The Environmental Problem

In general, I think the environmental problem is not widespread by the inhabitants. It certainly is a serious problem that is in Chile and Santiago, as it is a very heavily polluted city.

In the news show environmental problems like consequences of dams, chemical and industrial waste, corporate irresponsibility, and balance laws against agro. It is not difficult to explain why there has been news but environmental indifference. Not in school, not in high schools or universities taught environmental protection practices. So, we must strengthen self-education practices in school and neighborhood organizations the communities that seek incorporate the people caring for the environment.

Personally I do not care I have many environmental practices and in general I have not much awareness of the consequences of some actions, such as throwing cigarettes anywhere or promoting indirect a negative impact on near areas. I try to go as much as possible by bike from my house to the university, but I think it actually does not help much, it does not allow be many buses stop in the city. I hope in the future to be more recurrent practice.

No doubt that Santiago has a long way to go. At its citizens and their authorities. We must take drastic measures because it is the poorest people affecting pollution. While in Pudahuel pollution is very high, in Las Condes not so well. Neither the health system is the same in both sectors for care in the winter.
