What is a Carbon Footprint? Your carbon footprint is the sum of all emissions of CO 2 (carbon dioxide), which were induced by your activities in a given time frame

Carbon Footprints World Wide

Ways to Reduce Our Carbon Footprints Take public transportation, walk, ride a bicycle, carpool Switch to an electric or hybrid car Less air travel Use energy efficient lightbulbs and appliances Recycle and reuse stuff Don’t be wasteful Eat food grown locally Eat less meat – If your four-person family skips steak 1 day a week [for a year], it’s like taking your car off the road for almost 3 months
