In this post I would like to comment the article "Bill Gates: Solving Covid easy compared with climate" written by Justin Rowlatt (BBC). The article describes Bill Gates' views on climate change especially in the context of recent events. The article shows what solutions Bill Gates supports and confronts it with his behavior.

Climate change is extremely important in today's world and perhaps Mr. Gates is right in saying that it is the greatest challenge in human history. In general, I agree with the opinions presented in the article, in particular that accelerating technological changes is most important. At the same time, I appreciate a certain realism of Bill Gates in his actions for the climate, for example when he says that it is impossible to eliminate air traffic and that technological changes should be done so that it does not harm the climate. I think that a sensible fight against climate change, not hysterical radicalism, is what the world needs.

    And clean technology certainly is our most promising way out of this mess.

Last Saturday, during a walk, I was approached by a man who was apparently looking for a way. He asked me if I knew where the horse stud was located. My automatic reply was "unfortunately no." A few seconds later, however, I came to the conclusion that i know where it was located, turned back and showed him the direction for which he thanked me. This situation made me wonder if the fact that I answered the first time without thinking was a symbol. People today have become more individualistic and have less contact with people in the real world. Perhaps my answer was simply due to the fact that I have never been to this stud and I know where it is only by accident, but this situation, (apart from the satisfaction of helping), also gave me lesson for future to watch out for antisocial reflexes, which may occur more frequent after lockdowns.

Last Saturday, I played a game in which I spent many long hours as a small child. I was hoping to travel back in time to those times when life was much simpler and more beautiful. Unfortunately, despite the emotions, the game turned out to be much worse than I remembered it. I guess that is just how human memory works, it writes down things from youth as cooler than they really were. Perhaps this game was never very good and I just remember it because it accompanied me in the happy moments of my life. Although I turned off this game after a short time and probably won't come back to it for a long time, I am glad I turned it on. Nostalgia is a very nice feeling and I hope that in some time I will remember my present experiences similarly.

 In today's post I would like to describe the history of the election day in the USA. In 1845 Congress unified the election day for all states. Previously elections could take place within 34 days before the first Wednesday of December.  This change was made because of developing the telegraph in America, election results from one state could influence the votes of others.  It was decided that the elections should be held in November due to still relatively good weather and end of the harvest, which was crucial because then USA was still a strongly agricultural state.  Tuesday was chosen as voting day so voters could go to church on Sunday, arrive at the voting place (usually in a large city) on Monday, and vote ahead of Wednesday, which was a trading day for farmers. The change initially applied only to the presidential election later it was extended. Since then, elections in the states have been held every two years on the first Tuesday after November 1.
