Mr. António Guterres

Secretary-Executive
United Nations
Sutton Place, Nueva York, USA

Dear Mr. António Guterres:

In recent years technology and science have advanced, making our daily lives easier, but at
the same time pollution has increased considerably, causing irreversible damage to our
planet.
Due to the increase in factories and industrial areas, many water sources have been
polluted, air pollution has increased, mainly from thermal power plants that burn fossil
fuels, and the production of greenhouse gases has worn down the ozone layer.

Fortunately, not everything is bad. Thanks to technology, new, more environmentally

friendly forms of energy have been developed, such as solar energy, as well as systems for
the environmentally friendly disposal of chemical waste.

I think that the important is to know how to make use of technological advances and not
being carried away by ambition.

According to Dinero magazine, consumers are looking for unique, sophisticated, good
quality, value-added products that are related to artisanal processes and sustainability. The
industry tries to satisfy this demand, bringing to the market increasingly advanced
technological prototypes, which in turn are leaving a great irreversible environmental
impact, because with technological progress also increases pollution and scarcity of natural
resources. At the moment the world powers are in a war for power and every day they want
to advance further by destroying the world in their wake. If we do not make a change and
continue to increase levels of consumption, in the end there will no longer be a place to live
in.

Our current environmental crisis is growing every day because of ourselves consumerism
and ambition. I think that is necessary be aware of this catastrophic situation, together we
can take actions and do it something for the planet, the change is made by each one of us.
United Nations can call on governments implement drastic measures and eco-friendly
technology to reverse the damage, the earth could be renovated and we will have a place to
live in for many years more.

Cordially,

Luis David Madariaga
