My opinion...
The consensus of the scientific opinion on climate change is
that earth’s climate has warmed significantly sins the late 1800’s,
that human activities; primarily greenhouse emissions are the primary
cause, that continuing emissions will increase the likelihood and
severity of global effects and that people could manage future climate
change impact through intense efforts at reducing further warming.
In my opinion, environmentally-friendly
practices seem very difficult, but when you learn about them you
realize that are much easy practices that help the environment
immensely.
I
hope and believe that most people are learning about
environmentally-friendly practices throughout their families, TV
advertisements, schools, and friends in general. People, today, are
aware of the need to take care of our planet.
I
can say that I somehow green in many of my daily practices such as
separating my trash, using public transportation as much as I can,
reusing many containers and transforming them into useful utensils in my
kitchen, etc.
In
my case, I have not joined any eco-friendly organizations mainly
because I need to rearrange my schedule to make time to do it. However, I
am planning in the future to become a volunteer at Greenpeace. I
believe this organization is one of the most important one in the world.
They have been fighting for the environment for many years, for
example, the forest, the climate, the oceans, etc. Also, I would like to
help to develop more campaigns to protect our city, commune or just the
neighborhoods.
In
order to reduce carbon footprint, I have been using less spray products
in my house, more public transportation, as I said before, and try to
eat more raw food so I do not need to use my stove often.
In
Santiago, we need more campaigns to raise a higher awareness about the
necessity of having a cleaner city. We need a city where the pollution
level can be lowered, for instance, by having a better public transport
system. We need many actions to have a better environment in our city.
I also think that the people are more aware of the many ways to try to return the damage caused to the planet, but beyond that, the primordial fact is that the willpower of the people to make all the ideas come true, and take it to the praxis and be involved actors into the enviromental care.
