I was really shock by my carbon foot print compare to the average Chinese person. The result was FAR MORE than the average not only on transportation, but also on food. Since I travelled few continent last year which takes me more than ten hours to get to the destination. That means I should reduce some my travel plans for next year so that there are fewer flight I will take. Also, it will be another good reason to let me eat some vegetarian meals from time to time

What is the average Chinese persons carbon footprint, and what is your carbon footprint? My carbon footprint is also much more than the average for my country and it is primarily because of transportation as well.

Mine was also far more than the world average and North Carolina's average. Most of my footprint also came from transportation. Do you have an ideas on how to reduce your footprint? What is the average footprint for the Chinese person?

If you want to lower your carbon footprint for food, you might want to start using reusable bags when you go shopping. This decreases the use of plastic bags which will help reduce your carbon footprint. If you use plastic bags, you could reuse them for other things. You could use them to bag other items around the house. What types of food do you eat? Organic foods? Locally grown food? Do you eat more red meat or white meat? Eating white meat is healthier and require less land. Focusing on eating less red meat or less meat overall, will help reduce your carbon footprint.

What is the numerical value for the average Chinese persons carbon footprint? My transportation was also much higher than average because of travel. That's a good idea to eat more vegetarian meals to reduct your food amount. My food amount was too much above average for my area, but I think I'm also going to cut back on my meat consumption.
