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!

Electricity - Can't Go Without It
There are many things in my life that I can admit that I can live without, but it's a question of if I am able to live without them. I do think that it would be possible for me to live without electricity, although the challenge would be extremely difficult. From my own personal experience when I went on a month long hiking trip in Alaska, where my whole hiking group and I were not allowed to use electricity. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be because there were other people with me, but living without electricity by myself is something that I cannot see me doing ever.
I think that the challenge would be very difficult if you are alone because you use electricity for watching TV and charging you phone which are used as entertainment. But when you have other people to talk with and you will always have something to do it would not be as difficult as doing it all by yourself.
I would like to try this challenge because I can get the feeling how it was to people from early 20th century who had no gadgets as we do.
