SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT

THIRD VISIT







The friend we invited to joined us brougth two friends more, it was very helpful for us, they helped a lot even though was tired but they were with us helping.




we finally saw a diference in this visit, it was getting better, the place was clean, and in some point we never imagine that we did a lot of work and reach what we wanted. to make this place better to help the enviroment.






Our important goal was to develope the need of learning, from us to people that are willing to change thing and make them better.

we made some friends to be interested about we were doing, and so it was, they helped as we wanted.
the funny part is that everyday that we went there was a little kid and we told him if he wanted to join us, and so he did.... he had a good time
we realized that we can make changes in our way of living, we can help people and save them from contamination. we learned a lot, of how we can use our time to do productive things and take advantage of the free time we have and make it useful.

SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT

SECOND VISIT




this day we succed joining one friend of us, at the beginning we talk about our goal, of why are we doing this but they weren't convinced about it but when the first day we went alone we could talk about our experience and finally we could show that it wasn't that bad so she decided to join us.


When we came back the second day we check around and we saw it was a diferent, there were less garbage than the frist time but anyways it was some. we picked 3 bags this day .
we picked three bags each. the friend we conviced to come, told us that what we are doing was very helpful.

SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT



THE ESTERO SALADO

Gabriela and i started the project on july 11th; three saturdays, 4 hours each.

i choose the Estero Salado, because it is contaminated, and that really concer us, so we decided to work in that place. we thought that doing this we will help the enviroment and at the same time helping people to get affected of this huge contamination.

i searched many things about the estero but the first thing thay called my attention is that the estrero is one of the richest and varied ecosystem fo the southeast pacific.







i knew it would be hard to do this work because it would be tire but with my friend we realized that this will help the enviroment and all the species that live in.





FIRST VISIT
In the first visit gabriela and i went to
estero salado, just the two of us.
we made 5 bags each, it was really tired and it was
amazing how much garbage were in there.

i've never did this thing before and for me was too much! but at the same time was funny how we did this.

in this first day we took off a lot of garbage
we did a lot we started since 12 to 4:30.



we used bags for our hands to take the garbage,
some parts of the estero we couldnt
took grabage that were near to the water, that was dificult, we didnt have all the materials so we can do it better.

we advanced a lot the first day.
