Yesterday, June 19, was presented “The Future We Want”, the final document of the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. The big difference between the Rio +20 Conference and other UN is precisely the strengthening of the social aspects.

After many discussions and negotiations, the delegations reached a consensus on key issues such as strengthening the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the maintenance of the Rio+20 principles and the creation of the Sustainable Development Objectives for 2015.

Moreover, the document also broach issues such as poverty eradication, creation of a council with all UN Member States, the capacity expansion policy of environmental strategies and the creation of an intergovernmental policy forum of high level to discuss sustainability. About the green economy, does not define a single path. The concept is treated as a route to be followed considering the characteristics of countries.

    I live close to a little big jewel island in the Atlantic sea. Its called El Hierro, and this little island with a shape like a heart is being the top place on Gea about clean energies, love to environment and Nature… a nice beginning for a new Age. This island is becoming the first on Gea being able to consume just its own clean energy. Autosuficiency and clean methology. Here there is th eidea of changing all vehicles into electric ones. Very interesting posibilities starting to be born, like putting points of electric chargers in bars and so… Even thinking about charging batteries with clean sources of energy to charge later the cars. The dream of complete clean energy circle. Some help is needed to power all these dreams up quicker. From a little place can shine the biggest sun.
    And not only here, From the little places inside us can make shine brightly the golden gleams of a new future Sun. If we want, if we think, we can do it. Future is coming nice. Don´t let human today interests close the doors to a tomorrow better human evolution.
