How green I’m..

I think today all the green matter has become a citizen concern. Anyway, I think that most of the time it remains just in the concern and it doesn’t become a real action. My family and I have tried to incorporate recycling habits but when you live in a building it’s a little bit more complicated. Four years ago I used to live in a house in Ñuñoa, who has a good recycling program financed by the City Hall; when we were living at there, we usually tried to recycle plastic bottles and cartons. When we moved out to the apartment where I live now, everything turned more complicated. It’s really difficult try to recycle when you live in a community that doesn’t care about it. I don’t know particularly if the City Hall of Providencia has a recycling program, but the fact is that to apply a recycling program in my building everyone has to agree with that. And we are not enough.
I think there are lots of things that can be recycled easily, but most people don’t know what kind of things are or how to get the information to do it. But the information about this subjects is everywhere. If you visit the web site http://www.tuverde.com you can get some tips to try to get a greener life and to be respectful with the environment.
Another thing is cycling, it’s cheaper, good for health and good with the environment. But this also has a problem, there are not enough bike paths in the city.
So I think that if we want to have a greener life it doesn’t mean just to recycle, I think it should be accompanied by lots of changes. The City Halls should be worried about giving more chances to the citizens to incorporate this kind of habits.
