Off the Table?

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.

In my opinion the usage of computers is something that we cannot take off the table for many reasons. First off, computers are a huge part of my school because almost every single one of my classes require that I have a lap top of some sorts. Computers also cant be taken off of the table because it has become the fastest way to keep updated on whats happening in the world. It is allowing people to communicate about the up most important thing just like we are doing right now. Finally I think that computers are absolutely off the table because it allows people to access information they wouldn't have otherwise. For example in some parts of the world there are extremely limited resources to learn about basic knowledge, and if these places were able to access something like a computer they could be opened up to a whole new world of possibilities and learning experiences.

I never even thought about the impact on computers in today's society. They are essential all around the world and are used for many different purposes. As a student a lot of my work is directly connected to my laptop; it's just something I cannot give up. It is hard to think that computers contribute to a good portion of carbon emissions, however, it is something that is defiantly off the table!
