Many students using our footprint calculator said that they could not pledge to reduce their home footprints because they were not making the decisions for the household. Here is your chance to design your own sustainable virtual household!
If you had your own home, what would you do to make it more energy efficient? Where would you get your electricity from? Where would your house be? Would you live near to your school or work or local transit options? Where would you get your food from?

If I were the head of my household I would lower my carbon footprint by opting for LED light bulbs because they are more energy efficient than incandescent. I would also compost organic food waste to reduce the amount of waste going to the landfill and to return nutrients to the soil around my home so that I could potentially grow my own fruits and vegetables. I would also opt for energy efficient appliances to avoid burning fossil fuels.
GET A JOB TO BUY A HOUSE FATTY
Most days, I leave my fan running in my room. This is a habit I got used to because my room is super small, so it is always hot. I recently discovered how much energy I am wasting and that I need to make some changes to my energy-wasting habits. How much have my few years of leaving my fan running affected my personal carbon footprint and the area around me?
How much do my long showers affect the environment and my footprint?
It's hard for me to gauge what aspects I am responsible for. Sure, there's the lights in my personal spaces, the plumbing I use, the things I buy, but that hardly scrapes the surface of my family's overall carbon footprint. Is there anything else I can be more involved in?
How can children encourage their parents to change their way of living? Parents hold a lot of authority and it could be hard to break them out of their habits.
I learned that most of my carbon emissions come from home energy and transportation. My footprint is 3,055 kg of CO₂ per year, which is lower than the average for California, but I still want to lower it. I think the easiest way to start is by using less electricity and turning off lights and electronics when not needed. Families can also switch to LED bulbs, use energy-efficient appliances, and adjust the thermostat to save energy. If more people made small changes at home, it could really help reduce total CO₂ levels.
(Source: ISCFC Calculator, 2024; EPA “Reducing Home Energy Use,” 2024)
Another thing we can do to lower carbon emissions at home is to turn off the water while we are brushing our teeth and only using it when needed. We could also just not use any heating or air conditioning, and as a substitute for heating we can use blankets.
There are many ways you can lower your carbon footprint. Like using public transit, walking, or biking instead of driving. You can also lower your beef consumption. Eliminating beef as much as possible, will significantly lower your carbon footprint. Cows produce methane, which is produced when they eat. One methane molecule is equivalent to about 23 CO2 molecules! Even replacing beef for chicken or fish will lower your carbon emissions. You can also lower your shower times.
My family's Carbon footprint is 16,841kg. Some people have near the average carbon footprint. Others have a very high Carbon footprint because maybe they have a big family or they have a small family and they have bad habits in their usage. But others sometimes have low carbon footprints because they pay attention if they are starting to have a bad habit and stop it.
My carbon footprint was 87,085 kgs which is a lot compared to the average of 9,727 kgs in California and is over 7 times the average carbon footprint. I think I might have calculated something wrong but I would still like to lower my carbon footprint by doing things like recycling stuff and using some of it for another purpose, turning off my bass and guitar amps when I'm not playing, walking more to places near me, or turning off the lights when im not in the room.
My Family's carbon foot print is 7,711 lbs, so this topic made me think about how much we contribute I agree that small habits like using less electricity (Ex: turning off our lights when we leave the house or a room) and recycling (Ex: I use a lot of cardboard to make animals mostly sharks to hang up on my wall) and can really lower our footprint over time .It helped me understand that even simple changes big or small at home can make a big difference.

My family's carbon footprint is around 5,000kg, this may seem low because its less than the average california residents, but in my eyes this is quite high. The reason our footprint is this high is because of our bad habits like leaving the water running for too long, leaving electronics on when we're not using them, leaving lights on when leaving the room, not recycling everything we can, etc. You and I can lower our footprint just by making small changes to your routine; being mindful about water usage, turning off electronics and lights, and recycling as much as possible.
My Family carbon is 16,841kg and my family is very strict on doing keeping stuff on or running and wasting money. It is bad habits to do all of that. The average carbon footprint is around 9,000kg. I wouldn’t necessarily disagree how your carbon footprint is high considering that others can have double or triple than 5,000kg. But i do agree on how we can change our carbon footprint by having better use on our water usage or electricity usage too.
My family's carbon footprint is very low because we like to be cost efficient and reuse. We also like to take advantage of our resources when granted. Another thing that keeps our carbon footprint low is we home grow our vegetables and fruits, which saves us money in the long run.
My personal carbon footprint is 6,888 per year. This one carbon footprint is extremely low compared to the global total carbon footprint. If the global carbon footprint was this, our greenhouse gas emissions would be around 0 and healing our planet would be 100% possible within the next 200 years. However my carbon footprint is 1.4 times larger than the average, if everyone had this our greenhouse gas situation would be a lot more severe than it already is. And to top it off, eliminating the greenhouse gases in our atmosphere would be impossible, and our situation would worsen, causing weather and temperature disasters, harming our day to day lifestyles.
Simply by replacing all light bulbs with LED lights you can significantly reduce your carbon emissions. LED light bulbs use 85 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs.
this is a simple and smart way of reducing carbon emission. not only do you save energy, you also save money. if you replace 30 light bulbs with LED lights you can save about 4000 pounds of C02 per year.
using LED lights is a very simple and efficient way of reducing carbon emissions. LED lights use about 85% less than light bulb. Not only do you save the environment, you also save money. if you replace 30 light bulbs with LED lights, you can reduce your C02 by about 4000 pounds per year.

My family's Carbon Footprint is 3,765 kgs, its less than the state and nation. My food category contains most of my carbon footprint with my home being second place. I think I need to work a bit better on my transportation even though it was low, I think it's because I didn't fully understand what it was asking or how to do it, but I think I'm at a pretty neutral stance about my carbon footprint.
my footprint was in the 13,000 because of this big vacation we took that took 4, long plane rides, we don't often go on planes, usually we go on road trips using a gas or hybrid car but now we use an electric car and we still don't travel as much so we definitely have a decent carbon footprint somewhere under 9,000 without flights. I definitely need to use my fans less since I use them even when I'm not in the room, and use my lights less.
My family has a lower family footprint than the average, and to get your carbon footprints down, I suggest you do at least one of the following. For one, paying close, or closer, attention to whether the packaging being used is recyclable or not, and following accordingly. My family does this all of the time, and by the time our recycling truck comes by, both bins are usually full. The second thing our family does is lower our screen times. We usually are only allowed to play for 1 or 1 and a half hours per day on our devices. I am assuming that this is a big impact on our CO² levels, and even just powering them all the way off is a massive impact. A third thing we do is almost always turning off the lights when we are either not in the house or just in a different room. Even something as small as this is a good help to your CO² levels in the long run.
Doing these easy and simple tasks can greatly contribute to your CO² outputs, and saving energy that isn't necessary to use.
Transportation made up 783 kg of my footprint. That’s a lot for just local trips! Cars that burn gasoline produce carbon dioxide and other gases that trap heat in the atmosphere. Using public buses, carpooling, or biking instead of driving everywhere can help a lot. Electric or hybrid cars also release less CO₂ over time. If communities built safer sidewalks and bike paths, more people could travel without using gas at all. ![]()
When I finished the carbon footprint questionnaire, I thought transportation would be the biggest contributor to carbon emissions. But I didn't realize food also contributed to pollution; in fact, it had the highest carbon footprint score on my questionnaire. Now that I know, I'll tell my family to try to eat healthier and eat out less, as well as not using the car so much.
While I am under average in almost everything I am wildly over in the travel section and should probably cut down on that
Me too, i think that it might be from when i went on trips for fun over summer break. I could cut back on these to reduce my footprint.
I was also wayyyy over the transportation section and that's the only section I really need to improve more on
Me too, i flew way too much this year which really contributes to travel.
I can reduce my family footprint carpooling in electric cars to save gas, I can also compost and recycle whenever I can. Doing these things can help reduce my carbon emissions and impact on the environment, I can tell my family to do these things to so we can reduce carbon emissions as a whole.
One way to reduce carbon emissions at home is by using energy-efficient appliances and LED light bulbs. My family got a new fridge that uses less power, and our electric bill went down. I also noticed that the fridge runs more quietly and doesn’t get as hot, which shows it’s using energy more efficiently. Making small changes like this can really help fight climate change.
I totally agree! While you might think you don't have any input on what electronics/appliances your parents buy, just mentioning to them different models that are more energy-efficient or giving them ideas to reduce their carbon footprint can be helpful. And small changes are always good, even if they don't seem like they matter!
After finishing the carbon footprint survey, I saw that my home living causes a large amount of carbon emissions. Things I wasn't aware of were brought to my attention, and I could see that I need to make some changes. The amount of heat and cooling I use throughout the year is large, and the food I eat isn't always environmentally friendly due to packaging and other factors. Doing small things like adding a compost bin or solar panels can make a difference.
After finishing taking the carbon footprint questionnaire, I thought the category contributing the highest amount of carbon would be transportation or food. Although, when I found out that my home carbon level was the issue, I started to think of ways to lower it. I thought of things such as using more natural lighting and reducing my water usage. Another idea was to open windows or doors instead of using air conditioning. The other categories with high carbon levels was food and then transportation. I thought that walking, biking, or taking public transportation more often could help lower the level but how can I lower my food level? If I rarely to almost never eat plant-based meals and do not grow my own produce how can I lower my food carbon levels?
I would urge my family (and Myself) to take shorter showers
After taking this form, I could get a more in-depth idea of how my carbon footprint expands across almost every part of my life. From purchases to how I get to school to what I eat, I need to be thoughtful of how I create my carbon footprint. I realized that since every person around me creates the same carbon footprint, we're all contributing to carbon emissions an insane amount. I think if every person, including me, took the time to realize exactly what we're doing to emit carbon, we can reduce it.
Hello, I live in Croatia and I need recommendations how to lower my carbon footprint. The carbon produced in my home is higher than average. In my house we use gas heating and in summer AC. We recently changed light bulbs to LED light. At home, we grow our own vegetables and fruits. The biggest problem for my family is carbon produced from traveling. In last year we flew to Paris and London and I took few road trips. How can I lower my carbon footprint to contribute reducing global warming?
I liked answering the questions from the carbon footprint questionnaire. it was interesting and very helpful. thanks to the questionnaire, I realized how much carbon dioxide my family produces, and thanks to the discussions during the courses, I was able to find out ways to reduce this footprint and improve life.
I agree with you, I also realized while filling out the questionnaire that my family and I are producing too much carbon dioxide. Can you share with us what ways you have found to reduce it? We recently installed solar panels on our house, and we have come up with some other ideas, such as using more daylight than electric light during the day, separating biowaste more often, and washing clothes in the washing machine at lower temperatures because that uses less electricity.
Even though my family footprint is lower than average in my region, I think that my family could do more to reduce carbon footprint. We are very lucky to have our own garden. To reduce our carbon footprint we could start using less electricity on charging phones or computers. We could use less plastic and less drinkable water on washing our car and dishes. Once we start doing all of these things, it will help our family use less carbon and be more efficient.
Eu si familia mea poluam destul de mult dar incercam sa mai reducem deșeurile care pot afecta natura.Ne dorim un mediu mai curat si pentru noi dar si pentru generațiile următoare.
Familia mea ocupă un apartament cu 3 camere și avem multe electrocasnice care consumă mult curent. Eu sunt elevă în clasa a 6 și încerc să pun în practică principiul sustenabilității. Mă interesează să folosesc în mod rațional resursele naturale astfel încât și generațiile următoare să se bucure de o natură curată și prietenoasă.
Eu și familia mea nu poluăm forte mult nu folosim benzina , aruncam gunoiul în spatii special amenajate ne place natura și vrem să o îngrijim cât se poate de mult
When I took the survey and saw that my carbon footprint is so much less than that of others, I thought to myself, "Wow, I must be doing a really good job!" But then came the difficult task of thinking about my whole family combined and what we could or should do differently to use less carbon. I started doing some online research and found out that there are a couple of things that me and my family could do to make a difference. To start, we could start using less electricity which includes thermostats, charging phones or computers, or even using less TV time. We could use less paper and plastic and start saving them and recycling them when needed. Using less water is also a big factor because since I have such a big family we use a lot of water, so trying to filter it and save it without using plastic is a big factor. But the one thing that would be very helpful is making our own garden. It doesn't take too much money and since we are very big in eating fruits and vegetables, we always spend a lot of money on having to buy them from stores. Instead, we could just make our own garden and have them freshly grown to our own desire. Once we start doing all of these things, it will help our family use less carbon and be more efficient.
I'm pretty darn proud of my house ![]()
whoa how did you get the smiley face?

oh, okay I see
That's a low Kgs!
nice!
Wow, I am very impressed, one of my categories is 6,000 kgs of Co2.
But not the total.
I got 20890 kg of Co2
I would make my home energy efficient by using LED lights, using electric internal heating and cooling, and electric appliances. I would get my energy from hydro electric dams because in BC energy is created with water. I would choose to live near public transit so I can commute to places I would need to go to like school or work in the future. I would get my food from grocery stores that have lower carbon footprints like Whole Foods or Costco.
These are all great ideas to lower your carbon footprint! Some more suggestions would be to eat less meat and cow products, as animal agriculture is one of the leading causes of deforestation and climate change. And not only can you use public transit or carpool to get to school and work, but you could also choose a method such as walking or biking. You can also re-wear clothing items that you own instead of contributing to fast fashion and buying new clothes every time a new trend comes along. And after clothes are no longer useable for you, you can upcycle them and turn them into something new! For example, you can use old t shirts to make dish clothes. These are just some of my ideas.
When my professor asked us to calculate our carbon footprint, I was pretty shocked. I could not believe how big my family's carbon footprint is. So, when we were asked to do this assignment the idea of how my family could reduce their carbon footprint really interested me. I found this article that shows a bunch of different cool ways to reduce our footprint. Such as using less paper, growing our own vegetables and even watching what our thermostat is set at!
https://amerisleep.com/blog/reduce-fami … footprint/
That’s very interesting and I agree that it is startling at first seeing the numbers on paper. I think every one in school should have to do a project that includes calculating your carbon footprint it really puts things in perspective and helps you personally relate to the global issue of climate change. For me it really motivated me to find solutions to lower my carbon footprint. There are lots of ways to lower it, some are expensive and some are equally as effective and cost nothing. I would suggest to start out find what actions in each category (food, transportation, home energy etc, purchases) have the biggest impact and do what you can to change those. This will help you chose your battles and make the biggest dent in your carbon footprint with the least amount of change. For me one was not knowing I could bring reusable containers to get takeout in. Another one was how and how often I wash my clothes. What ever you chose to do even a small change is a step in the right direction for the whole world.
My family produces 116454 kgs of CO2 a year, which is pretty bad. I would like to change that by turning off the lights more often, and to using less lights in our house.
I would like to reduce this number, but I don't know if turning off lights will work. Does anyone have any other ideas?
My biggest thing on my carbon footprint was transportation. You could try biking and/or walking to more places. If this is kind of hard to do, you could try carpooling more or taking more public transportation. Also, I don't know very much about this, but I think turning off the lights when not in use does something. So make sure to still turn off lights and electronics when not in use.
I feel as though we should turn off lights more often in my household. My brother leaves his light on almost all day! I try my best to remember to turn off the lights, but sometimes I don't remember to, so I think I can change that:)
Well, I already bike to school, but yeah, I think I'll start turning off the lights in my house WAAAYY too much.
...
Well how often do you use a heater? If so in the winter you could layer and put on blankets it works has well a heater hope this helps!
Hey! That's a good idea, thanks!
These are all great ways to lower your carbon footprint.I found that food was a big contributor for mine as well as transportation. For food i think it would be great to make sure you use all the food in your home and if some seems to be rotten, there are some great recipes on the internet for food scrap meals and use them as leftovers. Another great way is to buy locally whenever you have the option, although it is hard to find local shops if you live remotely.It is important to conserve water. Reducing shower times and using more cold water will save you money and not effect your carbon footprint as much.
Yeah! I'll try that!
So I have a large(r) family, there are 6 of us. We try to grow most of our veggies and carpool whenever we can, and I try to walk whenever I can, but I was wondering if there's anything else we can do to try to lower our carbon footprint?
I suggest saving energy at home because most of our electricity and heat is powered by coal, gas, and oil which uses a lot of energy. To reduce your carbon footprint, you should consider lowering your heating and cooling, switching to LED light bulbs, and washing your clothes with cold water instead of hot. Another suggestion is to hang your clothes to dry them instead of the dryer. Food wise, eating less meat and dairy can lower your carbon footprint. It's good that you're growing most of your veggies because producing/growing plant-based foods can result in fewer greenhouse gas emissions and uses less energy. I also highly suggest you throw less food away because it wastes all the energy and resources that was used to grow, package, and transport it. Foods in landfills also produce methane, so consider composting leftover food and using everything you buy.
By carrying out this project i was able to calculate my carbon footprint within the society. I am quite satisfied with the results obtained despite my awareness of being able to improve my impact on the planet. In some areas I'm trying to do my best, while in others I know I can do better: particularly in choosing my food. But how can I do it? I could start by enhancing the products of my territory or organic ones, but what else could I do to reduce the portions of red or white meat?
Advice would be welcome!
Good afternoon! Thank you so much for your post and working on this carbon footprint project! One part of my carbon footprint project that I was surprised the most by is that my food footprint was on the lower scale compared to the rest of my categories. Pertaining to your question, about how to reduce red or white meat, depending on where you live you could try to consume more fish or vegetable options. Luckily, I live near seafood shops and places where high quality seafood is so I tend to eat lots of salmon or shrimp. I would suggest you to try that as one option in order to eat less meat like steak or chicken. Another way to decrease meat consumption could be finding high calorie vegetable meanings. For example, sometimes I will eat "cauliflower steaks" or other high calorie meals that can be just as delicious as meat. Some people even eat "Beefsteak Mushrooms" and put sauce on it because it has a similar steak texture and will use that to eat instead of regular steak. I will attach a picture and a link to show you what I am talking about. Thank you so much and have a great rest of your day!
I know I can definitely change my carbon foot print because my transportation level is 8359 kgs. the way I can reduce this is by using public transportation,biking,and carpooling.
!IF ANYONE ELSE HAS IDEAS TO HELP PLEASE PUT THEM IN THE COMMENTS!
If you have friends that bike then go with them. If you have friends that have a medium car or you do use that to carpool in.
Those ideas are very good ones you can try using those ideas as many times as you can and very often.:D
I think air travel is a real problem and we should do our best to find other ways to travel.
Yes, I also agree with that. But you can also see if you can walk more and bike because it's good exercise and you can get places. ![]()
But still even w/o air travel your travel on ground could be very high.
Well, an airplane uses way much more gas than your car does, so it's better to use your car.
At least 100g vs. At least 10g (g=gallons)
If you live next to any of your friends offer to carpool or ask to ride a bike with them this will motivate them by not using a extra car while having fun at the same time.
I've just completed the questionnaire and i discovered my carbon footprint is 5152 kgs.
More specifically, i got: 2869 kgs in "Home", 1462 kgs in "Food", 261 kgs in "Purchases" and 560 kgs in "Transports".
i think that's a good score, considering that avarage, in my region, is about 8000 kgs.
However, I'd like to reduce it in some way.
Respect for nature is something that my parents have taught me since I was younger, and now I'm used to pay attention to everything related to the environment.
Most kgs of my footprint comes form the "Home" section, i wanted to ask you some tips, advise and green alternatives to reduce my carbon footprint.
To lower your carbon footprint in the home section, I think you could install solar panels to lower the carbon from heating your home.
To lower your carbon footprint you can turn off lights when you are not using them and you can also use blankets instead of using a heating system.
Most kgs of my footprint comes form the "Home" section, i wanted to ask you some tips, advise and green alternatives to reduce my carbon footprint.
Here is my answer to this question:
To lower your carbon footprint in the "Home Section", you can use less heat in your home (use blankets instead of a heater), use fans instead of air-conditioning, use less incandescent light-bulbs and more LEDs and florescent bulbs, turn off the light when you don't need it, turn off the water until you need it, take shorter showers, use cold instead of warm/hot water to wash your clothes, compost leaves or yard waste, and put less things in the trash; recycle and compost more.:D:D:D:D:D
you can use LED lights, and an electric heater/AC like a heat pump
You could use air conditioning as sparingly as possible.( if you have it).
To reduce the carbon in "foods" you can make sure to buy foods that you absolutely need, and eat food before the expiration date so you don't waste it.
You could also use reusable bags for groceries
Reduce car use??
Maybe you could bike or walk more to nearby places and if its cold maybe layer and use blankets instead of using a heater? I hope this helps!
I m at 9457 in my carbon footprint is that good
9457 is about average.
9457 kgs is the average and I think if you want to decrease it, you may turn off the light when you not use, eat well, if you house near the school and you should walk(use car when your home is far away).
The average amount of CO2 a person produces a year from GAS is 4.6 metric tons. Can YOU do less?
yes with me I think that I should turn off the light,walk, waste less and eat healthy.
my transportation is very high it is double all of my other subjects like home energy,food,and purchases.
same. Mine was going to be average but then I put down the amount of round-trips I take per year and doubled my carbon footprint.
OK I may have lied with that title because I wont be talking about what the numbers for my carbon footprint are. just.. other stuff. OK so thank you for reading this things lets get started.
My parents LOVEEE keeping our lights on. I will walk into an empty room with literally no one in it and the lights will ALWAYS be on, unless I was there recently, because I always turn off the lights. also I'm not sure if this is on topic or whatever, but my parents didn't have a compost bin for practically a YEAR. It honestly took a lot of convincing, and they still don't use it! My dad also throws everything in the trash. He never gives anything away. OK, now I'm REALLY off topic. than you if you've made it this far. my point is, I wish I could reduce my carbon footprint and have my parents care more about the environment, because I really do and I hate polluting the lovely earth.
oop I had a bit of a typo there-
Maybe I could power my entire my house using electricty, and then use led light bulbs so that it doesn't harm the environment.
You could use Solar Panels and use Electric or fuel efficient cars
you can also reuse the trash in your house
take shorter showers
go GREEN!!!!

you can try biking,walking, and taking public transportations ![]()
smiley face lol
you could bike, walk, or take the bus to school if you live to far.
Thamk you ![]()
you could use your car less and eat more healthy like greens and eat more proteen you could make sure you sort right and you can take other forms of travle like bike's skate boards or anything you like to ride you can do carpool or ride public transe port to.
not go on as many plane trips
My family's footprint is pretty good for the food and the home, but the transportation is alarming. It literally doubled the home and food combined!
Maybe you can ask if you can carpool with people and try biking or another way of transportation like walking? I know my food is not that great because I am not vegetarian but something I do know is how you can try helping your transportation.(:
Another idea is to start using public transportation to get to places.
you can also try biking instead of public transport like cars and busses
mine isn't good either but that's because me and my family took a trip to Europe and the flight was like 16 hours.
You can walk or bike to places instead of using a car.
I think one way to fix it is to use other kinds of transportation like public or bike and stuff like that.but you could also plan less vacations or go out less. you could cut on the amount of times you use the car and maybe use a bike or a skate board if its a short distance.
maybe you can start riding a bike and being less in cars
Riding bikes to school or work will make the world a whole lot cleaner. You could also take public transport or carpool with a friend.
My home, transportation, and my purchases were all under average. My food category was pretty high above the average where I live. I think this is because I don't eat enough vegetarian meals
I don't eat any either and I have mine under the average for where I live.
I checked today and my foot print in travel alone is 6,143 and my regions is only 2,557, now to be fair I have bean traveling a lot lately but I would still like some tips on how to refuse it, wile traveling
It is super cool that you are traveling a lot! Maybe try doing some road trips, maybe staying closer to home!
I think road trips would still waste energy, but that's a good idea! I like road trips. anyways, you could try biking places with your family too! you can buy a wagon thing that I used to have as a kid that connects to the parents bike and you can just ride around.It won't be able to get you places far, but it works!
My carbon footprint for food is 2 times a average person and I don't eat a lot. I should eat less.
I wouldn't say that you should eat less, eat the average amount of calories for your age and you should be good. Maybe try to eat more vegan/vegetarian meals and order groceries when you're almost out of food in the fridge. I don't recommend eating less if you already don't eat a lot since that's unhealthy, I hope this helped.
Maybe the average person just eats not enough?
I think that eating less is not the most healthy option, you could always try more vegetarian meals, maybe eat less meat in one day.
Me and my family try to bike whenever we can to save energy also we enjoy biking.
sorry not "also" "mainly because"
nice job unanimous person, I like to bike as well, but I mostly walk
Me to!
I also ride my bike a lot
i do bmx and bike to school and back every day me and my family bike a lot but its hard to go everywhere on a bike i also go to the park with my friends and we try to do wheelies we all fail though
my family's carbon footprint is pretty low except for the transportation and food, I think that my family should eat more plant based meals and that I should ride a bike to school more often and that my family should a more energy efficient car.
Plant a garden in your backyard and/or find an easier way to get to school also.
I think eating more plant-based meals is a great way to start. Maybe experiment with different ways to go/bike to school.
I hope this is helpful!
Something you can do to reduce the amount of time your lights are on is to always make sure to turn off the lights when you leave the room or if you see a light(s) is on and no one is in the room also turn it off (I do the second one almost every day).
I looked back at my carbon footprint sheet and noticed that my family turns on our lights many hours a day, so I can make sure we turn off devices, light, and water when not needed to reduce our footprint.
with me I think that if you turn off the light it is good .Also you may walk or bike to school.With me I think that eat well can make you produce less carbon dioxide.
With me I think that my family need to decrease carbon dioxide because temperature of the earth get high and this make me that I need to protect the earth.
You can do this by replacing your light bulbs with LED bulbs and turning off lights when your not using them, you can also reduce your carbon dioxide by turning off the water when your not using it and turning off electronics when your not using them. Bike to school if you can or walk if you don't have a bike. It's awesome that you want to protect the earth since its a very important thing.
you can also use a bike instead of cars
With my family I think that my mom told me that I need to turn off the light when I'm not using it.Also I walk to home every week.
I saw that my data of the carbon dioxide is 4777 kgs and the average in my region is 9727 kgs .
my family produces a very large carbon foot print

my family also has a very large carbon footprint due to our flights and numerous trips to Tahoe.
My carbon footprint is really high in transportation because I go on lots of flights throughout the year so I think I should try to go on less trips and not fly in an airplane as often.
