taking into account what is drawn, that energy policy is an essential part of environmental policy. The energy use must be based on its effect on the quality of life, in conservation of energy sources, in the acquisition of environmentally benign sources and with potential commercial use. It is the responsibility of the graduate, not only to guarantee productive efficiency without contamination, but foster the development of an environmental culture which favours the country, linked and contribute to government programs involved in this area, so that it is reality everything is established, set in pro of a good environmental protection, supported favorable environmental policies.

Global Nature

Be timed for our planet. Global warming is reaching limits of no return. Experts warn that if the Earth’s temperature continues to rise there will be important consequences: thousands of species disappear, the sea level will rise and flood coastal areas and millions of people will suffer from the shortage of water and food. A future that we can still change. It is in our hands. Emissions of greenhouse gases will have to touch ceiling in the year 2020, according to climatologist W.L. Hare, and gradually reduce gradually until by the year 2050 we come to take the levels of the 1990s.

Since the 18th century, beginning of the industrial revolution, land has increased by almost a degree temperature. And it will be unavoidable, according to the latest report of the WorldWatchInstitute on the situation of the world 2009, that the temperature increase by one or two tenths in spite of our efforts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide. Scientists believe that the effects of CO2 even they have not impacted totally on temperature. And if the trend does not change in the coming years, the report warns that the global temperature will be 4 or 6 degrees above the current at the end of the 21st century. The thaw is the most visible consequence of the increase in global temperature. Projections announce that you by the end of the century, the Arctic summer ice will be almost disappeared.

Which will cause a change in the global climate since the poles and the permafrost are fundamental for the balance of climate, temperature, and ecosystems. In addition, coastal areas will disappear. Cities like New York or Tokyo, countries such as Belgium, Islands will be buried by water. And while flooding will occur, the flows of rivers decreases and the water will become a scarce commodity for millions of people. Water will continue to food shortages and conflicts, armed or not, by a few resources scarce, but essential for life factories and industry are not only responsible for the sending of CO2 to the atmosphere.
