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 I can reduce my carbon footprint through transportation.
After doing my carbon footprint calculator I noticed a vast majority of my carbon footprint comes from transportation. I am not surprised by this because I have a lot of sports that can be as close as school, but as far as Cuba. While I cannot change the fact I must travel will not change, but recently, my family purchased an all-electric car. Now when I must drive somewhere I will not be polluting the air. A fact that stood out to me is that we must reduce our carbon footprint by 60% by 2050. If not our Earth will change drastically.
