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? >
What's off the table?
Something that is off the table for me is giving up meat. No matter how unappealing you make meat to me, I will always eat some kind. It’s hard to give up your customs and habits for something that seems so small. For things like this, you might not be alive once the effects set in and the change feels small.
Another thing that would be difficult to give up, would be technology. I do school work on my laptop and communicate with friends and family who don’t live near me via iPhone. In this world if you give up your phone, it’s like giving up speech. It can be difficult and make you feel distant. Those are the main things I would have a hard time giving up for a lower carbon footprint.
