Do you consider yourself to be an environmentalist?
Asked at West Junior High School on November 6, 2007
“Yeah, I try to pay attention to everything that is going on in the news about the environment. I think we could be doing a lot better.”
“Yes. In Boy Scouts we learn a lot about conservation and keeping everything clean. When we went backpacking in New Mexico this summer, we had to carry all of our trash out with us.”
“Sort of. Sometimes I help with the recycling at my mom’s work, and we recycle at home.”
“I can be at times. If I see some trash lying around, I’ll pick it up. We recycle some things at our house and try to buy products that are better for the environment when we have a choice.”
“Yes. Anyone who is trying to make their environment better could be considered an environmentalist, and I try to do what I can.”
“Sort of. I try to recycle and help out the environment. But I’m only 13, so I can’t do as much as I would like to.”
“Yes. I recycle pretty much everything that I can.”
“Yeah. I could definitely do more, though. My family recycles, and I always try to be conscious of the environment.”
