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!

What I Can Do to Help My Environment
Seeing my massive carbon footprint totals, I have now realized that our world is getting worse and worse everyday because of the way us humans use it. Because of my large carbon total for transportation, I want to change the way I personally effect the environment. Although I cannot walk or ride a bike to my school, I can still do those things to other activities or events around my city. I pledge to use my bike and walk more often than I do ride in a car, where I only ride in a car for school or if I really need to. By using my bike, I am not using a car which emits massive amounts of CO2 in the air, helping to save our planet. I think this pledge will help me to reduce my carbon footprint and make a difference in the way our plant is heading.
cut back on releasing carbon emmisions, like instead of using a car to get to school, carpool or take the bus
