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?

Solar panels! One big goal for the future is for every house or close to every house have solar panels. you can have a huge home but have no electrical bill. the ideal destination would be about one mile from my school so i could jog, walk or bike there. Of course long distance travels would be no different but a big chunk of transportation and everyday home stuff would be saved. there is going to be no perfect world with no man made pollution, but we are slowly but surely getting there. some day in the far far future pollution will hopefully be to a minimum but until then we must try to reduce pollution on biker ride at a time.
