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
I think that I spend too much time in the showers, typically they are 10-15 minutes long, which may sound average, but I usually stand there being sprayed by water for too long. I also think that my consumption of snacks that came from plastic bags, or styrofoam containers is affecting my carbon footprint. I also think that sometimes I buy way too much clothing, for example, I think that i have at least 4 white t-shirts and I only wear 1 or 2 of them.
I completely agree with this! Showers aren't really meant to be long, so when I hear about people who take hour long showers, it's really infuriating. There is absolutely no reason to be in there for that long. It's an extreme waste of perfectly fine water. Shorter showers are an easy fix to incorporate into our daily routines.
