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?

How to reduce my carbon foot print
My family needs to drive less and walk or bike more
My family needs to do that too, we don’t live very far from most of the places we go to and we drive way too much, we all have bikes but we never use them when we should
Yes, i agree i also think my family could turn off the lights to waste less activity's.
I think you should use electric cars
Those can be very expensive so walking and biking is an easier for people to resort to
We should start biking are arounds
My family loves to travel, but in doing so, we take many flights. We should start to take road trips more often.
My family also loves to travel, but we are increasing our carbon footprint a lot by doing so. Furthermore, I realized that because there are 5 people that live in my house, it results in a larger carbon footprint than many.
@Finley M, Have you realized it takes electricity to power an electric vehicle as well as batteries so it's no better than just using a petrol-powered vehicle which is more convenient anyway. SMH
