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!

Air Travel to Visit Family
Flying to see my grandparents in Colorado and North Carolina is very important to me. I live in California and really miss spending time with them. I do think that taking a commercial is better than when very wealthy people use private jets instead of thinking about the environment. I know that air travel greatly increases my carbon footprint. According to Native Energy transportation accounts for 30% of all greenhouse emissions. I hope to one day live closer to my family but until then giving up air travel is off the table for me.
