Ninth Post

Maybe since the beginning of the 90’s the preoccupation for climate change and high levels of contamination in the world. These topics are very important because if we don’t have care in the future maybe our kids will be affected. For this reason we have to investigate and search for friendly practices to help in the care of the environment. 

To make this we have a lot of alternatives, like to participate in eco-organizations or simply searching information in internet, there are a lot of options and we only need the motivation to try to change a little bit the things. In my case I practice few friendly practice because in some cases have this kind of life means make some changes that in the beginning cost a lot of money. 

When I was kid, I practiced some time the recycling, I remember that I learned that in the school but with pass of the time I stopped to make it because I went to live to another house, and in for recycling practices my cousins helped me. A habit that I have been doing since four or five years ago it’s to prefer to walk instead the car or the buses to go to the school or the university. When I go to the country I use a lot the bike but here in Santiago I don’t have one. 

For a long time I was thinking in another options for help, and obviously I think in eco-organizations, I try to help in one near of my house that made a greenhouse and some activities of replant in the hills of Renca but this organization was dissolved in 2004. I would like to make so many things to reduce my carbon footprint and help the environment like save energy in my house, re-start the recycling, and change my food. 

I think that in our society we have the obligation to pay more attention in this topic, more politics and projects like more bicycle lanes would be in the future a better life for all of us.
