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 Carbon Footprint and what I need to improve about it
My carbon footprint was 8,025 and even though that was a good number I think that I should do more to help the environment. The part of my footprint that was most increased was my transportation, it was 5,814 and the average was 2,557, so I think I should improve that by walking more or using the bus more. Home, food, and purchase were good numbers so I am going to keep on doing the same thing and if I can use less electricity and also recycle a lot more.
