How green I am

I think that people learn about environmental friendly practices in their house, in the school and by the means of communication –like many things that people learn. Other way to know about it is by talking to the friends, like in my case; my university classmates teaches me how to make an Ecobrick, by example. I learn the importance of being ecofriendly in the school too, because since I was a child my professors talked to me about the importance of don´t throw garbage on the floor and the importance of the small actions. Years later I learn in the subjects ‘Technologist Education’ and ‘English’ about recycling.

Today I’m making an Ecobrick with wrappers, and I use the public transport or ride my bike to go to the University or other places. In spite of it, in many occasions my dad takes me to the places by car. I know that attitude isn’t ecofriendly, but I’m usually late and he’s so kind to me. By other side, I think that I have to recycle more and take less time at the shower. Also, I try to buy things with a minor carbon print that other similar products, and I want to do this more.   

Finally, I think that Santiago is a city in which the ecofriendly education is poor. I don’t know how the Education Ministry plans are actually, but I really hope it to teach about the importance of don’t littering, recycle and produce a small carbon print. I think that it’ll have to be included in the national TV too.
