Hello mates, the video I'm going to talk
about today is "David after dentist" (you can search it in youtube by
this name). Well, it is about a kid who has just gone to the dentist and he's
under medicine (gas, I think). He can't realize if he's dreaming or not, he
does a lot of fun things while his dad is filming and laughing, but I think the
best part is when he was really calmed and quiet and suddenly screams like he’s
feeling the worst pain of his life. I
really like it because it was one f the first videos that makes me cried until
I cried. The first time I saw was when a friend showed it me, like 2 years ago.
We were waiting at the bank to do some stuff and everyone was quiet, we laugh
really loud and all the people watch us with a “you’re so nut” face. It was a
little embarrassing but nothing to die for. I really suggest you to watch this
video and be careful not to drink water before you do it, you could pee on your
pants (I almost did).

Major palm oil companies accused of breaking ethical promises
This New
talks about Pal Oil companies situated in Asia and Africa that don’t respect
land rights of local people, damaging wildlife and destroying forests. There is
concern about the environmental and social impacts of the result of plantations
across the forests, caused by the growing global demand for palm oil. Is such a
problem that communities in Asia and Africa are being pushed aside to make way for
large plantations, which could induce the loss of the tiger.
There is a
concession of palm oil companies called Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil
(RSPO) that certificates
the product is sustainable and that tries to regulate and guide these companies
to use good practices over land and plantations. They admit that there is a
huge problem and maybe some companies are abusing and ignoring human rights,
but they also say that there is no legal compulsion on members to
comply with RSPO's principles and criteria. They give no solution, but
member companies can simply opt to leave the RSPO and not be ruled by them
anymore.
Geography studies the physical and human characteristics of environment,
for this reason it is a geographic problem because the land as property and in
relation with human activities generates a conflict that has effects in the environment
and in local people.
