news I just read a very curious and could not stop counting on the blog.
You know that interest me a lot of popular and participatory initiatives that through organized movements get smaller goals and above all manage to change their surroundings.
anyone had heard of Westbury-sub-Mendit ? I confess that life is more, until I looked it had been unable to locate it on the globe. Well, I save a googling, is a small town in England, which until recently had a public library, but that good day his council decided to close it because he considered unnecessary. So far so normal.
What do you think made their inhabitants to protest?
Anywhere in Spain, I guess I would have protested, some people have put a complaint in writing, had left a couple of weeks the news in local newspapers, ... but nothing else. I think that eventually, everything would have calmed and we had endured without a library without books. Of course, while we have football 7 days a week, all great!
foot, had a brilliant idea. Take a look at the pictures.
Re-used phone booths to exchange books, DVDs, music, ... so now the town has a public library, open 24 hours, 365 days a year. Moreover, there was an effect "contagion" and there are more than 770 British municipalities have requested that BT (the largest British phone company) to install cabinets for other uses.
Can we learn something from this such initiatives?
I have it clear ... if anything we do not like or consider it unfair, is more useful to propose solutions and alternatives to limit myself to complain.
