Transportation by way of planes clearly contributes a significant amount to peoples carbon footprint. As a solution or a suggested way of lowering the amount of fossil fuels you emit into the atmosphere, some may propose you decrease your amount of travel. However, I feel this is unreasonable for countless reasons. First, many people have jobs that require them to travel. In many instances, it’s impossible to compensate for not being present, such as photo shoots and business meetings. Some common jobs where travel and presence is crucial include modeling and personal design. Another reason why travel is important and cannot be substituted is seeing family and/or friends. Many people travel to see their families annually, and are not willing to give this up to bring down their carbon footprints. Lastly, it’s unreasonable to ask people to give up their vacations and/or personal travels.
Instead of suggesting that people deprive themselves of vacations/personal travels, seeing their friends/family, and going to necessary business  meetings/events, it would be a great inve stment regarding the health of our planet to design an eco friendly way of travel. There are too many reasons why we cannot discontinue our travels, so instead we should solve the problem by creating cleaner ways of transportation.

As well as air planes, vehicles such as cars contribute greatly to many peoples carbon footprints. Unfortunately, there are no simple fixes in bringing down your carbon footprint from transportation, other than instead of driving you could walk, bike, or run, which in many cases is absurd. For example, it would be a ridiculous suggestion to ask anyone with a long commute to work to simply walk, bike, or run there instead of a much more efficient way such as driving. Even more, suggesting they take a public form of transportation to lower their carbon footprint may even be too much to ask, as it doesn’t fit with everyone’s schedule. The list of examples continues, and it will continue unless we fix the root of the problem- our vehicles need to be more eco friendly.

Companies such as Tesla are producing electric cars which are helping lower carbon footprints, however, for many people these types of cars are unaffordable. The solution to this problem (create more eco friendly cars) is easier said than done. All information leads to one conclusion: we need affordable, clean cars to help us lower our carbon footprints.
