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
If I had my own home I would live on the top of a hill or something and invest in solar energy and own an electric car. I would try to live closer to where I work or go to school so I do not expend any energy that I could be saving. I would probably have my own vegetable garden so I can grow vegetables but I would still probably go to a grocery store to get other foods.
