There is always a pleasure to be invited to visit one of the most striking buildings of the Park of Nations, much less to spend an afternoon with bloggers from various fields to meet the Building Endesa and understand first hand why you recognized with the Triple A in energy efficiency, the first building in Spain with this certification.

The first thing I would say is that I'm still amazed at the difference outside and inside the building, the eye is notable for its great design that belongs to the architect Rafael de La-Hoz but when you enter the interior looks like something quite different, the amount of natural light that passes makes it amazing.

Once we begin to see the facilities we got to know the details that had enabled the building Endesa was recognized not only with the Triple A, also certified in Environmental and Indoor Environmental Quality.

Anecdotally and give you an idea of the size of the plant, a basketball game held on the premises of Endesa! (Brand Image).

In the atrium of the building is completely natural ventilation through ducts installed in the ground and, initially, was to be throughout the building, but the reality is that this has not been possible because the workers need a personal air conditioning in their offices to work.

At first, thinking that ventilation is natural one can think that can be cold or heat, but to walk through the facilities test how the temperature was perfect without any intervention. In addition, 52% reduction in emissions that have achieved is remarkable.

But not only environmental management is centered on the vent, but also in the illumination as I have said before is mostly natural, and the use of resources.

Something that are used in the building Endesa is to recycle. We were able to find different bins in the tour of the facility divided inside for separating waste from the start and met the recycling facilities. Or, one of the most striking things is collecting rainwater which is then used or even have a photovoltaic plant.

You have probably heard many times the word # actitudazul that has become a symbol of challenges made ​​in both the social and the environment but the reality is that you still have much more to discover.

I give you today is only a beginning, a small snack which I hope will inspire you to know and demand more because you can. Sustainable projects make a difference in Endesa, their commitments are carried out or getting projects like Ecoelce Triple A mark a milestone in its history, because the challenges can be achieved with a large # actitudazul.

Training has always been highly valued but now increasingly require more specialized training in addition to proficiency in at least one other language other than their mother tongue. Space Science Today we will discuss these aspects as basic in today to find work.

It is currently having a major change in the students, instead of trying to find work are extending their study time to specialize in the sector and / or profession or find it more attractive or feel that you have more job opportunities.

The other change is in the unemployed, given the difficulty of finding a job many return to studies in order to specialize, recycled or change of career guidance for a more competitive resume and get the job they need.

The reality is we have a wide range of courses, masters and training to expand our studies by the industry in which we have previously studied. For example, for those who are interested in decorating or have no facilities to design course interior design that supports them that ability may be innate or developed.

For those who enjoy between social networks and Internet technology can always find courses related to programming, cisco ccnp , web design, internet application development or even for those who are true fans of video games programming courses there, development and animation of this industry!

Because the most important is that our innate abilities or our tastes can find work that encourages us to develop more passion, ease and enthusiasm. You can always do a course that guarantees you have the necessary skills, because sometimes all you need.

Space Science Today we want to echo a series of research related to obesity and soda consumption, the results are really paradoxical about what is expected and hence the astonishment of many consumers. If you had to make a hypothesis Do you think that soft drink consumption increases the risk of obesity?

Anyone who has ever dieted knows that sugary drinks are the first thing to stop drinking to get lose weight or improve the figure, however, a study by the University of Sydney shows that this measure is not much.

To start we focus in this study that the authors labeled as "The Australian paradox" and data are collected from 1988 to 2003.

This period coincides with a major concern for health, which led to the Australian population to reduce their sugar intake by 23% and sales of sugary beverages decreased by 16%. The results are paradoxical is that in spite of taking these measures of obesity among the population was three times higher.

The question hangs in the air is whether we can then deduce that sugary drinks do not cause obesity.

We can continue citing related studies, for example, in the United Kingdom and the United States did the same study with similar results. And if we look somewhat earlier, found the study of Obesity Review in which he attempted to measure the relationship between consumption of sweetened beverages and body weight were unable to demonstrate that if left to consume this type of drink would be achieved to reduce weight.

Derived from these data, the researchers warn that certain anti-obesity measures such as encouraging stop consuming soft drinks, would not be the most successful since there is no great effect.

What these data suggest is that more research is needed about the cause of obesity and only science can give part of it.
