All of you have calculated your emissions and you have surely discovered the unexpectedly high impact of some of your behaviors (eating meat, flying to a sunny destination, etc.) on your total footprints.
Are there any behaviors that you are really willing to change or to improve for the sake of the environment? What challenges do you encounter or think you will encounter while trying to change these things? What help, support, and insights from others would make your life easier with these new behaviors?
Let's discuss these issues and make our pledges here!

unplug for love
we need to take care of the place we live in, since I noticed how much an electronic device gets of energy when I is pluged, i paralyzed, because we think that it is taking none of the enery we recieve at our place but it is really taking energy. So since then, everytime I am not using an electronic device I unplug it for taking care of the earth.
Good job! I have started doing the same, my phone is never 100% charged due to the fact that I never fully charge it anymore. I charge it only when it is about to die and when it reaches a respectable amount I unplug it.
I agree with what the two of you have already said. When we are charging our phones while we are sleeping a lot of electricity is being consumed and no one cares, so I think that we should change that. Also another situation we should change is that if we have many electronic devices connected to the same power source, disconnect the rest that you're not using and just leave the one you're using.
