Trying to be green

At this moment in our planet, people have more interest in worthless things, like how much you spend to buying a car or the last cellphone in the market, however is not common listen to your neighbor or a friend or even yourself saying that you are worried for the environment or what can we do to make a difference and do environmentally friendly practices.

In the last years is more usual to hear about this issues, but sincerely I think that in some cases people use this ideas more for set a trend and the idea of take care for the environment it’s left behind.

In my personal opinion, this is something to worry about, I think that there is many ways to contribute to contaminate less or just don't contaminate that we can learn, but sometimes takes time that we prefer spend in other things. Sometimes I think that I can do more – yes, I’m not like the most “green” person- like divide the garbage on plastic, paper, glass, etc., because this is a simple action that don’t take a long time, and really I do it every time that I can, but not as often as I would like to. Also, since I can remember I want to have a bike, because I’d feel that it’s a great way to contaminate less and make exercise at the same time, maybe in the near future I can do this a reality.

In 2006 with a friend we signed to support a campaign of Greenpeace, but that was the only time that I do something similar. Sometimes I get an e-mail from eco-organizations but in general I don´t have the time to participate.

With my kids I try to incorporated recycling habits and take care of the environment, and every Sunday we go to the supermarket to recycle bottles, and in little things like don’t throw out trash in the street or don't waste the water, I hope that this habits remain in their life.
