I learnt about environmentally friendly practices by myself when I was in the school.
However, I haven't incorporated these practices into my habits, because it’s difficult to learn for my family about this topic, for example, about recycling: Although I have wanted to recycle in my house, it has been complicated; I feel that my parents and my sisters haven't taken the importance of recycling. So, the only that I have recycled by myself is paper. I collect the paper of the university that I will not use and I take it to recycling box in the Campus Juan Gomez Millas, University of Chile.
On respect to transport, I use the public transport, because I live far of the University and I can't go using a bike, besides, I don't know how to ride a bicycle.
In the University there is an eco-organization, Secretaría de Medio Ambiente. But I don’t take part of it, because I don’t have free time to work as active member.
If I had more free time, first place I would like to establish recycling in my house, in my house, by teaching my family how to recycle and why is important. Then, I would join to the organization in the University. Finally, I would like to learn about the compost.
On other side, I try to reduce my carbon footprint; I avoid throwing littler in the sites that I visit. Also, I clean up littler that other people leave. I think that in our society, in general, is missing education regarding being friendly to the environment.
