Environment

In my school I learned a lot about the "green issues" and the enviromentally friendly practices. However, in that place I never did any of these practices. For example, in my school we didn't have any trash can for recycling. So, all the trash was in any trash can. Nevertheless, I learned a lot of enviromentally friendly practices that I can do in my house. One of this practices is be nice with the water's consumption: now, in my home, I reduced the time of my showers (seriously, my showers are really shorts now), I don't use water while I wash the dishes and I don't use much water when I brush my teeths and when I shave. But I don't recycle much in my daily life.

However, I do others practices that help to the environment. For example, I use a lot my bicycle to travel to many places, like the university, the bank or even when I have to go to Providencia. Besides, I like walk a lot, so, when I have enough time, I like to walk instead take a bus or the subway. Obviously, when is a very long travel, I don't have another choice than take public transport. Anyway, any of this kind of vehicle is better than use a own car. 

Actually, I'm not in any eco-organisation, because I'm not interested in one of them. However, I respect all the things that they do to save the environment.

I think that in Santiago are missing many things about this issue. We don't have much recycle's points or we don't care about the trash, the CO2 or even the water (I'm speaking in general). Anyway, I think that the most important thing that is missing in our society is social conscience about the environment problem, because if the entire society help in this issue, the planet would breathe a little more.
