Many students using our footprint calculator said that they could not pledge to reduce their home footprints because they were not making the decisions for the household. Here is your chance to design your own sustainable virtual household!
If you had your own home, what would you do to make it more energy efficient? Where would you get your electricity from? Where would your house be? Would you live near to your school or work or local transit options? Where would you get your food from?
MY Family Footprint >
"ideal family footprint"
Living with a family of 12, my ideal footprint plan is to install solar panels, use reusable containers/bags/etc, and shop at local and organic shops. It is impossible to only produce a small trash bag size full of trash once a year, but i will try to reduce my families trash to possibly a bag full every 2-3 weeks. My family will use the heater only when needed, and it will run on solar energy.
