HOW GREEN ARE YOU?

For so long, I've heard about how we could help our planet through recycling and others ways to keep it green and healthy for ourselves. But where we learn it? I think that we learn things like this with experience, and in a few times in school practices or in internet, too.

I've incorporated recycling in my habits for example: carrying bottles of glass to the containers that are in some corners of my city, or also classifying plastic from paper or cardboard. Some time ago I was collecting taps, but it was difficult because I don't drink much soda, so I left it :(

Too, in some cases, the clothes that I don't use anymore I give it to the personal that works in the building that I live, inside of throwing to the bin.

I thank God that my family don't have a car, so to go to other places we use our legs or the subway, if the place is far away from us.

I haven't joined or supported any eco-organizations, I don't know why, it might be because I haven't heard of any near of me, or maybe just for being lazy.

I would like to recycle more, because in that way I would help the planet, and at the same time, I can get some money.

To reduce the carbon footprint I try to use my laptop less time than before. I try to use it just if it's really necessary, but to be honest, there are some days that I forget this, and turn on the laptop to procrastinate all day.

Finally, I think that in Santiago we need more education about the garbage in the streets. Often I get angry when I walk because when I look to the ground all I see is garbage from other people and I don't understand why is too difficult for them to go to the bin. Is it too hard? I don't think so. And maybe starting for that we can make Santiago a greener city.
