BP #8 - Going Green Again

1. What are three things you can change in your life or your habits to "go greener"?
    
Pay bill online, Shop online but avoid overnight shipping, Buy Non-wrapped product.

2. Do you think that people in your home country think about going green as much as Americans do?

I don't think that America, specially in NY, really care about going green because, people throw garbages without feeling sorry. for example, in the subway, garbages are everywhere.  People don't care about it and people throw away cigarrets on the street after smoking without conscience.

In my country, Korea, Going Green is also a big issue. Every apartments and buildings must have recycling bins and when people separate garbge collection, they have to use only recycle plastic bags. If you don't use it when you throw garbages in recycling buns, you are going to get penalty. Also, in Seoul, the capital city in Korea, All buses in public are natural gas vehicles and throwing cigarrets on the street is guilty.

3. What is one thing that really suprised you about going green or something that you didn't realize was so bad for the environment?

I have never though about that it could help online shopping but avoid overnight shipping could help going green.
