The environment


Hello, today’s post is related to looking after the environment.
I think that a good place to learn about environmentally friendly practices it's the scouts movement.
I learn so much since I was a child about the care of nature thanks to my scout group. I learn things like recycling, to throw garbage in suitable places and not in the streets, and to recognize biodegradable things from the things that aren't biodegradable.
Nowadays I incorporate all those things into my habits. For example I live near to Bustamante Park, and I go there to throw papers, glasses and other things. Also, in the building that I live, people separate trash from paperboard, so that helps to.
Although I do these things, I've never joined in any eco-organizations. I have to accept that even I think that the care of nature is important, I have never made the time to do join in a eco-organization. Maybe I should do it, because I've always admire the commitment of people that belongs to any kind of that organizations.
On the other hand, we can do different things to looking after the environment. One of those things it’s to know which our carbon footprint are. There are many pages in the internet to know it. I did it once, but I don’t remember which was.
If you want to know how to reduce your carbon footprint, you can easily find many ways to do it in internet. But, for example, one way to do it is to buy second hand clothes.

 Finally, I believe that if more people do those things, someday the world will be a better place to live for us and for those who don't born yet.
