How green you are?

Hi Everyone one! Today I´m going to talk about  the environment, especially, how green I am. Firstly, I have to say that I don´t consider myself  a green person, but I´m not indifferent to the environmental problems around the world.
I think that environment friendly practices are learned in the closest circles of the person, especially with their family or friends. In my case, for example, and as I said before, I don´t consider myself  a very green person, and I don´t have incorporated recycling habits in my life. I think that this has happened because this topic is not considered a very important one within my family, or  my closest friends. I think that I only have one or two friends committed with environmental problems.
Although I don´t consider myself  a green person, most of the time I use my legs instead of a car or bus, but only if it is not a big distance or if I´m on time to get to the place. I think that this is the only thing that I have done to reduce my carbon footprint, and those things make me realize that I need (and I would like) to incorporate some recycling habits like separating the trash in plastic bags according to its nature, for example, cardboard, glass, etc.

I have to say that I´m not part of any eco-organizations, and I think that the main reason of this is because I don´t have enough time  for any other organization, except those that I already belong to. Besides, it is not a topic that worries me a lot. Because of that, I think we need to create more awareness about this problem in our society, trough more publicity on mass media or more economic support to the eco-organizations, but not only from some business’s men but also from the government.
