The cold has come


13 December 2022 - 09:05
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

The cold has come and it is increasingly difficult to cope with it. We citizens have been trapped in our maze and we are told that consumption will not skyrocket so as not to put heating to more than nineteen degrees. I do not want to look at whether it is enough or not, but I find it strange to say that the sellers of a product do not consume that product.

The cold has come and on a city floor, apart from gas or electricity, we have no other way of producing heat. Historically, fire has warmed houses, but in recent decades (this century) the fire has not been welcomed into cities.

When I bought the house I completely renovated it. It is a building over a hundred years old and the floor had a fire cooker and fireplace in the living room. We took everything off. Everything that could generate the fire had to be discarded and instead welcomed into induction. But induction doesn't warm up the environment.

The cold is ripening because they cut off the heat source and they are worth it. The comfort they sold us, but what a few crazy people once said, the first reflexes that show that this model was not sustainable, is true. This comfortable model had an expiration date and we are seeing that the benefits that the source brought were not ours. They cannot hide us any more.

Will the cold come to capitalism?

The essential thing is people.

We live in a context in which anti-feminist and racist hate speech at the global level is on the rise. Far-right narratives are inserted throughout the world by
social networks and political agendas. Racism and anti-feminism have become two great discursive axes that adapt to... [+]


Fog

Many times, after looking at the brumas from my house, it has occurred to me not to catch umbrellas, even though I know I will just soak up. Why will it be? Maybe you don't want to catch the umbrella? Maybe in the hope that I don't get wet? Nevertheless, the conclusion has always... [+]


To live in Basque, the Republic of Euskera

I remember when I was 16 years old, the Ertzaintza first identified me in a concentration in favor of the Basque Country before the Bergara courts. We believed that in Euskal Herria it was legitimate to cry for the Euskaldunization of the courts, but then there would also be a... [+]

When the thirst for profit chokes

The disaster caused by the cold drop in Valencia has left us dramatic images, both because of the immediate consequences it has had, and because the future awaiting us has brought us forward: that this type of extreme climate phenomena will be increasingly numerous and serious... [+]


We have argued against the Navarre Energy Plan that does not plan

The update of the Navarra Energy Plan goes unnoticed. The Government of Navarre made this public and, at the end of the period for the submission of claims, no government official has explained to us what their proposals are to the citizens.

The reading of the documentation... [+]

Rusophobia before and now (II)

Since the disappearance of the Soviet Union, rusophobia has been growing. The concept of security of the UN Security Council of 2002 is very clear and indicates that the security and stability of the planet must depend on the states that do not intend to challenge the United... [+]


Name and existence of Umandi

Andoni Urrestarazu Landazabal was born in the village of Araia on 16 July 1902 and died in Vitoria on 21 November 1993. It is now 31 years old and I think it is time to recognize his name and be, because the legacy he left is not well known. Umandi used the name of a mountain in... [+]


Euskera with memory

Autobiography writing is, they say, the most effective tool for personal development, the most liberating. Pulling things away from the past and remembering them, it seems that it helps unleash the knots of the present. Yes, it helps to understand the present and to draw a... [+]


Wager on the future

I have done a review from the announcement of the pandemic to the tragedy in Valencia and have concluded that the disastrous institutional management that lies and forupe as firewalls is constant of the ruling class.

We do not have a valid substitute ruler as long as this... [+]

Carriers also have to go to the service

November 19 is World Bathing Day. Even today, in the twenty-first century, many workers here in the Basque Country do not have the right to use the toilet in their working days. Many transport workers are an example of this.

Toilets are the key to public health and play a... [+]


Housing scam

The housing problem is a structural problem that comes from far away. What should be a human right is nothing more than a subjective right. I say that it is a fraud because, although all the institutions and all the political parties say nice words, they do not grasp the... [+]

Why concerted teaching?

The new Education Act adopted by the CAV against most public school officials aims to ensure that concerted education is free of charge through the financing of public authorities. The Spanish State has also announced a significant increase in public... [+]
