Large schools are people who will no longer be questioned from the time they graduated. However, life is dynamic. There are people who did nothing to twenty five years and can be extraordinary ten years later. There are people who have not made the schools in question and who can bring something new. The fact that one can read the card of someone aged 50 "Alumnus of Polytechnic, is a high grotesque. We need more plasticity.

Developing teamwork

Add to this a national characteristic: the Franco-French rivalry. There is no teamwork or very little. In Anglo-Saxon, teamwork is so normal, it has been prepared. Here, we maintain our habit to hide our copy to the neighbor is not looking. This behavior is embedded. We see in departmental rivalries where absolute rather bury a folder to circulate. All this is cons-productive. There are cultural habits very deep in there, some will tell you that it's very "Gallic".

INEQUALITY AND DEPENDENCY IN TODAY'S WORLD: INFANT MORTALITY

The infant mortality rate is often used as an indicator of the status of a country's development in the field of health. Infant mortality refers to deaths of children born alive during the first year of life. The infant mortality rate is usually based on the number of infant deaths per 1 000 live births in a given year.

I DIVISION OF THE WORLD POPULATION

The Earth is populated by 6 billion people, 40% in Asia with two great centers of population: * East Asia: China, Korea, Japan * South Asia: India Other homes are in europe (500 billion), the North - Eastern States - States. Vast areas are almost uninhabited. Regions with strong climatic constraints, such as cold (Siberia), drought (Sahara), excessive moisture (the Amazon), or severe physical constraints (Himalayas) are sparsely populated.
However, natural factors do not explain everything because some regions to climatic and physical constraints are very difficult populated: dry regions such as Texas, humid regions (Indonesia), mountain regions (Andes). There is a coastalisation stand (stand was made from odds) that the current development of global trade favors.

The different growth

The population growth is not the same from state to state. We can distinguish 2 groups of countries: * The North -> low or negative growth, * The South -> much have strong growth. There are more differences than in the north. Africa stands out. All these differences are due to the position of each country in demographic transition. Northern countries have completed their demographic transition. To the South, some have ended (India, China), others are in late transition and other, as in Africa, are in transition. Under this heading, the population of these countries is either young or older. The countries 'young' population in transition face the needs of a growing population. They therefore have problems of development.

Development

A developed country is a country that manages to satisfy basic needs of its population (health, housing, education, etc ...). Today, we measure the development level of a country by placing a scale on which the HDI (Human Development Index). This index includes 3 criteria: longevity, knowledge and standard of living. We note that most countries with high HDI are located in the northern hemisphere, hence the expression "North - South". Two country groups stand out: * high HDI: Northern countries, rich countries, industrialized countries, developed countries. The population of these countries represents 20% of world population but consume 80% of global wealth. * Medium or low HDI; South, poor countries, countries of the third - world countries development.

NORTH OF AN INCREASINGLY HETEROGENEOUS

The North consists of 3 "centers" that are centers of leadership in the global economy. They control the flow core (pattern of trade, goods, people, capital, information). These three centers or triads are the United States, the Western Europe and Japan. Other northern states are less important place less importance such as Canada or Australia and others are in a state of dependence vis - à - vis the triad: Eastern Europe and Russia. Finally, some states are newly incorporated as the NICs (newly industrializing countries) in Asia is called the 4 dragons.

THE DIVERSITY OF "SOUTH"

A first group of oil exporting countries located in the Arabian peninsula and which have very high incomes. Countries that have a strong economy is fairly diversified. These are the NICs or middle-income countries. There are those who have a large area, a large population like Brazil, Mexico, Algeria and who instead have a small territory but have very dynamic industrial sectors, such as Thailand, Malaysia which is called small or baby Dragons Tigers. China and India are major powers capable of living independently. About fifty states located primarily in Africa and whose standard of living declines. These are the LDCs (Least Developed Countries).

The cat in the world today

All those and all those who live with a cat (or cat with them) know what I mean. The holiday period as expected, turning quickly tear when leaving mistigri, to give to friends or leave the board. Those sad eyes, mewing plaintively and the particular vengeance upon your return, the indifference or even scorn you would almost lose the desire to leave. We must solve it, it will make you drool, but it is inevitable to reduce the stress of separation, you can always choose a destination that will purr in the lungs of cats that bite you.

The air pollution has various effects on health and the environment is a local phenomenon, continental and global

The air pollution has various effects on health and the environment is a local phenomenon, continental and global heating, evaporation of solvents and hydrocarbons, fumes from factories and gas produced by vehicles are the source of air pollution. Getting added to the indoor or the offices of tobacco smoke, fumes from heaters individual kitchens, radon, ... etc.. The air pollution is both an affront to our quality of life and our health. It is also harmful to the environment and the atmosphere (acid rain, photochemical pollution, the hole in the ozone layer, greenhouse effect, ...). The geographic scale relevant to analyze the phenomena of air pollution ranging from very local (eg odors, effects of particles, benzene, health ...) global (eg greenhouse effect caused by emissions of carbon dioxide) through regional phenomena or Continental (acid rain or photochemical pollution - ozone formation for example).
