French Photographer,Antoine Passerat (1971) lives in Barcelona.After eight years combining his photographer with his professional carees in Marketing with Danone Group in Paris,New York and Barcelona .He decided to dedicate himself fully to photography.Since them he had been realized numerous institutional or corporate assignments (Vanity Fair Intimate,Carlson Wagon lit,Adecco , Moet Henessy,Puig Prestige,conseil general de l’ain,Inditex) and has been pursuing his own photographic author approach.
His work about everyday light and intimacy.In 2006 he has been chosen as a finalist for the already famous “Jeu de Dame”.
WERI chosen A.Passarat to communicate to the world the true face of poeple around the world.
Mystery of building - the Pyramides is very simple building and smart tekniques and ways:
1. Build a small one and tell to each generation to cover the pyramide with other layers of stones and so on creating pyramides on top of each other. This help to be able to world from the top to lift easy the materials and pour the mixed concrete in different forms and shapes to look as natural stones.They cud even build some simple equipment to lift all materials(fillers,cement,water) up in the small conteners and weight.This is the old way of building the pyramides.
2. The new way is to build pyramids with the help of many different ramps and the pyramid floors for the fast transportation of the materials and as the smartes way of building the pyramid. This way is shown here in the video and it is the best way to build the pyramids today. Of course concrete will be mixed in the spot in the giant stone shape.
The global warming controversy is a dispute regarding the nature and consequences of global warming. The disputed issues include the causes of increased global average air temperature , especially since the mid-20th century, whether this warming trend is unprecedented or within normal climatic variations, and whether the increase is wholly or partially an artifact of poor measurements. Additional disputes concern estimates of climate sensitivity, predictions of additional warming, what the consequences are, and what action should be taken (if any). Individuals, corporations, and political organizations are involved, so the debate is vigorous in the popular media and on a policy level.
The earth has warmed up by about 0.6ºC in the last 100 years. During this period, human emissions of greenhouse gases have increased, largely as a result of the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. …An increase in the average temperature of the earth’s atmosphere, especially a sustained increase sufficient to cause climatic change. Most scientists believe that a rise in carbon dioxide levels (caused by automobile, power plant, and other emissions) will lead to further global warming.The greenhouse effect acts to warm the plant and increase average global temperatures. This is seen as a major environmental hazard as average temperatures rise, leading to a possible change in weather patterns and agricultural output… All greenhouse gases contribute to the ‘trapping’ of infrared radiation, hence heat, in the lower atmosphere. Due to the relative sizes of the GHG molecules, some trap more than other. Methane for instance has ten times the Global Warming potential (GWP) of carbon dioxide. …
UN DEVELOPMENT GOAL CAMPAIGN Jeffrey Sachs and Angelina Jolie Defined Climate Change and will to change in order to achieve goals.
Attribution of recent climate change is the effort to scientifically ascertain mechanisms responsible for relatively recent changes observed in the Earth’s climate. The effort has focused on changes observed during the period of instrumental temperature record, when records are most reliable; particularly on the last 50 years, when human activity has grown fastest and observations of the upper atmosphere have become available. The dominant mechanisms to which recent climate change has been attributed all result from human activity. They are:
increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases
global changes to land surface, such as deforestation
increasing atmospheric concentrations of aerosols.
Fifty Indian rupees. That’s about a dollar and 28 cents at current exchange rates — not enough to buy a cup of coffee most places.
But in northeast India’s Darjeeling District, 50 rupees is a day’s pay for hard-working tea pickers. Four hundred miles away, another half-million earn a similar wage plucking tea leaves in Assam’s humid lowlands.
Tea dominates the economy of both Darjeeling and Assam, names synonymous with some of the world’s best teas. Strong, malty Assam and golden-hued, fragrant Darjeeling teas have been prized above others for more than 150 years.
And during that century and a half, living conditions for tea workers have changed very little.
Pluckers and other tea-industry workers live in small, densely populated villages hemmed in by tea fields. A tea estate is essentially a community unto itself, a company town where the land, the houses — everything — belong to the tea company. Nothing can be changed without the consent of management; in most cases, not even a family garden can be planted without consultation.
In these present-day peasant communities, deteriorating houses typically shelter multiple families. Neither electricity nor running water is commonplace. Hygiene is poor: hundreds of people use a few nearly overflowing latrines. And, when schools exist at all, classes are often conducted under makeshift shelters or trees with few classroom materials.
Across northeastern India’s fabled and troubled tea lands, Mercy Corps is partnering with socially conscious tea estate owners and managers to right several generations of wrongs — and to give a louder voice and greater opportunities to the region’s families.
A little something for the Lost fans! Spoof Oceanic Air advert for season 4.
ABOUT LOST
After Oceanic Air flight 815 tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a Pacific island, its survivors were forced to find inner strength they never knew they had in order to survive. But they discovered that… (more)the island holds many secrets, including a mysterious smoke monster, polar bears, a strange French woman and another group of island residents known as ‘The Others’. The survivors have also found signs of those who came to the island before them, including a 19th century sailing ship called The Black Rock, the remains of an ancient statue and bunkers belonging to the Dharma Initiative, a group of scientific researchers
Je ne voudrais pas que ma déchéance,
Soit la résultante de leur exigence,
Je ne voudrais pas que mon existence,
Soit la damnation de leur prétendue intelligence,
Je ne voudrais pas que ma vie,
soit une vie sans envie!
Ma pénitence peut elle avoir de repentance ?
Lorsque je regarde ma descendance,
Permettez -moi de ne point imaginer leurs échéances
Elles seront fort prolablement décadentes;
Ou va donc ce monde?
Lorsque je m’en irais au pays de mes pères,
Lorsque je m’en irais au pays de mes ancêtres,
Lorsque je transcenderais au royaume terminal,
De ceux dont je porte l’espérance,
A défaut de porter le nom :Dian Kouamé Wilson, Felix Houphouet Boigny,Cheick Anta,Douala Manga,Martin luther, Victor Schoelcher et tout les maîtres de la confrererie des silencieux…
Je leur dirais que notre monde n’est plus monde,
Que la terre n’est plus terre,
Le ciel n’est plus ciel;
Que la vie pourrait ne plus être vie,
Car notre environnement,
Subit toute sorte de pourissement,
Voici que le temps avance,
Et la prière de mon intérieur en chair s’élève,
Oh ciel! Préserve notre terre!
Et toi homme, prend enfin soin de notre mère, la terre…

BASILIQUE NOTRE DAME DE LA PAIX DE YAMOUSSOUKRO (Côte d’Ivoire)
Le rechauffement climatique a provoqué depuis les 20 dernières années des conséquences sur nos régions,l’ouragan Katrina a détruits des millions d’hectares de régions dans le monde principalement la Nouvelle Orléan au Etats Unis, Australie… , les ravages s’étendent aussi sur les côtes Africaines Notamment sur le Golf de Guinnée.En côte d’ivoire des villages entiers de pécheurs se font emporter par l’océan.
Avec ses 400 km de Côte la côte d’ivoire a sa capitale politique et spirituelle à environ 265 km des côtes. La Basilique Notre Dame de La Paix de Yamoussoukro jumelle et annexe de Saint Pierre Rôme se trouve dans le colimateur de l’avancée de l’océan.
Rejoignez nous nombreux pour prévenir, sensibiliser les gouvernements, protéger les cimetières, les villages, les populations et les villes Côtières des conséquences du réchauffement planétaire et des futurs déplacements de populations de réfugiés climatiques.
