Environment

Hi classmates! This week I will tell you about looking after the environment and about what shade of green I’m. Firstly, I think this is a recurrent theme at present, and people must learn environmentally friendly practices, include me. I think some people learn about it from their families like a life lesson, other people learn it in their schools and other people learn about it from the media.

Personally, I don’t have incorporated recycling into my habits, and I don’t use a bike or my legs instead of a car, because I am not a green person; well, I think we must become aware of looking after the environment, and I try to not pollute the environment every day, but I must admit that I don’t have incorporated many green practices in my life, for example, I always use the public transportation, probably because my family don’t taught me about green practices in my childhood, nor my teachers in the school.

I don’t have joined or supported any eco-organization, because the same reason, I don’t have become aware about this theme. But I would like to do it, for learn about environment and for amend with the nature. Besides, I would like to learn to reduce my carbon footprint, because I don’t know how it is.

Maybe, my own behavior is a reflection of my own society, specifically of Santiago, where the pollution is a quotidian problem, for the excessive traffic, the public transport, the factories, and the itself culture, because the awareness is missing in this city.
