Post 7: Who's to blame?

I’m not a very environmentally friendly person in my daily practices. I don’t know a lot about it, but this is also something I personally don’t believe. Don’t get me wrong. I do think that worrying about environment is important and I really appreciate what many people do about it.

But being ecologist is expensive, for example, to throw away you garbage, you need to buy these big black bags and you are not supposed to use a supermarket bag. But, what you are supposed to do with so many bags every time they give you when you buy in the supermarket? Yes, you can buy an eco-bag, but how you are going to throw your garbage? These black bags are expensive! The poverty in Chile is very high and people who live with the minimum can’t afford those expenses.

On the other hand, people can separate their garbage in organic and non-organic garbage, but there is only one garbage truck. That makes no sense!

I think that companies and industries need to worry about the environment because they cause most of the problems to it. They contaminate and people should ask them to do something about it. For example, people complain about smokers because they contaminate, but industries contaminate like one million cigarettes and nobody says anything about it. I really like organizations who do strikes against who really contaminate about environment.
