I think
that people learn about this when someone else told them about it or just by doing it.
In my
family we have some practices about recycling like the organic trash
–overall fruits and vegetables- that we produce. We put it on a special
place in our garden so we fertilize the ground. Also we collect beverage cans
from the street and we sell it to a guy who recycles them. I think that something
important that my mom did was to fix the house and made a lot of windows, so we
use the electrical light just at night because the house is full of sun
light since the sunrise until dusk. And on my own I always try to recycle and to reuse the
cardboard or the paper that I use for the university.
When I have
time I walk instead of using a car or the bus specially when it is a short route. The
last year I used a lot my bicycle to go to the university, but I lost my physical resistance.
No, I
didn’t join an ecofriendly organization because I’m lazy, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t try to
support the environment.
Something
that I do when I’m in the street and I have garbage with me is to keep it with me
until I find a garbage can or until I'm back home, or to reuse the plastic bottles that I have.
About the
carbon footprint, I didn’t know well about it but reading now I avoid misusing the
consumption of electrical energy.
I think
that that the society –most of it- don’t understand the big picture of it, that
everybody is affected by pollution and we must concern about it.
i think that maybe is the modern society and the city, we want everything now, quickly, we are like slaves of time, we never have time for anything, so that makes that we can't stop and think about our bodys, about what we are eating, about what we are doing, we never have time for us and for take care about the environment, is so sad.
ReplyDeleteProbably laziness it's the root problem of all, I want to be more green to, but because of the that it takes to be green I can't do it, at least for now. I'm aware that I could make a bigger effort... but I don't want to xD
ReplyDelete"because of the TIME that it takes..."
DeleteMay be coud be more easy to recycle if wuld have more publicity about this .
ReplyDeleteRecycling is very important I want to congratulate you for your proactivity towards recycling and I hope that in the near future you will be able to ride your bike again
ReplyDeleteI hate when I'm in the street and somebody throw up something indiscriminately in the street, and I always try to say something to his or her althought most of the times they look annoying or freak out.
ReplyDeletebut truth it's i don't do too many, and it must be because I'm a little bit lazy in this terms
