Reducing my Carbon Footprint By: TJ Cassidy

Facts In 2008 each person in the US on average produced 9.2 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide. Unused electrical equipment that’s plugged in is the biggest waste of electricity in the average household Biodegradable products are much more environment friendly.

Ways to reduce your carbon footprint. Buy organic and local- Chances are that the food was produced in an eco friendly way, and not transported too far. Packaging to a minimum- Buy loose fruits and vegetables rather than packages, and bring a reusable bag rather than the bags the store gives you.

Another way Stop using bottled water- Bottled water leaves a huge carbon footprint, so try buying a water filtration system and a reusable water bottle.

Reducing CO2 output in your home:  To save on heating costs and carbon emissions make sure all windows and doors are closed and secured properly when heating or air conditioning your house.  Make sure your attic is properly insulated.  Unplug all unused appliances and electronics, especially video gaming systems.  Switch from regular incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescents, which save 75% of the electricity that would normally go into incandescent light bulbs.

More… Take a cold shower! You use less energy, and in turn give off less CO2 when you take a cold shower.

Yet another way ☺☺ Only drive a high gas mileage car. Use mass transit such as busses, subway, trolleys, or eco-friendly ways of transportation such as walking, or a bicycle.
