All of you have calculated your emissions and you have surely discovered the unexpectedly high impact of some of your behaviors (eating meat, flying to a sunny destination, etc.) on your total footprints.
Are there any behaviors that you are really willing to change or to improve for the sake of the environment? What challenges do you encounter or think you will encounter while trying to change these things? What help, support, and insights from others would make your life easier with these new behaviors?
Let's discuss these issues and make our pledges here!

goes to reduce my carbon footprint
I thought that my carbon footprint would be somewhat smaller, but even with that, I believe that the best way to reduce it is by buying more local products to avoid transportation.
My total CO footprint per year is 2,954 kgs.
In Spain the average is 6,968 Kgs and worldwide the average is 3,791 Kgs.
My categories: transportation is the one with the least quantity (109 Kgs) and in food is the most (1,645 Kgs). I also consume 905 Kgs at home and 295 Kgs in shopping.
To lower my carbon footprint... I must lower the amount of the food category (example= consume local foods). I should also lower the level of the home (example= turning off the lights and closing the taps when I don't use them).
