Being green

Hi, today I’m going to write about being green.

I think our country; Chile is very slow in green politics, it can be because people don’t take this theme like a serious theme, and is a political/economic thing behind the reason, because projects like “Dominga” or “HidroAysen” that are terrible for the environment, are promoting by congressman who see an economic benefice.  

I think we all can do environmental friendly actions, started with the little things, like disconnect your phone charger when you are not used it or separated the garbage from the plastics, the paper and the organics residues. Other ways to be friendly with the environmental is taking a short shower, like only five minutes. I have to say I always tried to spend less time, but I always take like fifteen or twenty minutes in the shower.

I think the most common items that people recycle, is the used paper, in my neighborhood we have a special trash can for the used paper, so we only have to separate the paper and don’t put in with the regular trash; it’s a very simple action. Another common items, but this is more common in the farm zone, it’s the organic trash, like vegetables or fruits leftovers, and the people used for the plants as a natural fertilizer.   

It’s very important that average people star to do change is his life, doing more friendly actions, because when you mix  lot of little actions, its became a big actions that can really help the planet.
