I have tried to be green. I think it is something I have lost a lot since I arrived santiago. Im not saying that the people of santiago have the problem, but the speed of the capital´s life sometimes makes us forget the things that we believe.
I think I want to recover some "green attitudes" in my life, like recycling, cycling, compost and trying to always think the best form of doing regular things.
some other habits we can adopt are:
*using our own fabric bags when we buy food, instead of plastic bags
*Carrying our garbage to recycling points, and cheking they go in the correct group; sometimes, details (like unclean garbage) make this a pointless action
*trying to walk or use public transport instead of driving a car
*using parks and green areas
*putting the lights and electronic devices off when they are not occupied
*Cleaning our Houses regulary
*using only the necesary water
This requires time and patience: our society is always trying to do things more confortable and fast, and this is the reason why our economy and life style system is not ready for a green way. But change is real, and it starts with you!
Our world need our change of mentality and a better way to do things: the prove of that is the huges movement and strange things that are happening all around the world.
I'm agree with you, I thinks the city is not the problem, humans are!
