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!

Reducing my Carbon Footprint
There are some things that I would be willing to change, to help the environment. Firstly, I would be willing to eat more locally grown food to reduce emissons. This also includes having less red meat, because butchering the meat uses a lot of energy. Next, I would be willing to not just throw all the clothes on the floor of my room into a laundry basket and washing the clothes even if they are not dirty. Another thing I would be willing to give up is to remember to bring reusable water bottles. I usually forget to bring them and just buy a water bottle at school. Lastly, I would be willing to unplug all my electronics when im not using them. Overall, these things would help reduce my carbon footprint.
