How can my major make the world a better place?

As I mentioned earlier, I study geography.

My career has different areas of study, the main ones are physical geography and human geography, in the physical area, are studied the behavior of the lithosphere and the movements that occur within the earth. A specific area of this is the behavior of water bodies.

This is very interesting for me and I would like to specialize in hydrology or glaciology, in my opinion, it´s very important to study the behaviors of water, its human use, and how they can be affected by its indiscriminate use. Maybe I can't change the world, but I can work with communities that are affected by drought, to create maps of glaciers to see their decline or create projects for water protection.

ArcGIS Pro is a computer software that I use to make maps, this application uses the Geographic Information System (GIS),  , which collects, manages and analyzes data, the information it provides is very complete, since it integrates many types of data, according to its website: "Analyzes spatial location and arranges layers of information in visualizations, using maps and 3D scenes. With this unique capability, GIS reveals deeper insights into data, such as patterns, relationships, and situations, helping users make smarter decisions". Having so many components and tools, I use the website:  https://www.esri.cl/es-cl/inicio ,  in which we can obtain the necessary information to solve queries or the necessary indications to make a map in the ArcGIS software,  I recommend it to all those who start as geographers or if they need to make a map,  for my part I don't use it as often anymore, but in my first year I used it a lot  since it was easy to find the inf...

Healthcare system

Hello and welcome to my new blog! Today I will talk to you about the Chilean health system, which is divided into the public and private health systems, as already mentioned in other blogs, there is a clear difference between these systems, It has also been commented many times that our health system is one of the best in Latam( If we consider only the private health system 😕). During the constituent process, there was talk of joining these two systems, which would be very beneficial for all people, before the new constitution was rejected, I already knew that it was very unlikely, since it is in "private hands" (and it´s very lucrative for them) and also helps to take administrative and economic burden off the state. in conclusion and trying not to be pessimistic I think the state should focus on the public system to improve the  structure  and quality for citizens who cannot afford a good health system. https://www.france24.com/es/minuto-a-minuto/20220831-comprar-...
