Ecological Awareness As ecological awareness is going to impose between the population (a process slow but we believe that inexorable) emerging alternatives to try to make our day more respectful as possible to the environment. Ultimately, our actions are sustainable. And in this sense, the newspapers, that we carry every day, are the most important. That is why that seemingly innocent action put our purchase in a plastic bag, but majority, is in decline. Against this option arise other alternatives, such as cloth bags. We know that when it comes to recycling, plastic bag is a problem, then that tax to its distribution with the intention of encouraging their use have been implemented in some countries (such as Ireland or Hong Kong) (something that in Ireland, for example, has managed it to make). So whereas alternatives, they are more sustainable and that, of course, we are just as useful. As we said, this is the case of cloth bags. Thanks to the material that are made, allow us to reuse them many more times than the plastic. The latter end up breaking just we have used them a few times (and sometimes even before). However, the fabric, we can use it again and again, hundreds of times. Clear, this last point is important to keep this in mind to adequately weigh the price of ones and others. Cloth bags cost more than the plastic, is true, but can be used many times. And, of course, they are greener. On the other hand, and although not seem to some people an argument in its favour, in this world of today where things increasingly last less, even personal relationships seem to be throwaway, we think it is good idea start changing this trend to temporality. Of course that by using a cloth bag or...

Alcohol Consumption According to the problems that you can generate, we can identify four types or patterns of consumption: - non-problematic consumption.-consumption risk.-consumption dangerous or problematic-harmful or pathological consumption there is agreement in the consumption of risk considered a daily intake of between 40 and 70 grams (between 50 cc and 90 cc) of pure alcohol (between 4 and 7 UBE - unit of standard drink (UBE) indicates the average content of alcohol in the most frequent forms of) consumption, and 10 grams of pure alcohol it represents. Each UBE is the approximate equivalent of a cane of beer, a glass of wine or half cup of a distilled beverage-, or a non-daily consumption with a weekly sum of more than 280 grams of pure alcohol, although not drunkenness is never reached. The concept of harmful consumption is coined by the who ICD - 10 by appointing those who have physical or psychological problems as a result of the consumption of alcohol, regardless of the amount consumed. ABUSE: The concept of abuse is understood as not to exceed the dose that our body can metabolize, and by another, a component that has to do with the circumstances of consumption. It is the consumption that has negative consequences for the health of people and which can also adversely affect others. Examples: drinking and exceed the limits of alcohol if then it has drivers, get drunk, do not always mix alcohol with certain medications, etc is easy to establish the boundaries between use and abuse. Usage: Is the consumption that does not negatively impacts on the health of the person who uses the drug nor hurts people around. Examples: drink a glass of champagne at a party after having dined (responsible consumption), a medication sent by the doctor (healthy). HABIT: Is the consumption that...
