All of you have calculated your emissions and you have surely discovered the unexpectedly high impact of some of your behaviors (eating meat, flying to a sunny destination, etc.) on your total footprints.
Are there any behaviors that you are really willing to change or to improve for the sake of the environment? What challenges do you encounter or think you will encounter while trying to change these things? What help, support, and insights from others would make your life easier with these new behaviors?
Let's discuss these issues and make our pledges here!
Now It's Time for Action >
Climate Change
I believe that NOW, is the time to start acting on climate change. We are witnessing a world wide crisis happening, right before our eyes, but are not taking and ACTION. We as humans need this to change. Some ways we can help are speak up about the issue, reduce water waste and invest in energy efficient appliances. We need to speak up about climate change, because there is no action happening. We need to tell our government that now is time to solve this issue we created. We also need to reduce water waste because the water we use, turns into water vapor, which is a greenhouse gas. To reduce water waste, focus on the little things like, turning the faucet off when brushing your teeth. You can also reduce taking such long showers to reduce water waste. Using energy efficient appliances can also help STOP climate change because using these products, we can reduce the amount of fossil fuels and carbon we release into the air, helping reduce the amount of greenhouse gases. In conclusion, this is a issue we need to take seriously and we need to do it NOW.
