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 >
my family's footprint
My family's foodprint is fairly small. we have a geothermal heating. we turn of the lights in every room when we walk out of it,we tend not to use the lights at the day time and your car doesn't use a lot of fuel. we try to do our best to keep our print small. but is there anything more we can do ?
I am not sure where you live, but where I live in California , in the USA, we have a drought and have to conserve water. You can also do this to help save this precious resource. Some solutions for this are installing flow flow toilets, faucets, and shower heads. You can also plant native plants in your garden (if you have one) that do not require excess watering. You can also water your plants at night to reduce wasted water due to evaporation from sunlight.
