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?
MY Family Footprint >
Family Footprint
My family is not always very aware of the carbon footprint we leave. In an ideal household, I would carpool often, grow a lot of my own food, eat healthily, save electricity, and much more. However, I feel like families need to be aware of the carbon they let into the atmosphere, and I would like to start with my own family. I carpool with my sister to school every day and try my best to save electricity, but I believe I could do much more.
