How Green are You?

The most things that I know about the environmentally and the recycle is for my mother. Honestly, in the school they never taught me about this topics. When I was there, they never taught me anything about the importance of the recycling. There wasn't even dumpsters which separating the garbage by the origin. Even Though, my mom is very conscious with the planet, and she separate the garbage and when it's accumulated we go to the supermarket and we deposit in the landfills by the material.

I don't have a car, but it's not important to me. I think I have all my life to move in a motor vehicle, especially when I'm older and probably I will not have wishes to use the public locomotion (because it's very poor quality in mi opinion). Today I use my bike when I must travel near of my house, but I live too far to the center of Santiago, so I can't use this transport always (actually, I'm not a sports person). I love walking when I can do it, so I use my legs as long as I have the opportunity.

I support eco-organization, but I haven't been in any group or something :( I thing my social action is in other activities and I prefer do environmentally practices lonely, in my house. I try to use less water and light, buy biodegradable products and throw the trash where it belongs.

I really think one way to help the environment is to start with yourself. If the people had any love for their places and for the city (especially in Santiago) all might be a little easier. According to me, the main cause of this big problem is that people are too selfish and insensitive to their own environment and they do not even care about future generations.
