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?

If I had my own home and could make my own household decisions, I would use renewable energy from solar panels. I would grow my own garden to provide myself with food and go vegetarian. I would also try to live as close to my school as possible so that it's possible to walk and bike to school.
I agree with you 100%. We all need to try to decrease greenhouse emissions and this is a very good start. We need to start going green, becoming a vegan, and use renewable energy from solar panels and start teaching kids and the new generation to keep this planet from getting worse.
