More than 12.000 kids died or suffered mutilations during 2018 due to war effects.

According to the Annual report of the United Nations General Organization for Children and Armed Conflicts published on Tuesday more than 24.000 children had their rights violated while other 12.000 where killed or mutilated, mostly by crossfire explosives or battle. This numbers are causing a lot of preoccupation in the organization after they noticed it is the highest number in history. Also other 7000 kids were involuntarily recruited for war during this same year around the world, mostly in Africa.
I think that all this conflicts are a shame but is way worse that children that don’t have anything to do with this and that can’t defend themselves are suffering because of the action of others. What do you think?

Why this year has been so dangerous for Mount Everest's climbers: Everest has always been extremely dangerous, but this climbing season has had 11 deaths so far, that are not related to one event as it usually is, but to several factors. Mountaineers have suggested difficult weather conditions, a lack of experience and the growing commercialization of expeditions are contributing to the danger.   During the week beginning May 20, crowds of climbers became stuck in a queue (fila) to the summit (cima), above the mountain's highest camp at 8,000 meters. Most people can only spend a matter of minutes at the summit without extra oxygen supplies, and the area where mountaineers have been delayed is known to many as the "death zone." (It causes high altitutes sickness) Alan Arnette, who has climbed Everest four times, explained that Nepal issued a record number of permits to foreigners this year. Because each of them requires a Sherpa guide, there are about 800 pe...

Yesterday (7/05/19) one student was killed and eight were injured in a school shooting in Colorado, Usa. The police hasn't reveiled the identity of the shooters yet but it is believed that it was carried out by two two students; a boy and a girl. It took place in the middle school and witnesses declare that the victim, who was identified as 18 year-old Kendrick Castillo who was graduating in three more days, tackled the student in order to give the others time to escape but died in the attempt. This type of news make me really angry because american politicians knows that the real solution to this problem is implementing a tougher policy on control but like many of them are being payed or are related to weapon factories they prefer to implement inefective policies such as metal detectors or even allowing teachers to carry guns and is more than clearer that this is not working and I don't think is fair that kids have to study in that environment and continue to die because of n...

USA Huawei Ban

  Recently, with technological advances coming from every country, tension has risen to determine who will be the first country to developed a fully fleshed 5G communications system. A company from China called Huawei, has made several advances and was planning to give its services to a great part of Europe and other parts of the world. However, due to previous suspicions of spying from the Chinese goverment and a supposedly stealing of vital government information, the USA has decided to ban Huawei from doing business with any company from the United States of America without a previous approval from the goverment. In addition to this, the USA has urged its allies and economical partners to cut ties with Huawei, threatening to stop sharing confidential information with them. As a consequence, the Chinese company has been cut from using services such as Google, processors from Intel and Qualcomm, and software from Microsoft and other US companies, leading to a dip in sales and a b...
