  1. I have done the test, and I confess that I don't know some answers. Whatever I think I'm a true ecologist. I do everythingh to respect the nature: to make recicling, to plant new trees, to save light and water, to walk or to take public transport etc. To protect the Earth we must do these little actions. If they are made in community, they can be decisive to avoid an impending global disaster.

  2. Looking at these questions I say whether to take also takes care of him few of the environment it would not hurt anybody, also with small gestures for instance to recycle the paper, to save energy avoiding,the destruction of the forests etc.. we can improve the conditions of the environment that are today still precarious preventing so global disasters.
