Thinking green

Taking care of environment is getting popular since last 20 years. Is better this way, you know, we are talking about the place we live, and we want to live fine, nor we?
 So, let's keep going with the questions:

- Where do people learn about enviromentally friendly practices?

I think the main place where people learn about environmentally friendly practices is at school. Is important to learn this practices when we are children, as the way we should live on future, to preserve the planet. But that's not all, of course. The most important to place not only this but all kind of habits is at home , we must be responsible about that. 

- Have you incorporated recycling into your habits? Describe

I actually haven't completely acquired recycling habits, but I do some things. some of them I learnt it on the video about recycling posted ago (top ten tips for recycling http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjbSEIOUp4w) like re-use plastic carry bags avoiding discard them, or squash my bottles before throw them up.


- Do you use a bike or your legs instead of a car?

Sure. I prefer to walk whenever I can. I must travel to classes and is so far that I have to take the bus. I can't make it otherwise. I don't have a bike yet because my parents think it's a some dangerous. It's a bit true, but I would use it for short travels so I don't see much trouble on that, so I'll get one soon.

- Have you joined or supported any eco-organisations? Why/Why not?

I haven't joined anything. I just make the effort and haven't gather information about that. I'll search on Internet for  it I promise.

- What else have you done /would you like to do?


I would like to make compost at home, if I would have the place for it. I'm working on reduce my electric consume too.

- What have you done to reduce your carbon footprint?


Let's see. I travel on bus and avoid car rides. On vacations I'll grow a tree. There are two things. I'll make a plan to do more.

- What's missing in our society/Santiago regarding this issue?


I think it's very important to learn to separate trash, on plastic, organic, paper, etc. At least in Santiago  I don't see that happening. Other important thing is improve public transport in regions, because is not much clean. They actually use old buses that were discarded from Santiago.
