I was very surprised when I saw that my carbon footprint was a little over 7000. Although, I still think it's a very low score. The two places I had the highest numbers were home and transportation. I think I can reduce it by maybe using public transportation when going out with friends or even use my bike. This was very eye-opening to me, but I would like to know what you think? Do you have any better ideas? Let me know. big_smile

Same with me, my highest one was home. For me it was leaving the lights on and having a 5-10 minute shower almost everyday. After I saw my carbon footprint above average for home I imminently started showering for less than 5 minutes. I also have been turning off the lights, especially if I'm not in the room. I've also been reminding my family to do this to. I really want to change the future because I want to have a good future as well as my kids if I have any. We need to act now. In my opinion I think we need to get our footprints below 6000 in total. I think you should consider doing the same.

I wish I could get my footprint that low. It's inspiring that you both have low scores and are trying to lower them further. My family lives 30 minutes away from school and don't have an eco-friendly car, so transportation was my highest amount at a whopping 3943 kgs. The average for my region is 2557, so this is something I want to find a way around. Whenever I'm only traveling short distances I'm making an effort to walk or bike, especially since public transportation seems a bit unsafe during covid in my area, but until we have money for a better car it feels like there's not much else I can do.

One thing that would help reduce your transportation would be to organize a carpool with some friends, or as you mentioned using public transport, although I wouldn't recommend because of Covid. If you know how to or if the place you want to go is within reasonable distance, then yeah I would recommend try using your bike more. Hope this helped
