7th Post: about pollution, environment and stuff like that

I think some schools have the environment care like one of the issues in early grades, but I can’t remember if my school had it, I have a dreadful memory.

I haven’t incorporated recycling into my habits directly, I mean, I don’t take my garbage into special bags or segment it for types, but I am very careful about where I let it, for example, I always keep my wastes with me until I found a dump.

I love walking. When I lived in Concón, which it’s quite littler than Santiago, I used to walk everywhere, but Santiago it’s gigantic and all of my friends live far from me. If I had my bike here with me I’ll use it always, even for coming here, but it is in Concón, so I have to take the bus (not the subway, I hate the subway). But definitely I don’t use car, but not for choice, it’s because I haven’t one.

I have never joined or officially supported any Eco-organization because I don’t use to get engaged to anything, but I support them in a symbolic way haha.

I would like to be vegetarian (for many reasons that I don’t want to explain here because I’m not in the mood), but I just can’t stop eating meat. I love it and there is no point of return.

To be honest, I do nothing to reduce my carbon footprint; in fact, I use deodorant in aerosol and much improper stuff like that, but I think that my entire life incidence in the environment can’t compare itself with the one minute incidence of big factories, so the focus should be at them.


Finally, I think that more than Santiago as a city we need policies and culture for Chile as a country, and even beyond in South America and the entire world. Especially the ones who pollute the most.
