Hello there! I'm Martina and I come from small country Croatia, Europe. I wasn't surprised of my result of footprint challenge that was 6,161 of CO2 per year because I know that I don't do much to keep nature safe. The worst thing I do is overusing my parents car. They take me literally everywhere with their car. But do we really need that many cars? Aren't they bad for our health?  I think there is no human who can resist taking car instead of going by walk. Cars, just like throwing garbage everywhere, make damage to the nature. We cannot rule with nature in a good way, we can just pollute her. Cars are fast and we have to make very little and we are right away at the wanted address. Isn’t that great? It is. But should it be? No! Everyone should be aware of situation in world and the CO2. I think that we should definitely do something to change our way of living. Maybe getting more bikes than we have cars in the city would help little. Maybe getting a free bus-transport around the city would help. Even though we do that, there will still be a lot of people who will go a gainst the idea. And those are people that need an explanation why is everyone obligated to keep the nature save.I may be too young to do anything but maybe I could start with my own home and recycling. When I get older I could help to environment. Probably not the whole world but at least in my country.

I completely agree with you. There are many ways to end pollution in the different forms of the environment such as air pollution and water pollution. In relation to air, pollution can also be stopped by making a bigger transition to electric and hybrid cars which overall use less gasoline and eliminate the gas pollution in the environment. Anything we can do to prevent the levels of CO2 and nitrate in the air needs to be done as our world continued to experience huge levels of greenhouse gases which leads to the greenhouse effect and global warming. We, as humans needs to, rid ourselves of the toxic environment we have created as it continues to taint and poison our habitat. Additionally, the levels of air pollution lead to many fatal effects taken out on the human body as many are put at a higher risk of asthma, unhealthy lungs, cancer, and etc. However, that is not the only form of pollution that will lead to the end of our planet and take a toll on our bodies. In relation to water pollution, we can end littering near bodies of water and organize cleaning committees t hat will pick up trash before it gets to the water. Not only does dirty water affect and harm us, it harms the animals in those bodies of water as they struggle to continue their lifestyle without being endangered by daily messes created by humans.
