Are there aspects of your daily life that you know contribute to your carbon footprint but you are unwilling to compromise to change them? In other words, what about your life is “off the table” when it comes to carbon emissions? It's OK to admit it- we all have these cherished behaviors!

Off the Table?
One thing that I wouldn’t be able to give up is transportation and travel. My family takes a lot of trips that would be very hard to do without negatively affecting the atmosphere. Although I would like to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide put into the air while I travel it would be very hard to reduce that amount on big trips across the country. I would be able to reduce the number very slightly by riding my bike or walking to places that aren’t very far from my house. A lot of times I get lazy and get people to drive me to a store or park that is close to my house and I don’t think about how I am negatively affecting the atmosphere, but after calculating my carbon footprint I will think about how i am going to affect the atmosphere before I go somewhere.
