Impressions of Germany

Today's entry is the first of a series of impressions that the Foothill GAPP students have shared with me.

Caroline:
"Germany seems to me more concerned with energy usage & their effect on the environment. People tend to have smaller cars, and therefore, less fuel is used. Also Germans are very aware of electricity consumption, and they ofter turn lights off or dim them whenever possible; some escalators even stop when no one is on them. In addition, Germans better conserve water, taking shorter showers and turning off the faucet while brushing their teeth (or so I have observed).
