Hi everyone. On this occasion I write something about environment. The care of environment today is urgent. The human lifestyle, with many contaminants practices, has our planet in a critic situation. But this is not a new thing. I think than all the problem was started with a success called “The Second Industrial Revolution” between 1870 and 1920. The image of this success is very typical “picture”: industries to emanate smoke. The characteristic thing of this revolution is the chemical and electrical development, and on the other side the massive use of oil and steel. In a long time of development, nothing was worried of environment. Then the earth was accumulating many toxic wastes. Just until a few years ago the environmentally friendly practices was learn in the school. Today many countries are demanding environmentally friendly practices to the industries and enterprises. Maybe in the “First world” that practices are respect the environment. I am not sure, but I think the last big country witch not respect it, is China. Heir in the “3th world” we are beginning in the way of environment care. Now, in Chile, we talk about carbon footprint, but we use spray deodorant, even when we have over our heads the ozone layer hole; we have a massive use of cars; the people in cars don`t respect people in bikes; we have thermo electrical factories that consume oil or coal, and produces a lot of smoke. Personally, I try to have environmentally friendly practices. I use public transportation, I walk or use bike instead of a car, I don`t use spray deodorant, I recycling paper, plastic and glass, I don`t throw thrash on the ground, and I try to learn this practices to my family and friends. I hope, sorry, I’m sure the new generation will be very care with the environment. Is the only way to survive in the only place we have to live.
