Climate Change Denial

Seashores avatarPosted on 30/03/2014 by Ken Grandchamp13/05/2017

Global-Warming-Shattered-SkyGlobal warming is caused by man and most scientists confirm this as a fact.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming

There is a whole group of people, individuals and groups, who do their utmost to deny this!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming_denial

Why deny it ? Who gains from the denial ?

Wouldn’t the creation of new technologies, new startups and the hiring of young people, seem to be a good thing for society and our dear earth?

Welcome to my Blog!

Seashores Posted on 20/03/2014 by Ken Grandchamp12/05/2017

ken-grandchampHello everybody!

I would like to welcome you to my new blog!

Why Seashores ? Good question ! We Swiss tend to like doing things that have little to do with Switzerland like winning the ocean sailing race with Alinghi, flying around the world in a balloon, going round our earth with a solar boat, or solar plane. I was raised in Rio, Brasil and love the ocean and seashores… so there!

I am going to talk about anything that interests me and concurrently, learn all I can about WordPress! I have to brush up my English and have enough imagination to think about blog subjects and maintaining the conversation.

The general tone of this blog should be, as the title suggests, that of relaxed, benign, tolerance. One should avoid all personal attacks and use of bad language will not be accepted. We will aim for the facts and only criticize people if it is important for the clarity of the idea expressed.

Please answer the posts in English, French, Portuguese or Spanish, as these are the languages I understand.

We shall see what gives! 🙂

Swiss Identity – Am I a “real” Swiss ?

Seashores avatarPosted on 12/11/2013 by Ken Grandchamp12/05/2017

guillaume-tellWhat does it mean to be Swiss ?
Are some Swiss “more genuinely Swiss” than others ?

I’ve been a bit peeved from the beginning with the feeling that the Swiss born in a foreign land ( I started my life in Rio, Brasil), and who returned to live in Switzerland after spending a large portion of their childhood in a foreign country, were somehow second-hand citizens and not “real Swiss” !

I have a feeling the countries with ex-colonies take far better care, and have much more consideration for their “foreign” countrymen.

Is this true ?
What could be our role in this globalized world and in and for Switzerland ? (Les expatriés, ces visages de la mondialisation )

Here are some documents about a proposed law for the Swiss living in foreign countries – “Pour une loi sur les Suisses de l’étranger“.

Should there be a special law for the Swiss living abroad (5th Swiss – 5ième Suisse) ?
