My Carbon Footprint: Problems & Solutions







Carbon foot print is a measure of human activities on the earth and natural resources comparing with there uses on the earth capacity. I scored 2.33 which mean I need 2.33 planets to live in and support me. This score is not low because I used more than the earth capacity which mean this will affect the nature of the earth. There are several solution to reduce my foot print score which should help the environment.

First I scored highly in stuff section with 33% because I own pets which I spent my money to purchase food for them and I have power tools too. The second part of my foot print is the home with 32% I used to live in villa with my brothers and sisters which make my score high. Another fact is Food we all eat food but I eat meat often. I got lowest score in the traveling but still effect the environment.

Some solution may reduce my foot print in the future. First is to reduce my budget in stuff such as electronics products and pets. Second I have to do some recycle like recycling juice bottle and other things. Last solution is to eat vegetable more than meat to be healthier.

In conclusion I shocked when I saw my score because I thought, I will get less score than other people in the world.
