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!

Second-hand Stores
Although the new clothes may be more exciting than buying clothes from a second-hand store, carbon footprints can be reduced greatly by reusing clothes. As one person, buying used clothes may not affect the community very much, but together, people can reduce carbon footprints greatly. As Anthony D'Angelo said, "Without a sense of caring, there can be no sense of community." If people care enough to help the earth, than actions like this can take place, making the world a happier, healthier, and more joint place to live.
