¿Sabemos resolver problemas? | Martín Pérez Mendóza | TEDxSanIsidro


[Music]

imagine this situation be at home

after a long day of work and

He decided to relax with a good shower

hot enter the bathroom and they are

with a large right moisture stain

this way makes them think that with the

time the steam of the fight is missing

when the painting

then naturally decide to solve

your problem with the hands of painting a

first instance it seems that the problem

is resolved but unfortunately the

wet spot soon returned to

Appear

what happened, we assumed that what

we saw on the roof was the whole problem

when in fact the real cause

of the problem is something much deeper

and impossible to see at first glance a

small loss of water in a pipe

our neighbor above but then

we made a mistake or just did not

We knew to see beyond the problem

the painting has served to treat a

symptom of the problem is the damage on the

surface

I can solve the problem

truly require a treatment

different tasting than its root causes

until we fix the loss of the

spout

the problem is going to continue this example

simple helps us to distinguish the

difference between what it is to treat

symptoms and solve the causes to a

problem but what happens when the

problems becomes more complex

how do we solve the problems of

transit forever with the solution to

unemployment or climate change is not

so easy not

this man that they see on the screen next to

Paul and a renowned economist

boost what is called the blue economy

blue economy presented a change in the

that we see our productive processes

and it’s closely related to the way

that we solve our problems so much

economic, social and environmental

to give them an example we all know in

current paper production

necessarily implies the

the one of trees a solution that we could

to call ecological is to compensate

those trees felled replanting

new trees

this is a natural forest and that’s how

you see a forest reforested you

they think we ‘re really solving

the problem or the solution to the problem

go through something much deeper than

reforestation this same question was asked

a group b together with its researchers

they set out to find a new

way to generate paper to be eliminated

the need to cut trees and as well as

create up a paper that basically

paper made from waste of the

Mining companies stone ground instead of

settle for repairing the damage caused

they set out to find a new

way to eliminate the need to cut down

trees and this also represents a

true solution to the problem since the

problem itself is not deforestation

but the need to cut trees for

paper produce something similar was what

we made you cry with bot just look for a

technological solution to a problem that

we are having the faculty together

with my thesis partner

we set out and give a solution to

problem of the large amount of waste

that were occurring daily

in the faculty and in particular we decided

concentrate on waste from

plastic pet drink bottles that

they were sold daily in the mud

then to attack root causes

of this problem and we give a great

industrial machine capable of processing

massively the bottles reducing their

volume to reduce the costs of

waste collection and transport

luckily that was not what we did

it would have taken a lot of time and

Furthermore, we would not have complied with the

objectives that we had set

like the paint on the damp spot

a large industrial machine shares the

The only thing that bottles do is treat a

symptom of the problem that is what I do

now in the immediate with these bottles

but then if the residue in sign is

the cause of the problem which we gave

account that the true cause of

problem is we the people who

we are producing that waste and that is not

we are throwing him in the place and the

way that corresponds

for that reason we did with bot is a

machine that seeks to generate awareness

regarding the correct way in which

we have made our waste its use

it requires following four simple steps

first the caps are introduced one

special way

then we have to empty the liquid

remnants of our bottles in a

funnel that is located in the part

superior and finally we enter the

bottle in the machine and we start the

cycle and compacted with a button

as you can see with compact voice the

bottles individually so

that each one of us has to

approaching the machine discard your

bottle and so we will be generating the

habit of not throwing bottles with

rest of the wet waste

it was also thought at first

to be installed in the dining room of the

faculty so that it had

visibility and we reach the highest

number of people possible

these design decisions helps with

different awareness campaigns

samples of how the community of the

faculty were our solution to the

causes of the problem

distinguish the difference between

symptoms and causes a problem then

nothing easy for certain situations

everyday but tends to become very

complex

as the problems go

making it more difficult

However, do the exercise

ask us why and continue

wondering why until we find

the true causes of problems

everyday

it’s a great start to train us

to recognize them

I propose something

the next time they meet with a

challenging problem

Take five minutes and ask yourself if

what they are doing to solve what

is covering your symptoms with paint or

if they are really doing something that

until its causes

we want positive habits changes

let’s analyze the problems in depth

to find its true causes

let’s be innovative with our

solutions since this is the only

way in which we will solve the stain

humid world

thank you very much
