Me parece bien que un edificio que contaminaba tanto al año, cambie a la energía limpia pues yo creo que si los grandes edificios se empiezan a concienciar de esto, dentro de poco las demás empresas se unirán a este movimiento.

Es increíble lo que hace la ciencia en este tipo de casos,es fascinante lo que se puede saber de alguien solo por como son sus huesos y en que zona se encontrase en la hora de su muerte. De esta chica se ha podido adivinar que era zurda, que era pelirroja, murió en el 764 y el 515 a.C... espero que se siga avanzando en este campo, y a lo mejor algún día se puede adivinar se podrá saber muchas mas cosas sobre la vida del muerto.

COMENTARIO:
Me parece bien que investiguen e inventen vacunas contra enfermedades, pero lo que me parece mal es que se podrían haber salvados muchas vidas con vacunas que ya saben fabricar pero que no lo hacen porque es un buen negocio que tengan que pagar medicamentos que retrasan o paran el efecto de las enfermedades pero temporalmente y hay que comprarlos diariamente o semanalmente(como pasa con sida VIH)
