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 footprint
In total my carbon footprint is 5700, it's not too much but I still think it could be improved to help the environment. I could achieve this by having the least number of lights on and only using them for something necessary, using the same method with water, that is, using as little water as possible, also when shopping, you should only buy what you need and not buy things that you are not going to use, or we could also, for example, consume less meat and consume more local foods.
I agree with you. Other methods to reduce the footprint would be to use less means of transport, use reusable bags, avoid buying bottled water, that is reduce, reuse and recycle.
You could lower your carbon footprint by simply buying less things, the more you have the more items you need to buy to replace/fix/upgrade that first thing you bought, stop consuming unnecessary items you don't need, and if you need 24 hour service, you can call this local professional, however, just by consuming less you are contributing to lower carbon emissions.
