Questions and answers

What is your opinion about buying instead of adopting pets?

I think that buying pets, sometimes, is something superficial, is to say to improve your image with an expensive purebred pet. That is not to say that people who buy pets are necessarily bad owners, it is just my perception. Anyway, no matter if you have a pet purchased or adopted, the important thing is that you take care of them.

What is your opinion about  climate change?

I consider that climate change is a very big problem that we must face today. I understand that the authorities don’t want to cause alarm or social and economic imbalance, but simplify the problem is not the best solution, it is not a solution, at all. The climate change effects are undeniably an global urgency, so people and specially authorities have to deal with. 

What is your opinion about cloning?

When I think about cloning, the first thing that comes to mind is “human want to manipulate absolutely everything”. Even though I suppose I should not be surprised, I feel a little more disappointed. Today, everything is considered as completely replaceable, since a thing to a person. Also, I don’t understand why we would like to have more people in a overpopulated world.

What is your opinion about the legalisation of abortion?

I consider that the legislation of abortion is something difficult to discuss, because we are in Chile, a conservative country. I think that the problem is the notion of what “life” means, and what we will consider as “valuable life”. For me, is a hypocrisy that people defends the life of a no sentient creature but kill and eat others sentient creatures (animals). I am in favor of legal abortion.
