Essay

Background:

Today in Chile, there  are so many problems that are not resolved. Some of these problems are caused by the government and its corruption for the control of all the business by the foreign people. The expropriation of all the natural resources it’s a reality that grows more and more every day thankful of the capitalism.

This economic model is defined as an economic and social system based in the private property in the use of the media of production. Capitalism, make people to be individualistic, selfish and very consumerist.

There is a monopoly that’s control everything, this group it’s little and has all the power of Chile. The people who are part, has a lot of money because they are the boss of the biggest business in Chile.

The industries are installed on the large of de country and it is killing all the flora and fauna. For example, in Concepción, there so many forestry because “the powerful people” installed the monoculture of pines. As we know, the monoculture of this tree make so many problems, like forest fires, loss of the water and nutrients of the floors, and specially the loss of the native forest.

Problem:

Nowadays the attention is located in the coastal zone, specifically Quintero. Industrial zone, zone of environmental sacrifice. The problem here, is that, as in all extractivist companies, there is no regulation of damage to the environment, much less the people close to these places. There is a large population, people who would surely emigrate from there, they would, who live in conditions of extreme unhealthiness. The quality of air, water and land are contaminated by the waste left by transnational industries and companies, which in no way benefit the inhabitants of the area. Moreover, hospitals have been collapsed by children intoxicated by the Pollution of pollutants in the air.



This area of ​​environmental and human sacrifice is endorsed by the politicians and rulers of the day, who in their priorities is not the health of people, much less the care for biodiversity and ecology. Here there are much greater interests of power and money, which do not allow us to reverse this situation.



Proposed solution:



It is difficult to reach a solution in these terms, the enemy is much more powerful. The inhabitants of Quinteros have waged an admirable struggle to protect the children of the future, to protect their environment and their home. Against the precariousness of life and in favor of the dignity of all, but they are not heard. They are basic things for the human being, but the population is repressed by the police, silencing them and the media only covers the excesses.
